It speaks to the larger issue of a two party system. Until enough people get pissed at partisan politics, no politician will make it 'easier' to elect someone who isn't a dem or repub. They are interested in keeping their jobs and their lobbying dollars, not the good of the people.

I'm independent but have never voted democrat, but I hope the repubs fail miserably here, and maybe with minority status they'll start to get the idea.

It's frustrating looking at the repubs dealing with the maes situation. The people voted for him, and now it's obvious he can't beat hick, so now the right is doing everything it can to get someone else on the ballot, see:tancredo. Obviously if voters wanted a different candidate they would have voted for them. To blatantly go against the wishes of voters is absurd to me, just like the prosecutors in cali and ericholder, who say they'll continue to arrest marijuana users even if prop19 passes.

But you should be hating all politicians, not just the right. Many on the left are responsible for the issues you face with regards to your healthcare, don't act like anyone is on 'our side' as patients.
