they're all letdowns. always. except when they're winning big-rear end wars maybe? but when it comes to domestic policy it's literally the way this country was built to be like, even the new deal probably felt like a letdown at the time since fdr had to make a bunch of compromises and congress basically ground progress to a halt around 1938 (for this generalization i cite my vague memory of reading david kennedy's freedom from fear a year or two ago)

I have moved gradually from voting for left-wing parties to anti-immigration (i.e. anti-refugee) parties, as the left in Europe has mostly lost track of issues other than meaningless identity politics and I don't feel aligned with them anymore.

The first time I was able to vote, it was for Rick Snyder for Michigan governor. It turns out, he loving sucked? Anyway after that it was Obama for reelection, then whoever it was that failed to oust Snyder. Voted Sanders for the primary, probably will vote Clinton now that he's out.

Eight years later and here we are. This is what blindly voting for Gore and Kerry gets you. E: Seriously, the Dems ran sentient woolen sweater Al Gore, then a man so unlikeable that Bush, who hid from combat, managed to turn his military service and purple hearts against him, before finally hitting it big with a young, dynamic charismatic black man. Learning absolutely nothing they decided to go with a calculating robot who never goes off script this cycle. The Dems just lucked out that the Republicans decided to melt down this year and run discount Hitler instead of someone with some actual charisma and ability. Not that they had any of those to pick from. Nix Panicus has issued a correction as of 01:25 on Jun 12, 2016 |

i think i'm the youngest person itt so far oops 2012: Obama, very apathetically. 2014: straight Dem ticket because i didn't know anything really about RI politics. so i voted for raimundo for governor.  2016: Bernie in the primary; probably Stein in the general if she gets on the ballot here.

Politics got really ugly and somehow we had a vet get smeared as unAmerican and shitbags bought into it. We're seeing it today with McCain. Kerry kept on the issues, but the climate was just too many people willing to double down.

1998 - (Garry Mauro for governor, just turned 18 and it was my first election / first time voting against George W Bush) 2000 - Gore in the primary, Gore in the general 2004 - Sharpton in the primary, Kerry in the general 2008 -  in the primary, in the general2012 - in the primary, in the general2016 -  in the primary, in the generalAs for down-ticket, I've generally voted party-line Democrat, occasionally voted for Libertarians because I'm in Texas and for a lot of smaller offices like sheriff and county clerk you end up with only the a Libertarian and a crazy-fundie Republican on the ticket (though I've also abstained a lot in those).

glad I'm not the only one who checked "Stein" in 2012. I wish I'd looked into her positions a bit more, but at the time I was just imagining my grandkids asking "pop pop, why did you support the president who killed all those innocents with his flying death robots" and I'll be able to say "gently caress you kids, I didn't support poo poo. Don't play gotcha with grandpa."

1998: JEB! (Charlie Crist for Senate) 2000: W (Bill McCollum for Senate) 2002: JEB! 2004: Kerry (Betty Castor for Senate) 2006: Jim Davis (Bill Nelson for Senate) 2008: B Rock in the primary, B Rock in the general 2010: Alex Sink (Charlie Crist for Senate) 2012: Big O (Bill Nelson for Senate) 2014: Charlie Crist 2016: Bernie in the primary, Hilldawg in the general (Probably Patrick Murphy for Senate, but our primary isn't until August) Also I had to register as a Republican for the August primary simply to vote against my State Attorney who went and got the primary closed by having a donor register as a write in candidate which was some real bullshit. Yay, Jacksonville, where there is often no choice but Republican on the ballot. Edit: I have voted for Charlie Crist way more than I thought or is reasonable.

It's pretty funny to see how many people either voted for Hilldawg in the primary and never mentioned it, or are switching to Hillary in the general after voting Bernie in the primary, considering how this subforum was completely overrun by Berniebro avatars for the past 6 months

That said, I think Trump is so unqualified, boorish, and ignorant, that I'm amazed he even got this far, and I'm sure he would send the country into chaos if he were elected president).
