The line I tend to use is that voting isn’t marriage, it’s taking the bus. You don’t pick your soulmate, you get on the bus that will take you closer to the destination you want.
And outside of elections you work to push the destinations that matter to you. Bothsiders are usually people who either do NOTHING between elections and then whine that there aren’t any perfect options, or people who work really hard on issues and get frustrated that there are no perfect options. I have no sympathy for the former, and am endlessly exasperated with the latter.
