That is a good point I hadn't really thought of and I should've because that is exactly what's going on in Alaska. The Democrats knew they couldn't beat the Republican Parnell who replaced Sarah Palin and so they took a lieutenant governorship position behind Walker who is a libertarian, or independent, I guess I don't know.

So the Democrats all voted for Walker for governor who is an independent, I think? And the first thing he did in office was bring in the Obama care Medicaid by executive action. The Republican legislature then, of course, has had them in court ever since, but just recently the Supreme Court told the legislature they have no suit. The state Supreme Court.

So we Dems got that out of it, but now he is cutting the states dividend in half and that is balancing the budget on the backs of the poorest people in the state. So we are back to that situation the Republicans and right-wing loves of running the government on the backs of the poor and letting the plutocrats live a life of luxury.

Stein should work something out with Hillary.
