He lost me when he returned Winston to the Brits. What? You couldn't have just thrown a sheet over it and stuck it in the attic, dragging him out when the Queen pops in for a visit??

WOW! You, who claims that voting for a lesser evil is NOT voting now claims that none is an acceptable choice?
Since you choose to chime in I will too and opine I'm very grateful not everyone, and apparently most voters, don't think like you you. Happy now?

2012 ain't gonna be like 2008. Less enthusiasm, no perceived change, more war, still have Stasi Act, Afghanistan and Iraq, ACORN gone, SEIU embroiled over a RICO lawsuit, a possibly costly primary against Hillary, depleting re-election funds.
None is perfectly acceptable choice. I didn't say it was a vote. It sends a message like 2010 did, and like 2008 did when libertarians refused to show for McCain. Party liners will likely try to guilt the "none of the abovers" into showing up. Some like Jill will give a verbal smackdown to folks like Upton. Some will try bargaining and reasoning with them. I don't think it'll work as it may serve to alienate even further.

Good, you just stay home because you have this weird idea that making a choice, even for the lesser evil, isn't voting. And don't complain about what you get.
Meh, that's one thing going against the party rather than a dozen. I go with the numbers.

It's not only my idea, it's many others. Enough to make a difference last year and enough to make a difference next year.
What do they say about insanity? Same thing over and over ("voting" lesser of two evils) expecting different results?
Then, I ask again, whom do you propose we vote for? Give us somebody to vote for.
Ummm,it is a few years away...how about looking at the various other parties,find one that suits you,and vote for them?
Or is that too much like 'throwing your vote away'?
I find when a person can put their principles on hold just so they can vote for a candidate that has a better chance of winning pretty sad....to me it means that person HAS no principles.
Jill61 - Thanks for the list of reasons I still support President Obama despite his continuation of the Petroleum Wars. Now if we can get some, preferably all, of the latest bunch of RW lunatics out of Congress in 2012 this country would have a better chance of economic recovery.
Ahh,here it comes out.
Killing brown people for oil,while bad,isn't worth losing any sleep over.
Well perhaps the families of those Obama is killing in various nations around the world,their families might have lost some sleep.
So much for principles.
