I'll agree with you then.  It appears it is unfixable.  I figured I'd make a stab at making it so that, if you are going to have the complex interface needed to allow giving each candidate a numerical rating, that it would be for good, rather than just to trick ignorant voters into doing something against their interest, or for disenfranchising those who choose sincerity over strategy.

So, let me ask this.  Occasionally there will be simple "yes / no" votes.  Do you think following each yes/no vote, there should be something like this?:

How much do you want your vote to count (check one):

( ) As much as possible
( ) 90% of as much as possible
( ) 80% of as much as possible
( ) 70% of as much as possible
( ) 60% of as much as possible
( ) 50% of as much as possible
( ) 40% of as much as possible
( ) 30% of as much as possible
( ) 20% of as much as possible
( ) 10% of as much as possible
