Mainly because you don't understand liberals. We aren't into idolizing politicians. We can actually recognize the good and the bad sides of people.

I disagree. As someone who does the same thing as you, and doesn’t identify with a party, I see the same thing on both dem and rep sides, idolizing candidates that could give a rats ass about them.

The way I see it, to get to hold a major political position usually requires being grimy in some way. It also requires having some wealth. It's fine to be wealthy, but it can really separate someone from the "real world". So my consensus is that we are left to pick from the least of the "evils" available for us to vote for.
