"The most telling reason for not wanting to do it is that it would give the Repubs some serious, not-kidding-around, red-meat evidence for their hitherto spurious bullshit about 'voter fraud'. Never mind that they do that sort of thing, and much worse, themselves."
I already love you like my favorite brother, Tom, and this confirms it. It's exactly what I've been thinking.
There was one time, years ago, when I briefly considered voting for The Less Electable Candidate in a Republican primary. But only briefly. It wasn't just that it's unethical, and we are not the party of ratf*cking. I realized that I just could not say "I'm a Republican" without throwing up.
Actually I routinely vote in the Republican primaries. Usually there isn't a Democratic primary in my area, so if I want any voice, I have no other choice.
That said, I vote for the sanest Republican I can find (not that there's a lot to choose from there, but you do what you can.)
I have considered voting for the craziest one at least in elections that are going to be contested nationally, but what if he actually got into power? I would feel terrible.

An AWESOME quote about the entire debate of the GOP's battle against women by a man IN POWER who stands between women and these idiots.

Or do you mean you thought Bush was the craziest of the Republican field?
