    They could choose not to vote at all, which is almost as bad. Or vote for a third party candidate, which is the same thing.

      Many people think they’re taking a moral stand by sitting out an election because they don’t like their party’s contender.

      Used to listen to a local conservative radio host. Great guy, wouldn’t let anyone talk shit if it wasn’t true, never pushed any hate, nothing like today’s breed.

      Lady calls in and says she’s refuses to vote McCain for whatever reason. OTOH, she disliked Obama even more. The host was gob smacked.

      “You do realize that not voting McCain is next door to voting Obama and you’re helping him win? Right? If you don’t like Obama, wouldn’t it be better to hold your nose and vote McCain?”

      “I still won’t do it. I have morals.”

      Supporting Israel in this holocaust is going to cost Biden votes.

        This “great guy” was encouraging people to vote for the Republican candidate after eight years of George W. Bush?
