I’m not too worried about it. The country is in a different place than it was in 2000 when Nader ran as a Green. Not just a more polarized electorate, but a far wider gap between the GOP (especially if Trump is still running) and whoever we get as a Dem candidate.

“They’re both the same, so vote for me I’m different” isn’t an argument that’s going to fly in this election.

Mary Fallin has a better chance being Washington’s governor.

I hope you’re right. We still seem to have quite a few Bernouts.

For the love of heaven. If we’re going with a pure ego-stroking contest, can we pass an amendment to make the presidential campaign happen on this stupid new show The Mask, and only get to see the winner afterward?

If this clown siphons off Democratic votes then we deserve to lose.

Recall fewer than two years ago the insufferable Michael Moore said the Democratic party should nominate Tom Hanks or Oprah Winfrey.

I and many other customers at Costco the other day saw a big pickup parked crossways near the front door, blocking a walkway too!

Guess whose bumper sticker his truck was bearing.

Another Bernout showed his real stripes.

Never understood the cult. Their coffee tastes green for the lack of a better description, overly bitter and my stomach aches after having one. Which means almost never.

Anyone who says he’s a Democrat, but is running as an Independent doesn’t want the Democrat to win. The question is why?

Go for it, but don’t tell us that there is no difference between Ds and Rs.
