So yesterday was the primary in Missouri, and I took the Democrat ballot. <\/p>\n
Which I’ve been known to do when a Republican incumbent is relatively safe. In 2004, I probably voted for Joe Lieberman.<\/p>\n
It’s not so much an Operation Chaos sort of thing, but rather I like to vote for the person whom I would think would make the least bad Democratic president.<\/p>\n
So I voted for Tulsi Gabbard yesterday.<\/p>\n
I mean, amongst the people remaining in the Democratic primary race, she’s the least crazy. Also, she could probably beat me in a push-up contest.<\/p>\n
This headline makes it sound like I was somehow cheating: Missourians will need to declare party affiliation for Tuesday\u2019s presidential primary<\/a>, but that’s not the case. You just ask for the ballot. You don’t declare yourself affiliated with the party or anything.<\/p>\n It must have been the first time I’ve voted for a woman for president since Michele Bachmann wasn’t on the ballot here in 2012.<\/p>\n Regardless of who wins in November, I’ve inoculated myself against all criticism as I can say, “Don’t blame me; I voted for Tulsi.”<\/p>\n
