Either Obama or Romney will be the next President. There is no third choice.

Either Obama or Romney will be the next President. There is no third choice.

For at least FREEPERS in all but a handful of states, sure there is!

These days, it's really looking like there's only a handful of true swing states: Ohio, Colorado, Wisconsin, New Hampshire. Some would add Iowa, Michigan and Pennsylvania.

Florida, North Carolina, and Virginia all look solidly Romney now. Nevada and New Mexico are lost to Obama.

FREEPERs in the rest of the states (beyond those first 7 mentioned) should readily vote for Virgil Goode.

In the blue states, Romney has no shot of winning. Voting for Romney in those states has the same utilitarian effect as voting for Goode.

As for the red states in the South, Midwest, and Mormon West, Romney will win those states easily. If 100% of FREEPERs voted third party, there's still no way Obama could win ANY of those states.

I would say, then, as of now, FR residents of 43 states have a clear choice...and that could edge upward as the polls show greater shifts closer to the election.
