I whole-heartedly agree. For me, it's not about voting for the candidate I think will win - it's about voting my conscience. I just can't bring myself to vote for someone I think is truly bad for the country, and I think the mainstream options (McCain, Obama, OR Hillary) are all bad.
Hence, I'm either voting Libertarian, or writing-in Ron Paul. They won't win, but if enough people voice our true opinion (instead of voting for/against someone strictly because of their party affiliation, or voting for the candidate because we think they can win), maybe we will be heard.
