You can define the spectrum however you want. The important thing is that the Dems are very different and very much better than the GOP. Personally I'm a bit to the left of the average Dem, but I'm still very happy to stand with the party. They stand for what I stand for, and they are infinitely better than the GOP.

I notice that you ignored all the differences between the Dems and GOP on global warming, the issue that you brought up. Can you really not see them? I find that hard to believe.

Yeah, you think I'm clueless, and I think you are clueless. After all, you didn't even know that a state.gov email account cannot be used for classified info either. Those experts of yours failed to mention that one, I guess. I suggest getting new experts. Maybe real ones this time.

I agree that it's not a game. People will die if Trump is elected. Hopefully you will realize that before November. If not, I hope we win without your vote.
