Jolted from an apathetic repose,

As a supporter of well inentioned candidates, I find it
insulting to have it suggested that I now come join the
lusers I rejected in the first place. I'd rather know
that I supported my choice of candidates through the
election, win or lose than join the lemmings spouting
off soundbites as they rush blindly over the cliff for
the opportunity to be in the first splatter. I'd rather
use a Ouji board to choose than have to live with admiting
to my self that I voted for either Mr. Bill or Bob-o-link.
That has to be about the sorriest plea I've heard yet. "Hey
we have no ideology, why should you; you'll lose anyway?"
Better to lose than be a luser. Uh, can I get one of those
beenies with a propeller if I reconsider?
