Just here on GC - look how many intelligent, politically concerned GCers have stated they are voting for a candidate they do not feel would be the best president/senator/whatever.

I did feel frustrated by the number of people who were theoretically Fred fans who wouldn't vote for him in even the primary. The funniest part is that most of them voted for Romney instead.
