Yes we often choose the lesser of two evils. However, this time, both of the main party candidates are serious evils. Both take us in directions we don't want to go, such as sodomy anbd abortion and socialism. There is not that much difference between them.
Protest votes are not necessarily pointless. Write in votes probably are pointless, as they never get reported. However voting for a third party like the constitution party helps demonstrates how much disastisfaction there is and many votes could be picked up with the right platform. The two parties system doesn't change very often, but it has changed, and sometime parties die out and other parties grow stronger. Remember the Federalist party, or the Whig party?
There is no reason to believe Romney is going to adopt the Republican platform, just because he carries the GOP label. Look at his governorship, his actions weren't GOP platform.
Romney appointed extreme liberal judges as Governor and almost twice as many democratic judges as republican. That's not going to change.
Romney used executive orders as governor, including personally approving gay marriages when he didn't have to.
I agree that no one should be Mormon and that Obama doesn't have a credible Christian witness. That makes both candidates equal and undesirable.
We will experience government takeover of healthcare under either candidates. Romneycare will be a federally incented state program as opposed to Obamacare which is a federal program. But in practice it will be no different.
Both are big government spenders and both will try to raise taxes. Romney did when he was Governor.
Romney may be better on the military than Obama, and will be less supportive of Islam. However, the checks and balances are coming into play. Obama is already receiving pushback from both congress and SCOTUS. Romney won't be. Romney will have an easier time implementing a liberal agenda at this point than Obama will.
If Romney is elected it will be 2020 before Republicans run somebody else. And then people will be angry with Republicans because of Romney's liberal policies.
I'm voting Goode. Not Romney. And Not Obama.
