"Agreed! I consider myself to be in the party that supports life. If Republicans turn their backs on this issue I have some serious thinking to do. I've always mocked those that vote independent ("throwing away their votes")."

I've voted third party before, and it's getting more likely with every second that I will again.

Yes, I got mocked for "throwing away my vote". I tell the mockers that I'm not throwing away my principles and conscience. And that's what really matters.

I tell the mockers that I'm not throwing away my principles and conscience. And that's what really matters.

Amen. I came to this conclusion eons ago. The only "wasted vote" is the one not cast and the only way someone should vote is with their conscience. You can't support a party of rhetoric with a conscience. Sooner or later the rhetoric has to mean something and sooner or later the people spouting the rhetoric have to stand upon their principles or be revealed for the phonies they are.

so you would rather Hilary Clinton pick the next crop of judges.

An imperfect republican is far better than a perfect socialist.

Well my friend, I apologize to you and to the others that I criticized for voting third party.

It seems that in the next election I will be following you into the breach.
