I vote for the 3rd party candidate quite often. Just not in the presidential election. If the Democrat candidate was not a douche, I would vote Democrat. I'm basing my vote on the candidates that have a chance of wining.
Depends on what Congress looks like at that time. I dont just blindly vote 3rd party. Lets work on changing the entire government from the bottom up. I think trying to change it from the top down is dangerous and ineffective.
We do work on that. Every bit as hard as we do at the national level. But the fact is, the same arguments are made at the local level as are made at the national level. The same insults, the same rhetoric. Ultimately most Republicans don't WANT to change. They LIKE big, overbearing government, despite all their pretty words to the contrary. Otherwise, how in the world would ROMNEY end up on the ballot? They had plenty to choose from, and THIS is the guy they go with? Mr. Big Government himself?
