I’m at the point where, with respect to the three GOP candidates currently left standing, I have no preference one way or another. I’ll vote for any one of them in the general, but I’ll be voting against 0bama, not for the GOP candidate.

When I finally get a chance to vote in my state’s primary (by which time it’ll probably be all over but the crying), I’m writing in Palin.

My advice to other primary voters: if you have a strong preference from among the current candidates, by all means vote for that person. But if you, like me, think every one of the about equally flawed, then write in Palin. I’d love to see her consistently get 5-6% of the vote in every state. For those who protest, “But that’ll just hand the nomination to ________,” I say, who cares.

Even Romney - and I’m not a fan - is far better than Obama. Even if Romney does nothing, a Republican Congress can begin to reverse the damage, without fear of a Presidential veto. So writing in a candidate - an effective vote for Obama - is pretty destructive.

I'm at the point where I might write-in a candidate in the NJ primary. I think our choices are awful. It depends what the situation is when the primary comes to town. If I think there is a reason to choose one over another, I will. If not, I'll probably write in BRUTUS.
