I’ve tried and tried to figure out a way to hold my nose and vote for Mitt at the same time. I give up...it can’t be done. I’ll vote all conservatives down ticket and leave that line blank. He really is no better than Obama.

Dear Mom -- I urge you -- don't leave the line blank, use your presidential vote to weaken whichever bad guy wins, Obama or Romney. The last time a president was elected on a plurality, he was impeached. The time before when a president was elected on a plurality, he was made to bend to the Republican Revolution. Pluralities have a way of helping conservatives. Instead of keeping silent by leaving the line blank, you can use your presidential ballot to vote "for" a plurality. Every third party vote, no matter who casts it or who they cast it for, counts toward the creation of a plurality, where the majority of the popular vote was "against" the sitting president. I hope you will use your vote and vote for a plurality, to do your part helping to make weak whichever bastard wins, and thereby helping all those conservatives you'll be voting for down-ticket to oppose him once he's in office.
