"Which party would you support?"

Don't know yet. I've only been off the Kool Aid for a couple of years now. Finally gotten my right arm under control--no longer automatically heads for the "least worse" lever in the voting booth.

When and if the array of serious candidates produces a genuine verified conservative, that's who will get my vote. Should there be no principled conservative candidate, then I will simply "no vote" that offfice.

If I had the choice between a pro-choice Republican and a pro-life Democrat, I'd take the second. I cannot in good conscience support any candidate that stands by "a woman's right to choose." The problem is that there are too many of the former and not enough of the latter, so it's an unlikely--and tense!--scenario.

The President will be either a Democrat or a Republican for some time, but that isn't to say that third-party candidates can't make inroads via smaller elections. If you have to violate conscience by voting for the lesser of two evils and there is a third option, why not take that one?

Yes, I do understand that the adjective 'third-party' is synonymous with 'treasonous,' 'laughable,' and 'nutty' to some.
