They were votes against the cartoon villains the major parties decided to nominate.

Dear major parties, next time give us more sophisticated villains like Obama and Romney.

I'm not convinced anyone or anything ever meets your standards. At the end of a Sanders presidency, you'd be calling him a villain too.

Whatever it is you think of him and his standards, I completely agree with what he said.
Signed, a McMullin voter ... with extremely high and very specific expectations.

Mine was very much a jfern-specific post.

As for what he said - I only disagree with the Obama/Romney part. I'm not sure I'd call Obama a villain. What exactly are we talking about? Something like the whistleblower prosecutions and expanded surveillance state? If so, I vehemently disagree with those actions but at the same time it seems more like he is trying to accomplish something relatively non-evil and has a much different idea of what is appropriate in regards to the NSA/etc. He just doesn't strike me as the villain type, and no, I don't mean in that in the sense that I just like his personality/etc and has blinded me or whatever.

At any rate, I didn't intend to discuss this with jfern. He's nothing but a black hole.
