A non vote or third party vote is simply a vote for the Dems/

I don't buy that line any more. (Nor do I buy the 'lesser of two evils' one either.)

So, if I leave the presidential choice blank, then I'm voting for the dem? How about if I actually vote for the dem? By your 'logic', then I'm actually getting two votes counted! Doesn't add up.

I will not be guilted into voting for someone who is a traitor to the conservative cause and will ultimately damage the country more by having their liberal policies associated with the Republican party and will tarnish all conservatives by association.

I guess the logic would go: If you vote for the Dem, then that's one vote counted for the Dem, and one vote lost for the Repub.

If you do not vote for anyone, then that's one potential vote lost for both the Repub and the Dem. So at least mathematically, you wouldn't be helping either candidate in the second scenario.
