But you obviously are not happy with the changes they are trying to do, so why would you want to elect people who will disappoint you with their decision making? The problem with third parties is that too many people have this ideal. "Oh, I'll be throwing away my vote, so I'm not going down that path." Vote for what you believe in, not just because you think someone else has a better chance. By not voting with what you believe in, people are just lying to themselves, and in the end they will be unhappy with the choices they have made, like in this situation.
