But you can't stop me from thinking it. Except for the 2004 primary, when everyone else dropped out before Florida got to vote (except for Kucinich and Kerry) I've NEVER gotten a chance to vote for someone for President that I thought would fit my ideals (My first election was 1988, so I got Bush, Clinton, Clinton, Bush and Bush) I didn't vote for any of them, but I got them anyway. I got to vote for Kucinich then, but when the general election rolled around, as distasteful as I did find it, I voted for Kerry. I voted for Kerry because I was voting against Bush. So, that made it less distasteful.

I won't sit out an election. I know that my vote barely counts anymore. Hell, 2000 taught me that, but I think it's the ultimate in "letting them win" to sit out an election because people like you think THAT'S preferable to just sucking it up and voting for the lesser of two evils.
