I ask then... If I can't vote for either candidate that 'can win', what am I 
supposed to
do? And don't say that I should vote for one of them anyway. There is no lesser 
of two
evils here. They are both absolutely abysmal choices, and I will /NOT/ vote for 
either
one of them.

Should I not vote at all? I don't think so. So what do I do? Complain loudly? 
Grab a
torch and pitchfork?

No, I think I should do my patriotic duty, and vote for who I believe will do 
the best
thing for this country.
