10. I don't follow the (D) jersey principle, though of course it's (D) over (R)

The shoutdowns of "not now, 2014" are what I find the weirdest as well. I just doesn't make sense. I agree that given the system in place at the moment, waiting past 2014 to even start the discussion is taking a very big gamble.

I guess it's safe to say I would not vote for Hillary in a primary. I'd be more than happy to vote for a woman - I'm gonna write a post on 'the revolution is feminine' soon - but any vote that enables the status quo in my view perpetuates an inverted totalitarian state with rather frightening power.

By the way, thanks for all your recs. OPs of mine always get more or less the same 20 recs, be they about the NSA or the TPP or "radical" alternatives. That's both encouraging and frightening.
