| i'm voting for romney because he's not obama but i can't believe we can't do better. usually after an election third parties disappear but what if that didn't happen this time? why can't they start working towards 2016? why don't WE start proselytizing or stumping? |

They need to start working towards 2013 and 2014, not 2016. That is what 3rd party types do not understand, you can not go from nobody in elected office to the President. If a third party wants to be taken serious in the presidential election they need to get people elected in local elections next year, congressional elections in 2014, etc etc. |

I agree. I hope Romney will be a great POTUS but every speech he has given he talks about working with the Democrats. GW tried this and it destroyed his legacy.
I believe it is time for a 3 party, a conservative Party! I am sick of voting the lesser of 2 evils. |

After the election I have no problem with this.
Although I think Romney will be much more conservative as POTUS than Gov of one of the most commie infected states in the union. Also, unless we take the Senate, he will have no choice but to at least try to get both sides to work together. That is called leadership when done properly. |

Yep, the problem with electing a Ron Paul, Gary Johnson, whoever, as POTUS is they can't count on support from anyone in congress. They'll just ignore the prez and fight amongst themselves.
Breaking this two-party system has to start at the local level and migrate upwards. |

Hillary Clinton and Julian Castro will be the ticket for the dems in 2016. Will be another historic election and Romney will lose. BS. Hillary may be in fucking jail. But she will certainly be damaged goods. ETA- And, if we take the Senate, I believe there is a damn good chance Romney and some conservatives may well fix this bullshit economy (they inherited  ).
