November 4, 200817 yr If you thought that a protest vote was the way to go, seems to me you would have convinced everyone to "protest vote" with you. I have never heard of someone campaigning to convince people to vote for a candidate that they will not vote for. :thumb::thumb:

November 4, 200817 yr I campaigned for Lunsford a little bit, did some calling. But to be honest, I don't think I'm going to vote for him.
November 4, 200817 yr But isn't a vote for a third party like a vote for Obama?It is if you are a conservative.
November 4, 200817 yr Author Seems hypocritical to me, to convince others to vote for one person while you are voting for someone else. I really could care less what you think.

I have never heard of someone campaigning to convince people to vote for a candidate that they will not vote for. I looked at it realistically. Most people are voting for either Obama or McCain, no matter how much someone tries to convince them otherwise. If that's the case, wouldn't I want to try to sway those people to vote for the one that is most alligned with what I believe?

November 4, 200817 yr Nope, it's a vote for THAT candidate. That myth is just a cop out for whichever major party loses.No, by not voting for a candidate, you ARE robbing them of that vote. Seems pretty obvious to me.
November 4, 200817 yr No, by not voting for a candidate, you ARE robbing them of that vote. Seems pretty obvious to me. Then I robbed a vote from Obama and McCain. Seems even to me.

If McCain is most aligned with what you believe, then why are you not voting for him? Seems pointless to try and get others to vote for him, but not do it yourself. If you want McCain to win, then go out and vote for him. . . ? Or am I missing something ?

He can verify this but I believe he is saying Barr is more aligned to what he believes in but he's not going to be able to convince many to vote for a 3rd party candidate. So why not support the major candidate who is closer to his beliefs. ^I'm not even sure that makes sense.
November 4, 200817 yr I've made a lot of phone calls for the McCain/Palin campaign. :thumb: And I thank you!!! I have done the same. I hope it pays off.
