I hope not, but I am afraid Moore is going to win.
It’s interesting that Republican voters are all “We’re not interested in your identity politics”
are they?
Yes. I remember someone saying specifically that during the Presidential elections.
it really seems to be more a case of (i don’t like the other candidate, so at least lets vote for my party) which quite honestly, is pretty easy to understand.
Well, these days “I don’t like the other candidate because…” usually comes down to “I don’t like them because they’re not on my team. Now let me attach legitimate-sounding reasons why after I’ve already made up my mind and can’t be deterred from it. Also if you shoot holes in my reasoning, I’ll just find new reasons rather than reconsider my views.”
I believe that’s some sort of fallacy. I forget which kind. JEDIT: Rationalization.
