I mentioned JQA because in #313 you had said...
“Principles in the voting booth are for children!”
“Principles in the voting booth are for children!”
So you did. And I found the quote: "Always vote for principle, though you may vote alone, and you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost."
But I hesitate to believe that JQA, if he were alive today, would vote third party or stay home and throw the election to Barack Obama just because the guy at the top of the ticket lacks deep conservative principles. He'd recognize that the opponent has deep Marxist anti-American convictions, and he'd hold his nose and vote accordingly.
