Not voting is a resounding "vote" which I have done is the past to voice disgust with both candidates....Actually there is absolutely no need for a republican to vote for President if Trump goes third party....Such an election will be a coronation for Hillary............ :banghead:

I'd like to know how Philly knows what someone is going to do, "I know 3 Republicans"
the voices in his head perhaps?

The Not Voting deal is very difficult for Aussies to reconcile.
The vote is freedom's triumph. It's a franchise and a privilege granted to us all in the free, democratic world.
If you do not vote you are denying the future.
You cannot say I voted for the other guy when IT hits the fan.
You cannot claim the high ground when your choice gets in.

You are nothing.
You have a parliamentry system, where there are multiple parties that represent a variety of beliefs and positions. In the US we're forced to choose one from culumn A or one from column B. It leaves people with such a limited choice that the majority no longer feel represented by such narrow ideologies.

I'm not going to vote for Hillary or Trump.
Should I run for president?
Aren't you in enough pain already?

I will vote against Hillary. If the person with the best chance to keep her out of office is Trump then he will be the guy I vote for.
Which is kind of a vote against the entire nation.

Party leaders have two choices.

1. Give Trump the nod.

if not

2. Guarantee Clinton victory.

Las Vegas won't even bother with the betting line if Trump does not receive the nomination.
A trump nomination guarantees a Clinton victory anyway.
Bingo!

I don't remember saying that although I always believed that Ms. Clinton would prevail for the nomination.

Don't know about "you guys".

Well, the Democrats should not have gone with her as their candidate.

I don't like Trump but I will vote for him over Ms. Clinton and trust that the system will contain his exuberance in the same manner that it has contained Obama's.

What was done to President Obama was and remains a disgrace and an absolute perversion of the offices that purely obstructionist conservatives have abused.

And the damage that a man in the Oval Office can do is enormous and instant. There is no responsible way that Mr. Trump can be voted into the office of President of the United States. None!

Republicans cannot offer a positive, constructive program so they have conditioned their constituents to vote against democrats rather than for republicans. And as we've seen, they will do so under the most ridiculous of circumstance.

I know a number of republicans who won't vote for either Trump or Eduardo Rafael Cruz Jr. They also won't be voting for Hillary so that works for me...

Philly now that Trump has admitted all of his bluster was all a show and he will now buckle down and become "Presidential" moving forward...
Do you feel like you want a refund on your emotional investment?

No, you have a disagreement with her philosophy of government, just as I do with Mr. Cruz or Mr. Kasich. I believe that either of those two (one more than the other) would be a problem for a lot of elements of our nation but Mr. Trump is in another league. He is completely unqualified and he is dangerous to have in that office.

No, it's not a matter of agree to disagree.

Yes attaburnsinhell that is what we have. There are many parties but two dominant ones (Liberal & Labor).

It still means that if we don't vote we have no cause to complain if the person we didn't vote for gets in.
If we didn't have a say one way or another at the election then why should we have any afterwards?
