Post by: Ben on February 06, 2018, 10:13:49 AM

"The Atlantic" is urging you to vote "mindlessly" - at least if you're a Republican.

Well,  that wasn't the most objective, well-reasoned article I've ever read. ;/

I'm so glad the Atlantic has a plan to save the Republican Party. We're in good hands now.

Different party; at least with regard to the mindless and mechanical voting.

I find it odd that they 1) start the article by quoting some random guy who is likely a Democrat, then 2) ignore the fact that the Republicans have foisted some really terrible candidates on voters in the past and I bet they never said anything like that about them.
