to vote AGAINST somebody instead of FOR somebody
my brother doesnt vote but says this year he will. In the past, there was'nt any candidate he wanted to vote FOR. this year, there is a candidate he wants to vote AGAINST. same difference, one might ask. its in the semantics, and makes sense to me...

2. This is just so sick.
This government needs a major overhaul because our choices suck!

Frankly, I took a look at the Labor Party (American, not UK) and found I agreed with every one of their positions. However, will they ever be 'viable' w/o a revolution?

4. Right on!
Another way to look at it, if you live in a heavily Republican area, is that you are "cancelling" a pug's vote.

5. I'm all about voting against people now
I'm voting against Kerry on March 16th and then I'll be voting against Bush on November 2nd.

Come March 17th, I'll be registering as an independent. I've been a Democrat nearly a quarter century, but screw that shit now.

6. Voting against people response
If you vote against somebody then who do you vote for, somebody else or somebody you don't care about?

8. Right On!!
I'm all for voting against people now. That's all I have left now that Dean dropped.

I'm hoping Edwards can give me something to vote FOR once again. Kerry sure can't!
