    Who would you vote for, knowing that your choice would make the final decision?

    I'm interested to see how many people would continue to vote for Obama/Romney if they were in a situation where the third party candidate wasn't believed to be "unelectable"

    Sorry, CS... there's too much fantasyland thinking in DC as it is... doubt if anybody's in the mood to play 'what if' with you. :(

    P.S. I would never push a button that incl a vote for Barack Obama. Sorry.

    I thought as much, but I figured I could give it a try anyway haha. Thanks for at least pointing out that you would vote for Romney.

    Governing is a team game.

    No I wouldn't (and didn't) vote for Ross Perot (even though I liked a lot of what he said) because he failed to gin up a real party. No downticket support. No Senators, No Representatives. No Governors. No state legislators. No. Not one.

    What good is a President when everybody in Congress hates his guts?

    The ultimate solution is a new Congress. None of them have permanent jobs, ya know? And they work for us.

    Term limits would be a good start. Hopefully that's on the Tea Party's agenda, too. ;)
