They may not deserve to represent me, but I don't deserve to be represented by lunatics.
I really DO NOT care to be in this same situation again two years from now...
UPDATE: Just got back from voting. Pleasantly surprised to see how many Libertarian Party candidates were on the ballot. Where it counted, I stuck with the GOP, but I voted LP in a number of races, just to send a message.

It is comparable to burning yourself on the stove again and again. Why do you do it?

The reason he's voting for the GOP, is because even though they are less than what we want, the other choice is a thousand times worse! At least we have a CHANCE to get things done right with the GOP.
Fortunately I can vote a bit more with my concience in NY state, as I am a registered Conservative party member. I still vote for the GOP candidates, but on the Conservative line.

Most of the Democratic candidates are taking moderate approaches toward
domestic and foreign issues. They are stressing more
accountability on the war profiteering in Iraq and taking a harder
stance against illegal immigration than any republican would.
The republican policy has failed. Miserably. Do you always
have to vote Republican even when it will sink this country further in
the toilet?

LOL. uh huh.
Democrats always campaign towards the right (it's the only way they can win). Then they govern fromt the left. Liberalism requires stealth to survive in America. Hold your nose and vote GOP. Oh, and "war profiteering" is as relevant an issue this election season as my left nut.

Yeah..they are running moderates but it is the most far left liberals
who will get the committeships and thus the real power. I consider
being pissed and smiting myself just to teach those repubs a lesson is
a childish act. I just held my nose when I voted.

What planet are you living on? Have you not seen the Dem ads demanding that we "pull out of Iraq now?" Is that what you consider a "moderate approach?"
...taking a harder stance against illegal immigration than any republican would.
Name me the Democrat candidates who are advocating "enforcement first." Name me the Dems who are advocating expanded immigration raids and enhanced penalties against employers. Just for reference, here's what the Democrat Party website had to say about immigration policy:
"Bush Fences In Comprehensive Immigration Reform
President Bush this morning will complete his definitive abandonment of comprehensive immigration reform by signing a flawed and politically-driven enforcement only Republican bill that mandates a fence on our southern border, but fails to fund its construction. The Republican Congress, in a political stunt designed to cater to the far right wing base of their party, authorized a border fence 700 miles long along a border that spans more than 2,000 miles, and even then appropriated only a small portion of the billions needed to build that fence."
As expected, the Dems are long on criticism and short on solutions.
