And anyone who believes that the GOP is any more fiscally conservative than the DNC has been asleep for the last 8-9 years.
I don't disagree that third party will be hard, but I'm not voting for another party...
Look, there are not a whole ton of people here who disagree with you on the philosophical niceties, but the simple, blunt fact of the matter is, a vote for a third party is as good as a vote for the Democrats. If you really want to help the Democrats flush the country down the toilet, go ahead and vote on punctilious philosophical issues. If you don't, then vote for the Republican who stinks the least, and then make sure you hold his or her toes to the fire constantly to keep him or her from getting lazy and drifting over to the Democrat side of things.
