If you vote for a third party, your vote goes effectively to the tyrant in chief. He has already proven himself lawless in every respect putting himself above the Supreme Court, the congress, and our Constitution and the will of the people.
On the other hand, if he is defeated, you may have the opportunity to do what most of us are trying to do. That being to get the professional RINO's out of the Republican party which is filled to overflowing with hypocritical self serving bastards. And in the future we may have the chance to form a third party with more clout so that the entrenched will simply fade away.
But if this tyrant remains in office, you may not get to vote in another election... period.
It is far better to make every effort to oust a known scoundrel and tyrant before he does anymore damage as opposed to letting him continue his rampage of destruction. At the least that would insure another opportunity for you to vote for someone who you do approve in the future.
We the people are sick and tired of repubs that are so very liberal. and demoncrats who wish to rule over us. Remember? This Republic and its constitution belong to YOU, not those temporary hirelings. I find both parties to be putrid. I hope people understand that I don't have a horse in this race. I just want this Socialist tyrant gone before the remainder of my freedom is gone.
If he goes, then perhaps we will have a chance to elect a Ron Paul or someone else we prefer as opposed to just pissing away our vote and our freedom. Simple, huh?
As much as you realize that both parties are screwing us, I'm surprised to see you come to this conclusion. Obama has done a lot of freedum wittling for sure, but you can't say that he isn't following a pattern that bush/cheyney started (or continued...). We've seen that both parties work for the same masters, so how is voting for one evil any better than voting for another??
I'm registered and voting green. They have a better track record both personally and politically, and their candidates live by their charter. If nothing else, maybe my vote is a throw-away vote, but my conscience is clean, I will vote for the best person for the job, regardless that the media tells me I have to vote for one evil bastard or another evil bastard.
I'm voting FOR something, not AGAINST something. It feels good to say that. Feels even better to do it.
If nothing else, count mine as a vote of dissent.
