If you don't feel like voting for either Repugnicans or Demicruds.  Don't stay away from the polls.  Check out your alternatives.  Sure they're all going to lose, but the only wasted vote is one not cast.

Sorry, I didn't include other as an option.  If anyone has any other ones to plug, please do. Big%20smile

It would be so nice if we as Americans could elect a 3rd party candidate.....maybe that would wake up the politicians.

By the way, I went to Ralph's site and couldn't discern if he actually has a named party.  If someone knows better let me know.  Maybe I should make it Ralph Nader Hearty Party or something.

I decided to go for the one who used to represent my district and was a wonderful thorn in the side of the Repugnicans. Big%20smile

Interesting how two of the options are both former representatives from my state...

I'll give Babar credit for writing more sensible editorials these days than his political positions when he was in the House of Reprehensibles.

Ah, to live in a state where I can actually safely vote third party, since McCain winning is a foregone conclusion.  But if it should get close, you don't have to guess who I'll vote for.

When has any candidate ever been any good? Out of those listed I'd be more likely to go Nader, but still would feel....sick? doing such a thing.

Well, he's not running for President, as far as I know.

I think the libertarians have become more insane than the other fringe parties now, and you should vote for them because they have guns and endless, spurious self-justification for using them

/n. really

Out of the choices I'll chose Bob Barr. He's not the ideal libertarian, more like paleoconservative with a few neocon leanings than a libertarian. I've had some issues with him in the past. However, my conscience would not bother me if I were to vote for him unlike the rest of the list or major party candidates.

I'll be voting Constitution Party though.

Remember the commotion when Jesse Ventura won his governership back as a 3rd party candidate? And that was very far removed from a independent president.

When you hear the political machine's nonsense for long enough reason starts to sound like nutters.

That is true. And it is not like some news outlets don't have their own agenda as well.
