^because, Like most of the minority of americans that voted, I voted for a candidate that was ON the ballot. I usually vote strategically and did so in 2008. had i entered a protest vote (which I have done from time to time) for someone who wasn’t on the ballot (aka a ‘writein vote’), which would have been a vote for romney in an extremely important election, I voted for the candidate that was NOT Romney who was most likely to win.I’m quite pleased with the outcome of my ‘strategic’ votes, both in 2008 and 2012.Obama is a far better president than the republican alternative(s).geez, if we had mccaine we’d be growing the deficit and involved in at least two more wars, while crying our military needs to be doubled in size in order to handle a 6 front war.of course that would have been an economic boom for the military industrial component part of our economy.
