    I can’t remember where i heard it.

    “we don’t elect our leaders, we elect our opposition”

    IE, we elect the best candidate we have (within limits), and assume they’ll shill/compromise/be bribed… no elected official is beyond criticism.

    this isn’t sports, is the management of the state we live in.
