The Case for a Third-Party Vote

Here's an interesting article titled "The Progressive Case Against Obama" that I think a lot of people should read. It doesn't figure anything out or tell you what to do, but it DOES give good reason to not vote from the standpoint of "Well, I just don't like the other guy" which I am beginning to feel is the main reason Obama will win, if he does manage a victory.

The title may scare some people away, but the writer is actually a democrat with a long history in liberal politics. THIS IS NOT A "VOTE FOR ROMNEY" CALL TO ACTION. The article is not a feel-good story and doesn't give you a pretty picture of the upcoming election...but that's the reality we face.

Anyways...I know many will close this post and ignore the article, but I think it's a valuable read for anyone planning on making the tough voting decision next tuesday. I wouldn't be surprised to learn many closed the post once they saw the title of the story...the sad thing is that those are the very people this article is meant for...and it isn't pushing either candidate as the man for the job.
