I’ve been able to vote for a lot of people that I didn’t think were evil at all - even some republicans. I don’t think that we need to frame it that way. I never thought of Obama as a lesser evil.

He’s a good man, but I don’t agree 100% with his policies. That’s what I mean by “lesser evil”. It’s highly unlikely that we’ll ever get a candidate that will line up 100% with our desired political values. Perhaps we need a better phraseology, because I agree that Obama is hardly a “lesser evil” - he’s been a good President with some sound ideas.
