Even worse. The single issue voters, or hard core progressive voters who voted independent or wrote in names on their ballot because they didn't get their way. They know who was better for America out of the two real choices, but made the statement of "I'd rather see the country burn than participate"

The faction of the party that formed a PAC to elect McCain/Palin doesn't get to lecture people about jumping ship when they don't get their first choice.

The fuck are you implying?

I'm saying that the same PUMAs who jumped ship and tried to give us VP Palin are hypocrites when they scream at progressives for not voting in accordance with their sense of entitlement.

I still don’t understand. Are you saying democrats forced palin through in order to turn republicans off and are now surprised that progressives don’t want to vote for a candidate they don’t like?

In 2008, when Clinton lost the primary to Obama, her supporters formed a PAC to try to get McCain/Palin elected. They didn't get their very first choice and behaved worse than they accuse progressives of being.

Progressives didn't form a PAC to elect Trump. Centrists did form a PAC to elect McCain/Palin.
