Your ignorance of the difference is fairly common, thanks to those careless secondary sources.

I dare you to find an audio source or a direct written source where he says, "no difference..."
Again with the pointless arguing about semantics. He may have never said "no difference," but he definitely said "the only difference between the parties is the speed with which their knees hit the floor" when corporations come knocking. Here's just a few issues where the parties have differences: Environment, Gay Rights, Health Care, Reproductive Choice, Budget, Tax Policy, Women's Rights, Worker's Rights, International Affairs.

To say that there is no (or little, or some, or whatever) difference is as asanine as it is preposterous.
