I don't get it: if you don't live in a swing state, why the hell would you legitimize a shitty-ass Democrat by giving him/her your vote? Why give up the chance to make some sort of statement by voting SWP or spoiling your ballot or something? Not having to vote for Dems is one of the pleasures of living in a solidly Rep. or Dem. state.
