Is this not the perfect election to vote for a 3rd party candidate like Badnerik (or Nader)?
I do not agree with everything the LP stands for, but they reflect my views the closest.
I voted for Harry Brown last time around and will vote for Badnerik this time.
Last time I was living in Austin, TX and now Ellijay, GA, neither swing states (not that it matters to me but might for some).
I find more fulfillment in the "fuck you" vote anyway.

I've voted for Harry Browne for the last couple of times, but this year, I feel more strongly about unseating Bush and voting for the Libertarian candidate wouldn't accomplish that.
I'll still generally vote Libertarian on a local level because that's where there can be more changes made that are actually worthwhile. I often would do the "fuck you" vote and based on the theory that a Libertarian will never take the White House, but if they show strong enough numbers, the candidates from the "big two" will use their ideas.
