Both parties offer wedge issues they have no actual belief in to attain power. Once there they abuse it to enrich themsleves and their friends.

I favor the D's over the R's because in the rare instance they do something in line with their supposed core values, it's something I want done. The reverse is true of the R's.

Our electoral process favors people willing (if not eager) to sacrafice integrity.

The public seems willing to abandon or even reverse any principle as long as their team espouses it.

Unfortunately for me, I think revolution is almost always a very, very, very bad deal, except for the times it's worse.

I say throw the incumbents out, no matter who they are. At least it will take the new guys a little time to get big money as far up their ass as the old guys already had it, and during that brief grace period the country might scab over a little.
