Don't vote D or R this year.

Please please please send a message to the politicians of our two major but decaying parties.

I have decided that I don't like either party this year. At first I leaned towards Obama, but then I realized he's just a democratic version of Bush with a sketchy background. So then I was happy to see McCain going for it, even happier he chose a female gov from a state on the west coast - but now the way they're going about it I think it could be a dangerous team.

So I'm done, I just don't want either side.

I'm voting Libertarian this year.

You should too. Or vote Green.

I think Libertarian is what Republican used to be, and Green is what Democrat used to be. We need a clean sweep.
 
I won't reward the libertarians with my vote this year seeing as they've decided to choose Bob Barr to represent them. Lunatics. That, and this year, I realllly don't want the republicans to win.

Yeah Bob Barr. Real winner there. No thanks.

Meh. I don't care who really is running for the party. I just want to shock the dems and repubs so they can get their act together.
 
I don't really like either major party candidates all THAT much - but I like both of them more than any 3rd party candidate. If I'm gonna throw my vote away, it will be for someone I actually like.

Its that thinking that will keep us in this infinite cycle of worthless politicians. If the anandtech effect can bring down sites, can't it be used for the better good? 😀
 
Join the other half of America that doesn't vote. As long as the Republicans win by one vote they don't give a crap what you do. 'Shock the other parties' What a laugh.

Because doing that worked well in 2000, didn't it?

Its obvious you've made up your mind who you will vote for every time. Maybe we need some kind of auto-vote feature that people can sign up for when they no longer think for themselves. 😉
 
Americans' head would explode if they have to deal with a 3rd party system.

2 is the max. # they can even deal with in their head.

 
No thanks, I'd rather just not vote at all. You guys have fun running the country. Wake me up when things improve.

Not surprising something like that would come to your mind since you started this thread to do all my thinking and tell me how to vote. Sorry, but I do my own thinking and have posted exhaustively in other current threads here about fools like you who waste their vote.

Let me sum up how the situation looks to me.

1. We have just been through 8 years of total disaster, the worst Presidency the US has ever seen, and 6 years of Republican control in which they took us from surplus into massive debt. Our situation is now extremely serious.

2. A Democrat or a Republican will win the coming election, no other Presidential candidate has the slightest chance.

3. McSame is a 90% Bush clone.

4. If Obama wins he will have a Democratic congress and a rare rare opportunity to actually pass legislation.

5. For these reasons only Obama has any chance at all of actually bringing real change.

6. Only a moron, given these facts, would vote for anybody but Obama.

To my mind you are essentially immature and irrational. You care more about your dissatisfaction with politics and politicians, your petty bitches, than you do about the real welfare of your country. There is only one road any thinking mind can take and you don't want to. You, however, have the company of millions of other fools who can't think clearly.
 
I felt that way back in 2000 and wasted my vote on Ralph Nader. I was prepared to vote for Al Gore but Lieberman just drove me away.

I'm still undecided this year.

Thank you for taking time to educate me in this non serious thread. 😀

You will happy to know I do have a strong lean towards Obama, because of #5 - but, historically our country has benefited from having a president the opposite party of the congress majority. You should know this by the very nature of #1 - only a #6 would deny this. 😉

If expansion of government is real change, you really were born yesterday.

I hope you learned your lesson and won't make the same mistake in this election.

Edit:
Hmm...
From Colorado...Very interesting.

Why, what do you mean, it worked for Russia, China, and Germany, didn't it? 😀
 
If expansion of government is real change, you really were born yesterday, muttered the idiot to the loon in the mirror as if he had something meaningful to say.
