Lets this be a lesson to any Democrats or left leaning independents

that think it is okay to vote for republicans sometimes. Never ever trust republicans no matter how much they pretend to be moderate.

3. AMEN

How many times have we learned this lesson when a "nice, moderate republican governor" appoints a replacement senator

4. This happens so often in local elections

Like here in PA for State Sen. Marguerite Quinn. Huge billboards in green and yellow. Ads all over FB. NOT ONE MENTION that she’s a Republican! So I commented that on one of her FB ads and got tons of crap “she’s good for the environment” and the ever-popular “it doesn’t matter what party she is.” Yes it does, idiots. Check her voting record.

6. Yeah I've always hate the phrase

"You don't vote for the party you vote for the candidate" because it's bull. You better know what the parties actually believe and never try and separate the candidate from their party when casting a ballot.

5. And to the people are the far left looking for "purity"

This is what happens WHEN YOU DON'T VOTE.

9. Yep. Those are the vanity voters. The ones who need to be "convinced" to vote for a Democrat...

... they're the ones who need the candidate to "speak to me" and makes them feel special and "give them a reason" to vote for the Democrat. They're the ones who like to "send messages" by not voting or by voting for Stein.

I blame no-winners/no-losers youth soccer and "participation trophies for everyone". I also blame people like Susan Sarandon. I hope she never shows her face in public again.
