Simple question: Which is more important,
voting for the person who you would rather win of those who have a chance at winning,
or voting for someone who most closely embodies your personal beliefs, whether they have a chance of winning or not?
In your country from an ethical stance yes, from a political stance noAnyone who shares your beliefs is worth your vote.
I try and be practical. A republican or democrat is almost certainly going to win, so might as well vote for the one who will do what I think will be the best job. Besides, none of the third parties reflect my beliefs any better than my chosen democratic party, and almost all worse.

In my country the Liberal Democrats, the third party for many elections were very useful for tactical voting.
The return of candidates like Ms Cicciolina would make more than my soul feel good,Porn to be WildI think I read Jenna J has found Jesus, any chance she will find politics?The wasted vote thing is a myth. Your vote means the same regardless of how it is cast. You need to vote to make your soul feel good.
Your vote is just as statistically insignifigant as a third party vote.
Well you don't specify the US so I voted. I generally vote forthird party candidates, in England I'd specifically vote for the Wessex regionalists or the Greens and perhaps UKIP. But I wouldn't completely rule out the Tories.
Here election laws and the presidential debates are tailored to keep everyone else out.
America does not have open and honest elections.

Be realistic about your vote. If your vote for third party candidate means the Democrat gets into office, when you could have voted for the Republican and stopped that horrendous occurence, you've wasted your vote.
Your not stopping any horrendous thing from happening by throwing your vote away on a sell out liberal republican.
Ooh he is 2-5% better than Obama big deal. By voting for sell outs like McCain, Gulliani, Romney and other sellouts pretending to be patriotic conservatives you are encouraging the republican party to further degenerate.
Why would the republicans ever prop up another viable conservative if you keep voting for liberals,you'll bash libs all day and then turn around and vote for one just because he has a "R" next to his name.
A republican liberal rat is still just as much of a liberal rat as a democrat liberal. Both parties are taking us to hell in hand basket, one is just taking us there a little bit slower.
