I completely agree 'FE'. My biggest problem with the Democratic party is how COWARDICE they are when it comes to doing what we ELECT them to do. Believe me, I'm just as disgusted with them as I am the Republicans. Be that as it may, not voting ISN'T an option for me. It just comes down to the lesser of two evils I suppose (
