Vote! It is extremely unlikely that I will ever get to vote in my adult life if I remain in Singapore. Jim, as a citizen has never voted in an election because our opposition is so tightly controlled and blocked, we're essentially a one-party country. Voting is an extraordinary right.
If you're in a swing state, vote for the party that you think will create a better world for your children. That's what it should come down to, not taxes.
But if you're not in a tight race, then a third party vote means that you help make a third party candidate *more* viable in four years' time. It's a lot harder to dismiss Ron Paul these days, after all.
