Well, let's start applying your "vote ONLY for a candidate who can actually win the electoral votes of a given state" logic...
If you live in a pure blue state -- like any of the Left Coast...you -- per your logic -- would thereby ONLY have "a single choice" if you're going to HAVE to vote for somebody who can win: Obama.
(And that's nonsense.)
Sorry, X-spurt, in having to break your bubble: But Romney can't take a single electoral vote of Hawaii, CA, Oregon, or Washington. Ain't gonna happen.
So, are you then lecturing all Romney voters on the Left Coast to just give it up since their vote won't make an electoral difference? Are you going to proceed to lecture to Left Coast conservatives an extension of your logic exercise above?...That .. "There" is "only" one "choice...Nobama"...
Well then, looks like you presented your case for voting nobama or is that some ronpaul retread we’re smelling?
