Sorry, I don't believe in voting for any third party. I appreciate that Romney isn't wasting a dime on NY, but putting the money towards states he can win. So what if he uses my state as a cash cow or a source of phone callers. I have NO ego involved here concerning whether he "cares" about my state enough to visit or spend money here. Everyone in the plays the part in the way that is most effective.

While I know Romney won't win NY, my vote for him does help increase the count towards the total number of votes nationwide. That number and percentage has taken on greater importance in recent elections. For instance, in 2000, Bush lost a lot of vote in the Florida panhandle because the networks mistakenly called FL too early, discouraging Bush voters waiting in line. Although Bush did win FL, his margin was reduced by the number of lost voters, giving reason to taint his victory for the Dems.
