"The choice in the upcoming elections boils down to this: It’s either Obama and the Democrats or America. You can’t have both."
— Rush Limbaugh
And this is a large part of the problem. According to the media, and also apparently the political parties, there's no longer a political spectrum, there's just "yer fer us er agin' us!".
Sorry, there's no party that represents my political points across the board. I've ranted on this before, but I think the two party system, as it has become enshrined, is the worst thing about our political process and should go away. Give me proportional balloting and open primaries, and you'll see change. I don't know exactly what kind, but I think more voices would be heard.
