Maybe this thing can be resolved down lines of party-ideology.
I like Obama, so this is obviously not my personal thought-process. But if both presidential candidates are equally lame to you, and neither VP candidate is a tie-breaker (or deal-breaker), you could vote the candidate you think will better enable those in congress who you generally agree with to move the country the direction you prefer? It looks like congress will be even more strongly Democratic next session. So the question might be: do you want generally-Democratic principles supported or thwarted?
