Is voting third party a wasted vote?

Not wasted, but misguided sometimes.

In 2000, Gore would have decisively won and not had the election stolen from him if the Green Party hadn't bled votes away. The world would be a different place today if Bush had not been placed in office.

So...not a big fan of the third party vote, but it is your right. IF you live in a swing state, however, be careful about your choice.

Don't agree that Obama's landslide is a given, you cannot count out racism and a Bubba uprising at this point.
