(55,981 posts)Of course any D is better than an R, but that's not the point. Some D's want to end Wall Street's domination of our government, single payer health insurance, expanding SS, cutting defense spending, while other's that call themselves D, because they can, are ok with the Wall Street domination, are ok with minor cuts to SS, Medicare and Medicaid, are ok with balancing the budget on the backs of the lower classes.
So you see, it is more complicated than merely choosing D's over R's. The lower classes can not survive 8 more years of conservative D rule.
And I am sick of the "Lesser of Evils" rationalization for settling for crap. It only means that the lower classes might hold out just a little longer. Sadly, that's good enough for some.
