It occurs to me that this election is about the voters, more than the candidates. The
Republicans are now the party of conservative rich old
white guys. The Democrats are the party of everyone else. If the party
of the conservative rich old white guys wins, everyone else will be shut
out, possibly even denied the vote. Seen that way, there's a clear and
simple choice. We are fighting over the basic rights of citizens of a
democracy, and while the
major parties have moved closer together, their voters have not. In the
voters, I think, the hope lies; not in the party leaders.
Croak!
