re: #279 Aceofwhat?

Agree completely.

And presuming to know that a person is voting against their interests in stupidity rather than in principle, like DrCordell and SigmaX obviously do, is disgustingly arrogant. And i’m one arrogant SOB…i can smell my own…

I’m not sure you’re following here. The entire point is that the low-information GOP voters don’t believe they are actually voting against their own interests. They believe they actually are benefiting themselves, because they do not have the right information. To use Obdicuts example, someone who voted against Obama because they believed their taxes would rise, when in fact they dropped. They may have voted against higher taxes in “principle.” Except in reality, they actually voted for higher taxes.
