I don’t vote for third party candidates because they have yet to offer one that has been tested in the crucible of actual real-world politics.

And predictably, they all vanish into obscurity between elections leaving us to fend for ourselves while they cash in on paid dinners and speeches.

Not a single one of them has ever walked the walk.

When they offer someone up that isn’t just promising bullshit that can’t ever work in the real would, I’ll definitely make a strong consideration to vote for them. Until then, I’ll continue to vote for realistic goals over lofty ones.

Every 4 years, the Jill Stein emerged from her cave for a few months to talk about how bad the Democrat candidate is before retreating back into darkness.

  Is “the darkness” what we’re calling “wherever Putin tells her to hide”?

Do you have any examples of a third-party candidate doing this?

  He’s saying that they do run all the time, and then when the election is over, they disappear and do nothing until the next election. This is likely more in reference to National races or big federal seats.
