That only perpetuates DLC-type Democrats. The line has to be drawn somewhere. Spending just as much as Bush on wars, ignoring the environment or worse, condoning torture, trashing civil liberties, not addressing outsourcing,without which we will never have jobs back, not acceptable.

You would be right if this were Bush vs. Gore. But this is someone who is basically an old style Republican (i.e., sane but unfeeling) vs. nuts. This lesser of two evils theory has allowed the DLC types to drive the party further and further right for years.

If we're ever going to elect an actual Democrat again, people have to say these DINOs are unacceptable by voting third party or writing in (not by not voting, which only sends the message of apathy.)
