Have you ever received a gift and were afraid to rip the package to look inside, because you didn't want to rip that beautiful paper or bow?
You decide that you will be careful, and peek inside only to find the ugliest shirt you ever saw that was not even the size you wore.
So you take it back to the store where it came from, and exchange it for something you want. Even though I liked that Bow, I'm still throwing it in the trash.
This is how I see one or two issue/slogan voters. "Oh Look Pretty Bow" The wrapping/bow might be pretty on the outside but what's inside is still ugly. It's too late to exchange it for something you want, so you are stuck with that ugly shirt that's not even your size.
Ron Paul may be against wars and for legalizing marijuana on the surface but on the inside his policies are ugly, and definitely not my cup of tea. I'm throwing it in the trash. This goes for all the Republicans.
Democratic Party is more to my tastes, and it fits, sometimes a little snug, but I can stretch it out if need be.
Oh, Look Pretty Bow!
