"I rank it right up there with the chance that I'll die on a coast to coast airplane trip - it is not a concern" Never before has a possibility been of less concern to me.
"You have absolutely no reason not to vote for whatever candidate is your absolute favorite, without exception." One reason - the possibility of a christianist in the white house.
"In my state (michigan), our last senate democrat beat the republican by something close to a million fucking votes. The win margins of candidates in elections are so fucking wide, if you vote for a dem/repub because of some lesser of two evils bullshit, you really are an asshat." That situation is not analoguous to the condition I posited. *TU* est un... Ânechapeau? You are not making this easy for me...

"When people dismiss Rand they also dismiss libertarianism, and may never again give it credence." Most objectivists won't deal with libertarians anyway. But their acidic klaxoning and mighty rethoric deals blows to the virtue of minarchism and freedom.
