They should be smart enough to vote for the one who gets closest to their needs. If they're not a complete moron that is.

The car is moving in one direction or another. It'd be smart to at least move it in the direction you think it should go.

...the electorate can vote or not vote for whomever the f*ck they see fit: that's the fundamental point of democracy...

...the most-effective way to win those votes is to earn them, not to berate the electorate with a presumption of entitlement...

And theyre jackasses for that. It's a civic duty. Go write in Mickey mouse. But you should be voting regardless.

And if you don't then you can just stfu about anything because you never did the bare minimum to change anything.
