What was your worst presidential vote?

John Anderson for me too, complete waste, never voted third party again. Scratch that, I may have voted for Nader, I don't really remember, but don't get on my case, I didn't live in Florida!!

Obama. It was my first and only presidential election so far to vote in though, and I still would choose him over McCain.

I too voted for Anderson and I wont apologize I still believe it was the right choice at the time.

None, so far. I haven't given any of these goofs the sanction of the victim.

I don't vote for candidates, because it only seems to encourage them.

I voted for bush over gore..... horrible f***ing mistake

I bought into the hope and change stuff in 2008 and voted for Obama. That wont happen again I guarantee you.

I think Obama was my worst vote. It was only my 3rd election. In the others I voted for 3rd party candidates because I strongly oppose the 2 party system we've got going on. But in 2008 there just wasn't a 3rd party candidate that I was excited about, so I went for the big O. He seems fine, other than the fact that he is unbelievably partyline.

For 2012 I'll be back to pushing 3rd parties. Unless of course it looks like someone like Palin could win. Well, maybe then I'd move to Canada. If there is one thing I like more than running it is xc skiing.

Do people who say Obama was their worst vote remember who he was running against?

I'm definitely not saying I'd rather have McCain/Palin in the house. But since no one's vote actually matters (unless it comes down to a single vote, in which case everyone will argue their's was the vote that did it), I wish I voted for another in '08.

Ronald Reagan

Bill Clinton in 1996. I have voted for Nader ever since.

Yes, it seems obvious that Obama was running against a very similarly liberal candidate. Except McCain would have been a better president. McCain was a very anti-Republican Republican. Also, he did more service for the country than many Presidents and public officials and myself. So Mr. McCain is better, meaning closer to his electoral promises. Obama is exactly what everyone who didn't vote for him expected. His big problem is his former voting base. They wanted unrealistic hope and incredibly diverse change. It was not expressed well. It was not voted well, and not it is not governed well. However, President Obama made a very supportive and great speech today. He did what His country needs and that is to support its citizens.

Well I've only voted for president once, and I'll be voting for the same person again next year. So nothing to regret. I'd love to be able to vote Republican, but there just aren't any good (ie moderate or liberal) candidates on that side. Not that there are many liberals in the Obama administration now, but you know, it's better than nothing.

Warren Harding.

Why oh why? I really have second guessed myself on that one.

Worst non-vote? I live in Florida and didn't vote in the 2000 election even though I was very supportive of Gore (took a nap and slept past polls closing). Damn, I f***ed up.

You think your vote would have actually counted?? haha

This idea some of you have that no one should vote because no one's vote counts is jejune and if taken to its logical extreme, it would make government even less responsive than it is.

George McGovern in 1972. I knew he was too far left for me; but just couldn't bring myself to vote for Nixon...something seemed 'not right' with him. So my vote was a protest, throwaway vote.

Herbert Hoover

Ross Perot--the second time.
