Maybe I'm being diusional but I sometimes allow myself to think maybe she's more on board than she can let on, because she has to say things about the mighty military in order to beat the fascist pig. Regardless. As you say, this choice may buy us time, or not if she wins and it triggers civil war and hence ww3 if the rest of the evil choose that distraction to make their move on Taiwan, Gaza, Europe, the Middle East while we're preoccupied. This is why I write about and practice prepping, as you do. We sold our crap and live in an RV, so we have options, because the time is near. Great piece, as always

The Shepard Tone of how every election is the most important is really apparent to me when I'm re-reading the comic strip Dykes to Watch Out For. Alison Bechdel really captured the liberal and left angst that everything is getting worse always, and the panic and certainty that THIS election (1992! 1996! 2000! 2004! The comic ran a long time!) is the crucial one is so so familiar.
