I too will vote for Republicans locally. You can send your vote and money to Bush if you want as I did last time. I think that he is no longer worthy. Third party or "throw away" voting can have a worthwhile effect. For instance, there is little doubt that the Green Party votes have pulled the Democrats towards even more liberal stances.

And those votes would have made a difference in that results of the national election.
That is not a new statement, though. People like me repeat it all the time. And people like you have to hear it all the time.
There were some principled people who did not vote for Schwarzie in Calif. last year. That was such an odd election that it didn't cost the election.
The principle for me is easy: Even if I don't get the whole pie, a large piece of pie is better than no pie at all.
