Hahahaha idealistic.. I wish :-(

I just have no ties to either party. I've always voted third party and will do the same this year.

If enough people are tired of the same 1-party bs they should vote on another party. There are plenty to go around.

Mitt can quickly reduce the deficit spending by getting rid of these feel-good nonsense programs that have utterly failed (hello green energy!), that alone puts us in better fiscal shape.

However, not being dumb, I realize there are going to be SEVERE cuts in federal programs including the military, changes to medicare/medicaid, and social security.

Voting 3rd party is a wasted vote.

Not voting is a wasted vote. Voting for another party other than the two big ones is not.

I'll agree with this one.

But yeah, this is NY. The sheeple vote the same way every time and wonder why things never change.

Personally, I say to split the electoral votes for all states, majority candidate getting any tie breakers.
