Election Day is tomorrow. Matt Forney put up a post at Return of Kings about why American men should refuse to vote. I think he's right. I haven't been able to get excited about voting for a long time.
As Mark Twain said, if voting made a difference, they wouldn't let us do it.
The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one, perhaps, of the Right and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea acceptable only to the doctrinaire and academic thinkers. Instead, the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can "throw the rascals out" at any election without leading to any profound or extreme shifts in policy.
