You make some good points.
I can not vote for the lesser of two evils any longer, that is what has gotten us to this point in time.
Ryan is a good guy and a fine choice but he is not at the head of the ticket.
Never fear I live in California so my non vote for either Obama or Romney means nothing.
This is something that I’ve begun to suspect about conservatives here who are insisting on standing on ‘principles’. They live in a state that will heavily favor one candidate or another and their protest ‘non-vote’ won’t make a difference in the long run.
But people who live in swing states shouldn’t be discouraged from pushing back against Obama. If enough people in those areas are convinced by the tantrums being thrown by ‘principled conservatives’, we will get another Obama term and we may not have anything left to fight FOR in four years.
