Yeah, no. I wouldn't vote for a Republican president in a million years, but wow, no. The president is not a monarch and an election is not a moral referendum -- a lot of people hate Romney's social platform but voted for him anyway because they assumed that he will be able to help the economy in the way they want, and at the same time assumed he won't be able to magically set women's and gay rights back a hundred years.

Now, whether they're right about that assumption or not is fairly irrelevant, since most people aren't political experts.

We're not dealing with a logical person, here. We're dealing with one of those lovely folks who has given completely into his/her cognitive illusions and who thinks that his/her party can do no wrong and that everyone on the other side is stupid and/or evil.

You shouldn't vote at all if you only vote party lines.

The problem with the two-party system is that you basically have to vote party lines. I'm not saying that automatically voting for a Democratic candidate because s/he's a Democrat is a good thing; I'm saying that Democrats tend to be more liberal and Republicans tend to be more conservative, so if you're more liberal, you're probably going to vote Democrat. Not to mention that all these liberal or conservative policies are tied in one another so that if one votes to save Planned Parenthood, one then also has to vote for the tax increase to fund it.

I hate the two-party system with a passion.

I voted libertarian this year partly just to make a statement.

And yet I'm willing to bet you would never vote third party because it's a "wasted vote."
