A vote for Michael Peroutka of the Constitution Party, or for the Libertarian candidate Michael Badnarik – regardless of whatever personal virtues they possess, or those of their party's platform – amounts to a vote for Kerry. After all the high-sounding words have been spoken in justification of voting for either one, this is the undeniable fact that remains.

I'll deny that "undeniable" fact, and anyone who asserts it has a poor grasp of reality.

The reason not to vote for Peroutka & Badnarik is that their platforms are wrong on the most important current issue.

"The reason not to vote for Peroutka & Badnarik is that their platforms are wrong on the most important current issue."

There is only ONE issue and that issue is The United States of America. The reason not to vote for Peroutka, Badnarik, Kerry, Nader or Bush is that their platforms are wrong on the most important current issue.

Even Pat Buchanan says we should not be in Iraq. Libertarians and Constitutionalists both want to bring our troops home, sooner than later.

Buchanan is holding his nose and voting for Bush, I presume, becasue he has endorsed him. And I probably will as well.

Republican support for Specter over Toomey still burns me. (Specter says he'll fight Bush over conservative justices -well look at what voting for the lesser of two evils got the nation in that race. But B/C wanted PA electoral votes so they sold out and took Specter. Hell if Santorum can be elected in PA then Toomey certainly could) And I no longer send dues to the RNC or contribute for funds to them, instead I support candidates or Club for Growth A list candidates.

I'll support Swift Boats, Fresham PAC (Gingrich's group), Citizens United and specific candidates. NRA-ILA has about received the last dime from me as well since they also favored Specter over Toomey. Gun Owners of America (GOA) I find to be more principled.

I agree had Bush taken a stance on immigration and pursued an Israeli styled airport security program we'd be in better shape and this election would not be a contest one way or the other.

I am a pastor ... have been one for 27 years. For ANYONE to be having this conversation at this hour is totally ridiculous! I cannot believe that anyone who considers themselves a conservative" Christian could possibly vote for anyone but our President! It is possible that at another time and with other circumstances I might vote for a third party. This is NOT the year! There are three overwhelming issues for Christians ... and all Americans to consider at this time:
1) The security issue
2) The moral clarity of this President!
3) The Supreme Court vacancies that will occur in the next four years!

End of argument!
