14:08 <~      doc> I like Ron Paul because he's one of the few people in congress willing to flesh out his ideas with actual steps
14:08 <~      doc> Some of his ideas are not what I want to see acted upon, but there are a lot of politicians that are just sidestepping and avoiding hard answers
14:09 <~      doc> At least you know if you like or dislike Ron Paul
14:09 <     Erich> republicans make bad choices, democrats make none.
14:09 <~      doc> It's harder to say that about Romney, there might be reasons to dislike him but it's hard to pin down a real policy issue to dislike the guy on
14:09 <   Penguin> I agree with you doc
14:09 <~      doc> Because a lot of these people don't HAVE a strong policy stance
14:10 <   Penguin> Ron Paul is at the very least a real person
14:10 <   Penguin> with real opinions
14:10 <~      doc> Yes
14:10 <~      doc> Ron Paul is a model politician only because he has ideas he's willing to back up
14:10 <~      doc> (even if you think the ideas are crazy!)
14:10 <~      doc> that being said ron paul is crazy
14:10 <~      doc> and comedy third option
14:10 <   JoshuaC> Yeah
14:10 <   JoshuaC> But I'd vote for him
14:11 <   JoshuaC> He gets the adorable vote
14:11 <~      doc> I don't know who I'm voting for, but it isn't going to matter
14:11 <~      doc> I'm not voting for Obama
14:11 <   JoshuaC> Why
14:11 <~      doc> which means it's a defacto Republican vote
14:11 <~      doc> I don't like how he brought in Wall Street to run his fiscial policies
14:11 <   JoshuaC> I'd feel all dirty if I voted republican
14:11 <~      doc> I'm not voting republican
14:11 <   JoshuaC> But I'd probably feel the same for voting democrat
14:12 <~      doc> But not voting incumbent is a defacto vote for the opposition
14:12 <    Kaitty> voting is too mainstream
14:12 <~      doc> in a 2 party system
