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.

agree, but at the same time there is practicality.
I don't agree with there decision making 100% of the time, but I do agree with it more than 50% of the time. While the Libertarian party does look attractive, the reality of it is that there is currently a contest where they are not major policy makers nor do they have any track record to follow. I understand that it's a catch 22 but it's also a 1 life time shot meaning that I don't get any takebacks, repeats, or redos. I have to make the most of the opportunities in front of me at the moment.
