Vote Entitlement

In November of 2004 I voted for Ralph Nader, not just because of the Republicans but because of the Democrats.
I get quite frustrated by the Democrats' claims that Nader "spoiled" the 2000 election or that he "siphoned" votes from Gore.
Since when are the Democrats entitled to get my vote?
In addition to this rhetoric, the Democrats also filed one law suit after another to prevent Nader from competing in 2004.
If these really are the people that are running for office on the Democratic side, maybe we'd be better off with a Republican in 2008... then the Dem's will have another 8 years to shape up and act like the people they claim to be.

I know I'm about to become lonely, but if we (liberals) are misguided and, frankly, dumb enough to elect Hillary then I'd consider voting for a republican. Not even just an independent, a republican. Why? To punish Hillary as a candidate. She's such a bad choice that I'd go against everything I believe in politically to make a point morally; that sell-outs are not welcome here.

Conversely, I think the same of McCain. If republicans are misguided and, frankly, dumb enough to elect McCain then they deserve to get cleaned up.

Worst case scenario: Hillary and McCain. They are so bland and rigid and "moderate" that it's not even a choice. Hell, they could run together... and I'm running away.
