I haven't chosen not to decide. I've decided to stand for the first principles of the republic, no matter what you or anyone else do.

If the choice offered is between two evils and one of the evils "wins" that is not the fault of those who chose not to support evil. Sorry. Your self-justification is illogical and unscriptural.

“Always vote for principle, though you may vote alone, and you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost.”

-- John Quincy Adams

"Let each citizen remember at the moment he is offering his vote that he is not making a present or a compliment to please an individual--or at least that he ought not so to do; but that he is executing one of the most solemn trusts in human society for which he is accountable to God and his country. "

-- Samuel Adams

“There remains the one standard that has not yet been universally used, namely, the choosing of candidates on moral grounds. A nation always gets the kind of politicians it deserves. When our moral standards are different, our legislation will be different. As long as the decent people refuse to believe that morality must manifest itself in every sphere of human activity, including the political, they will not meet the challenge of Marxism. Contemporary history proves that modern political leaders, devoid of a moral inspiration and relying solely on a mass basis (might makes right), proves ineffectual in time of crisis."

-- Fulton Sheen

We are all “evil”. For there is none righteous. We are all as filthy rags. And one of the filthy rags IS going to BE in charge. Better he who will sin the least.
