    50/25/25, huh? So that must account for Republican/Democrat/Left of Democrat -Where do you think the Libertarians stand in all of this? Do you think the Democrats lost this election because of third parties or was it because a significant chunk of former Democrat voters chose to stay home altogether? If former Democrat voters chose to stay home, then I ask you why?

      Well, it’s because democrats are dumb and didn’t show up. Either way it would have been closer than last time.

        That statement calls for self reflection. Maybe it’s not the disenfranchised, refuse to go further right voters aren’t the “dumb” ones. Insanity is doing the same things over and over, expecting different results. Maybe it’s time to roll up our shirt sleeves and pant legs and get to work for something better. We deserve it and we’re worth it, maybe it’s time to develop serious worth and stand on it, ten down.
