None of you can blame me for what happens for the next four years because I'm voting for Gary Johnson!
Honestly, this is as bad as the "lesser of two evils" BS has ever gotten us. Two unacceptable choices should guarantee victory for a third party candidate.
Yes, given the high negativity ratings of both major party candidates if third parties cannot make headway this year it is looking pretty hopeless.
I will be voting for Ms. Hillary because she is both a conniving manipulator, very knowledgeable and coldly sane. The Donald is a simple salesman that can sell the illusion of his competence to thoughtless idiots. I prefer competent to a continuously bankrupt deceiver.

ROFLMAO!! That's the best one I have read on here yet about this election. Dead on. Sad state of affairs isn't it?

except none of the Trump "facts" are true. Hillary is certainly a "conniving manipulator".
Sounds like you will have an easy decision then. Lots of people believe that so there is a good chance Trump could win it. Either way, after 4 years we are going to find out if voters made the right decision. What could possibly go wrong?
He loves his country to the extent of a penthouse apartment and compound in Florida. You surely don't actually believe Trump gives a chit for a rural Kentuckian eking out a living while Trump gets his stuff manufactured in China?
I'll take my chances with Trump in this regard. At least he isn't walking around talking about how great a day it will be when he puts that rural Kentuckian out of a job.

And one of the others is or has? Trump doesn't have to crow, he's already reaped the benefits.
As a conservative, I can respect many clear thinking Democrats / liberals.
However, The Clintons specialise in double-talk and hypocrisy. Promoting the virtues and ‘inevitability’ of globalisation is deeply cynical when incomes are stagnant or falling — when blue-collar workers see their jobs and the futures of their children evaporating into smoke clouds over Juárez or Shanghai. But it’s worse when you masquerade as a friend of the working class, all the while taking huge campaign donations from financial firms and $225,000 a speech from Goldman Sachs.
I can understand why people like Bernie Sanders, but it looks like overwhelming majority will vote for Hillary Clinton SIMPLY because they hate Trump even more. Well, bull Sh*t, because they can always vote for third party. So don't tell me they vote for Hillary Clinton because they hate Trump. They vote for her because they are in love.
Actually, I think that some people would rather vote for someone who has a chance to win the election than vote third party. With third party, at least in this cycle, they are pretty much guaranteed to lose. They either have to decide that they are willing to lose in order to , what? not be a sell-out? or, vote for the major party candidate that they think won't be as bad as the other major party candidate.
Now, if they were thinking/planning ahead, they might possibly go third party in order to make the third party more substantial for future election cycles. There has been a lot of talk about the possibility of people from both parties deciding to try third party this time, because the major party choices are unpalatable to them.
But, again, many people want to vote for someone who has a chance of winning. They don't have to be "in love" with the candidate, they just have to want a chance to win the election. Or, they have to hate the other candidate sufficiently to vote for the major party opposition, because they know going third party won't get a win.
So, yeah, a lot of people will end up voting for clinton because they hate trump, and, vice versa.
Finally, a thread with rational discussion! Thanks.
I am personally voting for gridlock. Don't want the Far Left or the Far Right taking over, and there are no longer MOR candidates.
