I don’t typically rely on Yahoo News for this stuff, but it looks like Americans are not looking favorably on the republicans’ inability to pick a leader.

It absolutely blows my mind that anyone with even a passing knowledge of current events and two brain cells to rub together could blame anyone but Republicans for this. I guess you could argue that the Democrats "should" just help the Republican nominee that has a plurality for the good of the country. That's about it though.
