It's what happens when you've been dealing with the evil of conservatives and the complicity of liberals for decades. It's why I view voting as pretty pointless since the only people worth having that power will never have it. I do it to give myself something to do since I usually just get bored on my days off. However I don't vote for either major party. I look up who comes the closest to my mindset in third parties at every level of government from DC to town mayor and go for them.
