I think choosing between them is easier for those who vote based only on party affiliation, conservative vs. liberal, or the candidates' voting records on their few hot issues. Harder for those of us who weigh a number of factors equally, imo.
There are somethings I don't feel compelled to compromise on.
Were not talking about pink slime here.
Understood and respected. We agree; my point was that your full commitment to right to life as a deciding factor makes it easier for you to choose between the assholes. While I'm pro-choice, I can't say for a fact that I would vote for a pro-choice candidate whose other positions were completely in opposition to mine instead of voting for a pro-life candidate with whom I agree on most all other issues that I consider extremely important. Nobody's right or wrong in how they choose between candidates, imo. Just making an observation.
