    Pretty much everyone can agree that all this past election was about was the lesser of two evils. Obama was a corporatist whore that not only ignored the liberal economics he was first elected to support, but was outright hostile to them in his policies. Mitt Romney was also a corporatist whore that supported liberal social policies that (*)(*)(*)(*) off Republican social engineers.

    Neither candidate gave their party voters what their party voters wanted, but most American voters haven't figured out that they don't have to keep voting for them. So we choose the candidate we think is less like Satan than the other.

    Democrats are creaming their panties now because against all odds and what can only be described as the biggest cosmic "(*)(*)(*)(*) all uh y'all!" since the Holocaust, they still managed to kick Republican ass in the easiest election for Republicans to win in history.

    But Republicans, listen. You told Ron Paul supporters and third party voters that they should vote for the lesser of two evils. Now, I get what you actually meant, you wanted them to vote for Romney and Republicans. But the problem is, everyone may not agree with you on who or what the "lesser evil" is.

    For example, it's pretty inarguable that the main source of our economic crisis is corporatism. Some people ignorant of the meanings of words call it a variety of different things. Socialism, Marxism, communism. But it's corporatism. Corporatism (in this context) is when the government and business collude together. Like Obamacare, for example, which is one giant government hand-out to insurance companies.

    Now, look to the other side. Mitt Romney is a businessman. He's not exactly an honest one. So if government colluding with business is a major reason we're having our economic crisis...why would anyone (besides you guys) think it's a good idea to put a dishonest businessman in charge of the government when business collusion with government is the problem to begin with?

    To sum up my point: if you're going to use "vote for the guy that is a tiny bit less evil than the other guy" as your argument for why you should get a person's vote, don't get mad if they have a different idea on who (or what) that lesser evil is.
