From the Cherry Hill Courier Post:
Our two-party system is really a one-choice system as it relates to the voter. If you fear the Republicans or just strongly reject them on principle, then you must vote Democrat, regardless of the specific candidate, how far the party has drifted from its traditional ideology or the well-publicized "boss" system common in New Jersey politics. You must vote for the Democrats to prevent "spoiling." The Democrats know it. And because they are virtually guaranteed of being re-elected in most of the blue states, they have no reason to change a thing.
They own you, or at least they own your vote. It's the same for Republicans who own the voters who hate and fear liberals. And the two parties are united in their effort to crush independents so each can retain the loyalty of its respective base without having to earn that loyalty.... [more]
