For those complaining about Andrea:

I have no problem with her choosing the Governor over Rick's group. She's been away from that group for a long time. It's fundamentally changed, adding new members. The people who she was most attached to in the group (Dale and her sister) are dead. She's now, evidently, in love with the governor (as dumb as that is). On top of that, it's a hell of a lot more interesting, to me, if she makes a conscious and, eventually, informed decision to join up with the governor than if she realizes the governor is evil, then comes running back to Rick and Co. Way more cool to see her eventually become an antagonist along with the Governor, officially switching sides.

It makes things a lot more grey in the world. We know that the ends justify the means in this world for both groups. We've seen it time after time. As such, the governor, while definitely more "evil" than Rick as a leader, is still just trying to protect his group and have them prosper. He just does so via preemptive strikes on other groups and social manipulation.
