29. Please, please don't
I voted self righteously for a 3rd party candidate in a presidential election and got Reagan. Yeah, I know he was gonna win anyway but that made me sick. Also, I met the man I voted for a few months later. I said to him "I voted for you." He (that was John Anderson, btw)looked at me like he couldn't care less and didn't even respond.

I vowed then and there to devote myself to alternate candidates in the primary, but swallow hard and vote for the Dem in the general. I was tempted during a state race for governor a few years back but "got real" and voted Dem.

I do understand liberals dislike of Hillary. I'm not in favor of some things she's done or said either, but look what a horrible mess Bush has made of this country. For all of Hillary's faults, I really don't think she would bring one tenth of what these neo cons are doing to us.

But ya know, Hillary ain't gonna be the candidate anyway!
