Great article about 3rd party voting.

3rd party voters need to read article Please read this article before election day or mailing in your ballot.

Those that feel the need to vote for a candidate to make their conscience feel better
or vote their beliefs (believe me I feel a 3rd party Nominee is better for the States then either retard for R or D)
but this article puts a lot of things in perspective.

I still stand by my idea that this election is to critical to play the game of teaching the
Republicans a lesson and voting 3rd party. Johnson or anyone one on a 3rd party ticket
stand NO CHANCE whatsoever of gaining the POTUS office. Thus in our state
as a battleground and Romney is behind, your allowing your vote to be taken away from
Romney and allowing oblowme to be relected.
For instance, Ohio as of yesterday was showing around 10-12% of the vote to Johnson on a 3rd ticket.
Thats fantastic, but Romeny is behind in the poles there by around 5-7%.
If those folks,say 7.5-9% of them, instead of wasting their vote on someone who will
not gain POTUS and vote for Romney,
then we could concevably be done with this douche in office right now and
have a shot at saving this country.

I understand your ideaology and your belief structure and that Romeny is rhino
blah blah blah. But to allow your vote to go to someone who stands no chance
in gaining office and thinking your going to teach the 2 party's who have a shot at making POTUS
a lesson, is just something I do not understand when this is such a critical election.
Think of it this way, would you rather sleep with a gal and the public
knows about that that the public doesnt consider attractive, frankly you dont
either, or sleep with a guy in private and only you know about? Id rather
have the public know about me going hogging up the ugly tree.

Hm... not too sure about the last couple of lines, but I agree. Unfortunately, I don't think anybody's mind here is going to be changed.

Thats the sad part when our state is a battleground and Romney is behind.

I think I am just going to vote for Obama. The sooner this country hits bottom the sooner we can start rebuilding.

The sad thing GM2 is that we hear this line EVERY election. So, when will it be time for the Libertarian party (or at least libertarian ideas) to get on the national stage? Honestly, Romney isn't going to turn the country around. He'll still have to deal with the Democrats in the Senate and they'll make sure he doesn't succeed in doing anything meaningful - even if he tries (and I'm not sure he'll make more than a token effort). At best, Mitt will slow the process down a little.

As I've said before, I will tell the pollsters that call that I'm voting for Gary Johnson to try and influence their agenda. Come election day, I'll probably vote for Mitt to help CO go that way.

I'm getting really tired of having to choose between a giant douche and a turd sandwich.

Just what do you think you're going to have left to rebuild after another four years of Mao Tze Bama?

It won't change anyone's mind but I blame the Perot voters for 8 years of Billy Boy Clinton and I'll blame Johnson voters even more than the mind-numbed Obamabots if his vote margin proves the difference for an Obama victory. Obamabots are just freaking stupid -- people voting for Johnson this year are smart enough to know Obama is a Marxist anti-American nutjob without the vaguest idea of what the Constitution actually says but they are still willing to cut the country's nose off to spite their sister's face.

Personally I'm fucking tired of being told every 4 years that THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION IN US HISTORY! WE HAVE TO STOP THE TREND AND REVERSE IT BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.

Every goddamn time, it's the most important election ever. And every goddamn time, the GOP puts forth a shit candidate. And every time we resolve to hold our noses and vote for him even though we don't like him, because the alternative could be worse. And we resolve to do better next time. And then the next time comes and its the same goddamned story.

Fuck the two party system and fuck it's stranglehold on America. We get to choose between progressive authoritarians and religious authoritarians. Fuck it. Might as well write in a cartoon character. It'll have the same effect.

Fuck fuck fuckity fuck fuck.

If one of those parties wanted my vote they should've competed for it. Instead they seem to be competing for which of them I hate a little bit less.

I've not really heard this EVERY election, but then again I wasn't paying much attention until recently... But I have to ask: SO FUCKING WHAT? It'll be time for the libertarian/green/voldemort party when it's their time. Right now we've seen a shift in power to a degree never before seen. We've seen an outcry of communism spread through our land (OWS), we've seen a call for a return to liberty (tea), we've seen our foreign policy turned on it's head, and we've seen, for the first time since 2001, a terrorist attack on US citizens that weren't military- But this time nothing is done, worse than nothing, it's denied, it's covered up, it's lied about. This is the worst administration for the freedoms many of us here have fought and shed tears/blood/sweat for. Reagan put it best: "Freedom is never more than a generation away from extinction." We are looking at that generation, right here, right now.

It's been repeated time and time again, we don't know for sure what Romney will do, but we do know what Obama will do, and can we really afford that? It's time to draw a line in the sand, you're either with us (freedom) or against us (Obama/Communism), it's not just about Romney, he's a small piece to the bigger picture. I don't love the guy, I don't think he's the best we can come up with, but he's all we have to defeat the current regime. I honestly do fear that if Obama wins this election, some way, shape, or form, it could very well be the last election we ever have in this country...

In the 1700's there was a whisper on the wind of freedom, so fragile it could be destroyed so easily. Today we see that same threat looming. What could happen in 2013? 2014? and so on? What would we do if somehow, someway, Obama was able to dissolve the congress, declare a state of emergency and quell any opposition with the wave of a hand? It's happened before, certainly not here, but what's stopping it from happening here? Us. We the people are stopping it. But what happens when we the people invite it? If just 51% of the population votes this way, we the people who hold these ideals of freedom become the minority, and then it truly will become an uphill battle. What would you do if America had it's own "October Revolution"? When the entitled seize that of the workers, and all are forced to live in the state owned nation?
