The only reason it's tiresome is because it's NOT true.
Again, if more people voted their comscience instead of being scared by scaremongers saying, (paraphrasing) "If you don't vote for who I want you to vote for it will be your fault if the person who I don't want to win does win and screws our country royally.", maybe we wouldn't have to cast a vote for the, "lesser of two evils".

Your thought processes on this issue resemble nothing so much as the way hard left folks think. (Capitalism/globalism is evil and so I will always be against it even when it is engaged in battle against totalitarian or islamo-fascist regimes. I refuse to act responsibly bcse the world is not the way I wish it would be.) It's an infantile emotional temper tantrum disguised as political principle.
The smart conservatives assess the reality of the situation today and act strategically. Their decisions are not guided by some utopian mental construct where no one ever needs to make hard decisions.
Go ahead. Vote your lofty conscience, Just remember that the next president will appoint possibly 3 supreme court justices, locking in the direction in which this country travels for the next quarter century, If it's Kerry, your dream of a world where no one has to vote for the lesser of two evils will be deader than Hilary Clinton's eyes.
