For decades I was a straight ticket voter. That changed many elections ago. Much harder on a voter like me to find candidates.

Let's play "Fantasy Politics", Dave. Can you name a ticket that you'd gladly vote for and also an opposing ticket that would tempt you?

If you don't vote someone else will vote for you.

As far as the primary goes, I have never felt better about voting than I do this time because of Bernie Sanders. Bernie has shown me what a Democrat is supposed to stand for. However, if he does not get the nomination then I will have a problem voting in the general election. I'll vote, but I can't say which way.

But no health insurance to pay for. There are puts and takes, devil is in the details, and do you really trust the guys who told you 12%? It's no more than a guess, that's for sure.

I don't believe he can pull that one off. To many in congress against him. Hell even Obama couldn't do it so what makes you think Bernie can ?

The audacity of hope, I suppose. Hoping in this case that in two or four years public opinion makes a congress possible that will make it possible.

Buh-but, haven't you heard? We'll all get glitter farting unicorns, puppies and rainbows if we just vote for St. Bernie instead of the evil oligarchic Shillary.
