Only if you stop living in some fantasy world where Bachmann is a legit Presidential candidate. I'm sure you realize that you can write in a candidate, perhaps yourself, who agrees 100% with you when you vote. Unfortunately for people like you, you're just ******* away your vote because, here's where it gets tricky, NO ONE ELSE IS VOTING WITH YOU. You work on changing the world one vote at a time. I'll vote for someone who can get Obama out of office.
There are lot of factors that play into the game. Trying to pinpoint a reason why you're better on the road than at home is futile. Since call-ups are right around the corner, try to figure out where you need the most help(usually you can upgrade fielding with D-replacements from the minors) and promote them without regard to option burning.
