"If you want a "feel good" vote," Nope, I want to vote for the candidate that best expresses my views on how the gov't should be run. Voting my principles is what causes the good feeling. "The math of a vote for a third party is simple -- it takes away a vote for either of the two people with a chance to win" And the bad news is that one of them will be elected in November. If I wanted to vote for a pandering big gov't demagogue I would most certainly vote for Gore. He definitely panders to the handouts I want, and the gov't granted 'rights' I prefer. There will never be a reason to vote Libertarian based on your arguments, because every election is 'critical' and there will always be one or the other of the big two that will eff it up. But the fact is that the current Libertarian base can't possibly do enough to change the results one way or the other. You are worried that Libertarian votes will detract from Bush, I submit that isn't true. Even if it were, it will be likely that Nader will take as many if not more votes away from Gore. I will vote for instead of against. Waste your vote if you will. Regards, Barb
