Reply #124: No, I vote for people because they share most or all of my positions.

And anyone who thinks Hillary is going to be exactly like McCain, Giuliani, Romney, etc., is a freaking idiot.

You put all your chips on whichever major party you agree with that has at least a decent chance of winning. Once they do win, you get on them about living up to their promises.

However, you do NOT vote for some other 3rd party out of spite -- it accomplishes nothing, since those candidates will never win anyway, and yes, it allows Republicans a bigger lead, no matter how much of a canard you think it is.

And don't dare lecture me about how I don't want change. I do want change, and I recognize the only way to effect that is to, I don't know,vote for the Democrats.

But you go have fun with your Dem bashing. The Republicans will thank you for their 2008 victory.
