115. A Democrat's staying home has the same impact as a Democrat's voting
third party; and we all know how that worked in Florida in 2000.

The reality is the two major parties have America by the, well, you know what I mean. Before you help a Republican by staying home or voting third party, work to loosen the grip of the two major parties on our election process. Work to change the laws they put in place. Work to make the Presidential debates inclusive and REAL debates once more. And so on.

Unless and until those things happen, staying home or voting third party is simply helping out the major party you hate most, whichever one that happens to be.

Also, please see Post # 115, above.
