I think I read your post correct. I was asking if you were willing to vote for someone you didn’t fully support in order to vote against someone you support less. That’s holding your nose and voting... something that’s happened since Adams and Jefferson ran against each other and something that some people insist they will never do.
I last voted for McCain, because I liked Palin. After that, I vowed never to hold my nose and vote for someone I don’t believe in, and I won’t. I will always shoot for the bar, and if it falls short, it falls short. But I’m not going to go the political route of “not as bad as” anymore.
