I lit up the Green X for Fred Thompson, and hit the button. Another wasted vote.

No vote that a person can live comfortably with afterwards is a wasted vote. The only wasted votes are the ones that remain home or were cast for a candidate that the voter knows is substandard just to try to stop another. This is especially true if that sustandard candidate turns out to be as bad as the evil the voter opposed.

Getting people to waste votes is the McCain game plan.

In west virginia, he ordered his caucus voters to combine with the huckabee votes in a kamakazee ploy to deny a victory to Romney.

If mccain could not get the votes, nobody would get the votes.

West virginia discards 18 votes from the primary race.

Another wasted vote.

No. It wasn't. It restored my sanity in that I can vote for my priciples of Ronald Reagan Conservatism.

Let me share with you a quote from this great man:

"I didn’t leave the Democratic Party. It left me."

Ronald Reagan

I feel the same about the GOP if McCain or another liberal Republican takes control. Romney isn't a Conservative, but I can understand your rationale if that is who you support. I simply cannot throw my convictions to that wind. But best of luck to you and to who you support.

I mean that.

Even worse, when Thompson endorses McCain it is likely his few delegates go with him. Like it or not, a vote for Thompson is a vote for McCain.
