If the Dems were my spouse, I would have left them a long time ago!

[Dover]

And filed for divorce.

They don't meet my needs in any way.
I've looked the other way so many times I've developed whiplash.
I've given umpteen second chances.
They,in effect, have disrespected me, cheated on me, failed to stand up for me even when I stood up for them and encouraged them and gave support in any and every way I knew how. They rewarded me by stealing my money and my trust.
And then they have the nerve to beg me to let them back in...come bearing flowers and apologies, promises and swarmy smiles...pleading for one more chance.

No thanks. I think more of myself than to continue in this abusive, dysfunctional relationship! I've outgrown the relationship and can stand on my own two feet.

8. K & R,,,,

I understand what you are saying, Dover. I feel the same way.
BUT the choices out there are really only two. For now, I vote for the Democratic candidate,,,,

[Dover]

9. If that idea is perpetuated, how will there EVER be any other choice?

Nope, not me.

Would you stay in an abusive dysfunctional relationship just because no one new had come along yet?
What are you afraid of?

Would you continue to invest in something despite the signs it was no longer viable...throwing good money after bad? Or would you get out and look for a better use of your resources, start your own company or think outside the box?

Your way will never bring any real change, imo. Just leads to being broke, tired and beaten.
Just the decision to make the change will stimulate all kinds of new, creative energy.
