for Stein. My last dealing with Stein were her attempts to help a republican win as Governor of Massachusetts. As far as I am concerned, she is just a Nader blind mite. I voted with Independents in Massachusetts to keep Patrick, that has proven to be the absolutely right vote.

I am a Moderate, I can live under a Romney leadership. I won't like it, but I will do ok if women's rights are repealed by Romney courts, and civil rights are rolled back broadly. Philosophically, I won't be happy, but those things happening won't affect me other than in my heart. I try to convince liberals that are itching to vote for people like Nader and Stein in a tight election not to do that, but they talk their fucking "principles". What principle are they talking about, wiping out every single piece of progress for the last 50 years? So, if liberals want to go ahead and suicide their cause, I am at the point where I am so emotionally tired of fighting them to protect the things that they claim to believe in that I am at the point of letting them have their way.
