I voted and I'm not trying to get into a fight with you, but I don't know if I necessarily agree with that cliche anymore. I recently came across this interesting quote:

The stirring buzz of scandal
Las Vegas Review-Journal
by Vin Suprinowicz

"Yes, you can vote Libertarian or Independent American. With different emphases, both parties are mostly serious about smaller, constitutional government. For this very reason, neither corporations nor labor unions nor Gaia worshippers seeking to impose their will through government coercion will endorse or fund such 'minor party' candidates, so they will all lose, as usual. But at least you'll have the peace of mind that comes from knowing you didn't actually authorize the next gang of thugs to run roughshod over our God-given liberties.

The other option, of course, is to not participate. The old chestnut is that if you don't vote you have no right to complain about the outcome. Actually, the opposite is true. By voting, you tacitly acknowledge that the questions at issue can be rightfully decided by majority vote, and you tacitly agree to peaceably abide by -- even honor and enforce -- the result."
