    So the house is the prisoners dilemma

    Democrats voting in fzvor of moderate Republicans is unfortunately self defeating in our current system. If we did a multi voting system probably every election would be between a Bernie Sanders and a Mitt Romney. Unfortunately we have a primary system that tends to reward psycho Republicans and pit them against (generally) moderate democrats.
