The Window keeps moving for one simple reason.

The GOPs vote in every election. They may hate the candidate but if they've gotten the Party's endorsement they'll vote.

The Left keeps waiting for the perfect candidate to come along...

"Perfect"

The left is waiting for an actual left candidate and the Democrats keep running moderate right-wingers who wouldn't have been out of place on the Republican ticket 25 years ago.

“””””moderate right-wingers”””””, only in this shithole could we call a fascist-lite candidate that. Gods I hate this dump

I didn't think that needed to be added. We all understand where "moderate" right-wing behavior leads..

Personally I’ve seen a few apologists for them on here so felt it needed to add that
