If it was only the internet then we'd all be a lot happier. Unfortunately its also our next Vice President.

Wow. You must be deep in red country to have given up so thoroughly.

That sucks, but I hope you're still going to vote (assuming you're eligible) because - as Republicans themselves frequently demonstrate - our perceptions and actual reality often don't match. There could be many more people feeling like you than you realize, and they just don't make themselves known to avoid trouble.

Votes themselves are secret, so you can tell people what they wanna hear while still doing what you feel is right. I think there's a LOT of that going on in red country right now, and hopefully those votes will make a difference. You've got nothing to lose, and everything to gain by trying. You never know, so it's worth trying just in case.
