Clarification needed: I vote for Libertarian candidates when they are on
the ballet and the candidate is also not a goof (no party appears immune
to
these sorts). Otherwise I elect not to vote on anyone for a given office
if
I don't like any of the candidates.

So the "powerless" party I meant is the Libertarian party, not Republican.

So in other words, by voting for a candidate that has no choice of winning
office, you threw away your vote.

Sad, but that is the reality of it.


The Progressives never won an election in the first part of the last century,
but by 1940 most of their platform had beenenacted.

Small parties can drive the big parties by "stealing" votes, so voting for
Nader, a Libertarian or a green is not wasted vote. Not in the long run.
