Are you suggesting that the quality of a candidate is irrelevant
So, if I sent over my 22 year-old cat to run for the tory party, she would get your vote? Has British democracy has come down to this: that whoever you vote for doesn't matter; what does matter is who you vote against? It is also clear that in the case of the Labour candidate, you are content to damn him with faint praise because you can't find a solid enough reason for criticism.
