Voting third party will ensure another Obama term. It is unfortunate that so many people are hell bent on handing him another 4 years because of their disdain for Romney.

I would say that it is unfortunate that the GOP would be so hell bent in keeping the conservatives out of the party that they are willing to risk loosing the base.
Not really wanting to state the obvious, but unfortunately, folks like you set THAT train in motion by voting for Romney, instead of a real conservative. Be an adult and accept the consequences.
The Romneybots caused the pickle. The rest of us are simply exercising our remaining options.
If that doesn't suit you, tough noogies.
There is not a damned thing you can do about that now.
Have you been following the news, tuning in to conversations of Democrat/liberal friends/family, or reading comments on MSM news sites after positive Obama stories?
FRiend, there's a very high probability that a whole HELLUVA lot of Democrats who voted for Obama last time around, are going to abandon him at the ballot box this time. If there's ANY year to risk the consequences of a 3rd party vote, this is the year. If narcissist Obama managed to get re-elected, it would probaly be on such a miserably embarassing plurality that he'd get scarely more than one in three in the popular vote. He'd be humiliated, he'd be a mockery, Republicans in Congress would read the tea leaves of Romney being kicked to the curb and turn hard right, and there'd be a much better chance that Obama would be dominated and snubbed and held back.
And two years later, chances would be even BETTER that Republican seats would increase in a big way in Congress.
The price of voting to prevent a popular mandate (the reason I'll be voting third party) is that I forfeit the chance to influence whether the Democrat or the Republican gets the White House. The price of voting "against" Obama ala ABO is that it is a vote for government tyranny at the head of the Republican party.
I know which price is too high. See my tagline.
