Anybody But Obama....

I'm back!!!

Driving home the other night from work, I was listening to the Mark Levin radio show and I found one of his callers' thoughts very interesting and right on the mark. The caller stated that he was a Libertarian, and as thus, normally voted for third party candidates. He attempted to explain that we are not a two party system and it is only because of people's lack of faith in a non-Democrat, non-Republican getting elected that has caused them not to voted third-party. However, in this election, he felt it was so important to defeat President Obama, that he stated he will be voting for Governor Romney and urged all other Libertarians to do so.

The fact of the matter, is that we are basically a two party system by default whether individuals want to admit it or not. Third-party candidates don't have a chance, and this is the most important election to realize that. Voting for anyone other than the Republican candidate is a de facto vote for President Obama. Differences must be put aside, and President Obama MUST be defeated.

Changes need to come from within a party, not without by creating a new political group. The "Tea-Party" is an excellent example of this. As they gained strength for their conservative, Constitutional beliefs and ideas, many people suggested that they form a new, third party to replace or compete with the GOP. However, the individuals who are part of this grass-roots movement, recognized that forming a new party would be worse then leaving the current political system the way it is. Thus, slowing, and successfully, the Tea Party has infiltrated and is changing the GOP. This is the best way to change the direction of a political party.

So this November, going to the polls and voting for a third-party candidate is a dumb idea. Vote for Governor Romney, vote for Congressman Ryan, vote for the GOP/Tea Party candidate and let's take back the White House and Senate...
