155. Well good for you.
I'm not going to vote for one of two corporatist, pro war, pro national security state, in the pockets of wall street candidates. I'm not a loyalist (my party right or wrong) and the "we can't let 'them' strategy" is not a reason to vote for anyone. Frankly, I'd rather have someone who's going to tell me they're a corporatist shill than a person lie to me about "walking the picket lines" with organized labor while showing a cowardice and lack of leadership the way O(GOP)bama has. My hat's off to you for the kind of cognitive dissonance you seem to have. Answer me this: how will you answer a union worker who asks you why he was silent on Wisconsin, on EFCA or pushing for more NAFTA-like trade deals. I don't think an answer like "he's not as bad as (enter GOP candidate's name here) will convince many.
