embracing the logic head on but koan, what do we do? not vote vote for obama vote for a republican i've never not voted, but for the first time, it has crossed my mind. democrats look aghast when i mention this option but i respond in my mental conversation with myself by facing the fact that obama does not deserve my vote, he is an empty suit. then i argue to myself that if i don't participate, i am de facto supporting mitt or perry or, godforbid, cain. i could not consciously support any republican, because they are all also bought, but so is obama. i don't think it matters who is elected, because they all work for someone besides us. so what to do this next election? and does it even matter?
