I'm supporting 3rd party, ok?
    #9110383 -

I haven't decided who yet.  Tell me who you'd vote for in this election if you decided that you would not vote Democrat or Republican.  Make up my mind for me.

None of the third parties are too attractive to me this time around. I tend to go libertarian, but bob barr doesnt seem to cool.

From your posts I assume you would want to vote for the green or socialist party, check out their candidates.

Voting 3rd party, in a 2 party race, is akin to not voting at all.

Decide who you like the least, between Obama and McCain, and vote against them.

you're a defeatist, it's that kinda attitude that keeps us 
in a 2 party system, the lesser of evils is still an evil

Exactly, its not who wins the election its about the ideas being presented. If there was more support for 3rd parties they might have made it to the debate which would push some of their very important ideas such as ending the federal reserve and reducing size of govt drastically. Ideas that have been pushed aside by this two party system.

There will be a third party presidential debate on Thursday (was supposed to be on Sunday) of the six major third party candidates.  I think it was delayed because Barr couldn't go.

What was his scheduling conflict, hope it was damn important. I wish this was on every news channel like the other debates.

Don't let the naysayers get ya down.  Voting based on idealistic principles died a long time ago.

I generally turn a deaf ear to the naysayers.
Voting for "3rd party/independent party" in a 2 party system, is allowing the other guy to win.

If you don't agree with either Obama or McCain then you have to decide who you dislike the most.

Voting for a 3rd party is just giving in to the 2 party system.
Because one of the 2, in the 2 party system, will win.
No doubt about that.

Voting for who I think will be the best president is a moot point.
I may believe that Marilyn Manson would be better than Obama or McCain.
But voting for Marilyn Manson will not get him elected.
Either, Obama or McCain will win, so I have to decide who I dislike the most and vote against him.

If your gonna vote for a 3rd party, you may as well vote for yourself.

Pick the candidate that you really don't want to see in office, and vote for the other guy.

There are better ways to get the 2 party system changed.
Voting for a 3rd party in this election is akin to voting for yourself....or not voting.
