There's no way in hell I'm going to offer support to a party that I disagree with, even if I disagree with it 'less' than other's running. What the hell kind of qualification is that for leading the country?
So you only vote for a person or party that you agree with on ALL the issues.? Thats a tough one-- I have views on dozens of issues and some matter to me more than others. So yes, I will often vote for the party I disagree with the least.
I think that any informed choice is better than making no choice at all.
Personally I have voted completely contrary to my personal fiscal views to support a strong candidate. I may have disagreed with his views but felt that the nation is all the better for having people with different views espousing them. Sometimes, regardless of party stripe, there are candidates that you know will make an impact.
I don't agree with much of NDP party policy but I would hate to see them disappear from the political spectrum. I see no harm, and much good in having the leftists railing against the centrist and centre-right policies most prevalent in our country.You don't get to 300 losses without being a pretty exceptional goaltender.-- Ben Kenobi speaking of Roberto LuongoComment

And that's my last word on this until it's all over. I'm off to a poker game. When I get back and find out the results I'll be drunk and missing 20$. If that isn't fitting I don't know what is.

or so their recent past would indicate .. . They certainly practiced enough corruption. But of course their new leader is claiming ignorance of all corruption and that his same old gang will somehow act completely differently with him at the helmYou don't get to 300 losses without being a pretty exceptional goaltender.-- Ben Kenobi speaking of Roberto LuongoComment
