Do you know the difference between fantasy and reality? Apparently not. Can you show me an election where a third party candidate won or didn't hurt the party they were most similar to by electing the party they were most against? Let me answer that for you. No you can't.

In the elections I've voted in, Ross Perot voters helped Clinton get elected. Nader's voters always help the republican candidate. In those elections, they might have won their personal ideological battle, but they lost the war. And now, you idiots are going to help 0bama destroy the country. Well done.

Should 0bama win, I am going to have a visceral hatred for you and your party, regardless of your ideals. There is a time and a place for such adolescent idealism, but if expressing it gets you what you and the rest of us least want and are most against, then you are too far beyond stupid to be helped. However, as you pose a threat to the country, I take you very seriously.

Just to add something to what you said. The 3rd party that blows an election usually suffers quite a bit after that. Look at the Green Party these days. Republicans won’t vote for Green Party candidates, and most Democrats despise the Green Party for “giving” the election to Bush. I can’t imagine the feelings Republicans would have for 3rd parties if they help swing this election to Obama.

You’re directing your anger in the wrong direction. Sin is the reproach of a nation, not people who refuse to approve of evil, however lesser the evil is. Obama doesn’t have the ability to destroy the country. God sets up nations and destroys them. If we’re to be destroyed, it’s because we were no longer worthy of God’s blessing. Let’s get worthy. Let’s repent of our idolatry and turn to God.

No need to...you provide one here:

And that was followed up by the Republicans realizing that running to the left (George H.W. Bush) was not working...and that people wanted reform...and the Republicans gained the House of Representatives for the first time in FORTY YEARS!

Had 41 gotten re-elected, we would have been sending the message, "it's okay to lie about taxes" and "we love that New World Order stuff!" (Actually, I did vote for Bush in that election, though it was--like this election--a no-win situation.)
