That's the problem with the 2-party system, isn't it? One party can decide to be objectively terrible, and the other party discovers that it only needs to be ever-so-slightly better, because what are the 66% gonna do— vote for the greater evil?! And there's a lot of personal benefit to the party insiders to be had! Trouble is, when the margin between the two parties is so small, electoral fuckery by the terrible party, and stochastic events mean that they sometimes win.

Which seems awfully familiar.
