Yep. I think it's time to do that, my friend. Let them deal with their own consequences. We can't fight their battles forever.

(But, we can say "I told you so" later on. Be it in November, or in a couple of years.)

Ya know... I am beyond really caring about Roe v. Wade. It's no longer personal for me. Why should I continue to fight for it?

As for the economy... I am nearing retirement. The declining economy is good for me. It forces the yung 'uns to buy in my neighborhood, instead of building in the suburbs. And it drives the cost of smaller housing even lower.... so I can nab a cheap condo.

Budget deficit, you say? Who cares?? They will have to sleep in this bed they are making for themselves. I am getting past the place where my chickens have time to come home and roost.

I wash my hands of this presidential primary. I did my best. I'll now place my energies where they matter.... working for downticket offices, rescuing dogs and cats, volunteering for hospice.

Life goes on....
