I did not say that you have only two choices.
I said you have only two VIABLE choices.
Sadly, you can waste your vote on a fringe candidate if you choose.
I don't see you going 'round to residents on the Left Coast (Hawaii, CA, OR, WA) or New England (Maine, Vermont, MA, CT, RI) or the DC area (Maryland, Delaware) or the NY-NJ area -- or Obama's home state (IL) -- and telling them that "you have only one VIABLE choice." (Why not?)
Do you have some grand illusion that Romney could take ANY of those states???
Sadly, you can waste your vote on a fringe candidate if you choose.
For all intents & purposes, Romney is a "fringe candidate" in the above states. Yet I don't see you advising voters in THOSE states to remain true to their conservative principles. (Why not?) If your utilitarian pragmatic political relativism kicks into high gear re: "ABO" -- why not "ABOAR" in those liberal blue states??? (ABOAR=Anybody But Obama AND Romney)
(They don't give "silver medals" in electoral POTUS races.)
“I said you have only two VIABLE choices”
Ok I see your point. You meant that if I want to vote for a liberal, statist, who worships one or more false gods - or thinks of himself as God- I only have two viable choices.
You are probably right. Fortunately, I only vote for conservatives, so I have more choices than you.
