Take What You Can Get In Massachusetts

SEE HERE There are a lot of things that are obvious, and media bias is clearly one of them. Red State does a nice job of summing up the reasons, primarily the fact that they are all drinking the same koolaid. It is impossible in politics or anything else for people to be clones of one another, but the mentality of the upscale media liberal comes about as close as is reasonably possible. Massachusetts seems like a breeding ground for that kind of thinking, at least in the circles media type frequent. In that environment you are probably blessed if you can get a fifty percent conservative principles. Of course willingness to "settle" for less than what you want is called compromise. There are limits to compromise. I find the principle of voting for the lessor evil at least painful if not incoherent. If they're both evil is it really better to vote for the lessor. Perhaps the evil will be relieved sooner if you vote for the worse, or perhaps you ought to vote for neither since any vote is an implied endorsement of evil. It is frustrating that the public square is contaminated with so much evil in our day and age. It makes being a responsible citizen particularly difficult.
