The problem with your logic is, next November, we will elect a President. There will be two VIABLE candidates. Forget all the BS about this or that 3d party.

One of those candidates will be more liberal, one more conservative. Which one do you want in office? It all boils down to that simple binary question.

First rule of Realpolitics. To govern, you must first be elected.

Your vote is not a question of helping the conservative be elected. It's a question of your vote, or non vote, helping the conservative or the liberal govern you over the next four years.

I will not vote for a person who I believe will govern to a net loss for the country. No amount of scare tactics will convince me otherwise. Until politicians realize there are consequences for their actions, they will continue to take the vote of folks like yourself for granted. I'm not about to join in enabling bad behavior in DC.
