I had forgotten and I am grateful for the reminder. My greater point is, by voting 3rd party we get someone like Obama to appoint someone like Sotomayor.
We can either elect Republican presidents and have a chance to keep the court’s conservative edge or we can protest, vote 3rd party, allow communists in as president and get more people like Ginsburg and Sotomayor.
The answer seems very simple to me.
I agree 100%. If you want to complain about the two party system (ahem Glenn Beck) that's fine, but remember we live in it. No matter how much some people wish to change it, the only thing they do is marginalize their side's influence. Reforming the GOP is an option, a third party is not.
