    Ever heard of the saying “don’t cut off your nose to spite your face”?

    What you’re suggesting is like getting an NFL kicker to kick you in the balls as hard as he can to spite the yoga mom trying to slap you.

      Cool analogy.

      If they have a problem with me doing that, they can nominate someone who represents my interests.

          Now blame everyone who is nominating the ‘lesser-evil’ instead of someone who is good.
