Courting the Backlash Vote?

29 October 2019

I probably wouldn’t vote for this ticket. I expect they are both too deeply enmired in Democrat orthodoxy for me to support them, but they still have my sympathies. And of course their entrance into the race would create serious turbulence in Lefties’ minds, ostensibly dedicated as they claim to be to such notions of “live and let live” (in spite of their opposition to the same principle for those who might stray from their contemporaneous catechisms).

Irrespective of the possibilities of “abusive behavior” or “undue influence” or “misappropriation of public funds” — all legitimate concerns which MIGHT be relevant — I think they both caved too readily to popular bigotry. If legal charges are to be brought, then let them come. Otherwise, about ninety-nine percent of the time, the way you swing your wingwang is the least interesting thing about you.

Frankly I’d like to see more of a fight on behalf of “Keep your face out of my personal business!”
