That's your right, but ask yourself:

1. Has any third party EVER won and does one even stand a chance now;

2. Who really benefits from a third party

A vote for a third party candidate is a vote for Hussein 0bama and four more years (if the Country lasts that long) of his socialism.

As I said, I don't like Romney, but compared to the devil's spawn Hussein 0bama, he looks pretty good.

That is the line has been trotted out since 1988 and what have we got from the liberals of the republican party for our support?

NOTHING.

Yeah, like a pile of cow dung next to a pile of donkey dung.

Third parties arise as split-offs when the two main parties fail to listen to their base by nominating a candidate unacceptable to the majority of their voters.

As such, it is a thundering message of party failure. To keep it from happening, the parties must work out the differences between their underlying constituencies and nominate someone who best represents what the party stands for.

If it were not a real possibility, each party would end up not caring about their base, since voters [like you] would vote for them no matter who they elected. Because of this, the answer to your second question is that all conservatives benefit by holding the Republican Party's feet to the fire with a credible threat of a third party.

ONLY by a severe third party challenge, or at least the viable threat of such, does the Republican Party get the message... They never see the light. They only feel the heat. No heat, no change.

No More RINOs - Including RINOmney!

A vote for Romney is a vote for someone as bad as Obama and four more years of liberal rule while destroying the Republican party....no thanks.
