Because, according to your logic and your statements, if the only two candidates were Satan and Hitler, you'd vote for Hitler because he's not as bad as Satan.

Yep, if I agreed with you that Satan was worse than Hitler, I would. All the while planning the next revolution---which, in this hypothetical, would be easier against Hitler than against Satan.

Would I like it? No. But I would not turn the country over to Satan, whom you and I are agreeing is worse for the country, saying "we deserve it."

What we deserve is patriots who face reality and realize that on Election Day, it's not the time or place to waste your vote in a futile act of protest that accomplishes NOTHING except to hand power to the worse candidate.

Please answer this question for me. In your hypothetical, do you think by refusing to vote for Hitler, you would have no responsibility for the fact that Satan was elected? How would that work for you?

Unless Thompson or Tancredo win the Republican nomination, I can't see myself voting.

If Hillery is elected, if scores of corrupt, do-nothing Republican politicians lose their jobs and their dignity, then maybe they'll grow some a) ethics and b) backbone for the next elections.

I guess we'll have to see. But so far, your strategy hasn't gotten us anything. After all, we've been saddled with Jorge Busho for going on eight years. Not much of an alternative.

You say the demonRats are worse? How so? Condi Rice is pro choice. Cheney is pro homosexual. Bush is pro criminal immigration.

I have a hard time seeing the point to all this. Cause no matter how I vote (post Reagan era) it's all been bad.
