I shudder at either prospect. Coutler is right getting Clinton instead of McCain is like getting six instead of a half-dozen. The kiss of death? I hope so.
If Clinton and McCain are my choices there’ll be no reason not to go for the Libertarian Candidate. It won’t be like a vote for a third party candidate will harm anything by splitting the vote. In fact if every real conservative took that stance a third party candidate might actually have a chance.
