So...follow politics? Think you have a good grasp on the issues at hand? You know not to vote for who you REALLY want because they'll never win. It's just throwing your vote away, right? How do you know? The polls say so. Or do they?

You know, it's hard to do well in the polls when you're not one of the choices. And look, it's only the people who are calling for us to completely get out of Iraq. I don't know how true the one commenter is, but one of them said that Ron Paul is being left out of the Republican polls as well.

I'm not a conspiracy guy, but....

OK, let me turn this logic around. Let's say you're right. You're vote doesn't matter - it won't change anything. Then why would you vote for who you really don't want? If you voted for a scumbag and the scumbag won, you'd feel better? Damn, I hope not.
