My vote is my vote. I don't dare mock your choice, and I'd expect the same courtesy.

You choose Obama for Reason A-B-C...I choose no one for Reasons D-E-F becuase I don't feel anyone gave me reason to choose them based on my preference.

If you feel justified for standing in line for whatever time you did so, good for you. I feel justified for not choosing to endorse anyone with my personal choice.

If you feel belittled, that's your choice.

You didn't make a choice. There's nothing to mock. - Candidate Vermin Nov 4, 13:47 4

I'm not mocking your vote, I'm mocking your reasoning. - musubi Voted For Change 2 weeks ago Nov 4, 13:46 1
- Err, you reasoning for not voting, that is. (nm) - musubi Voted For Change 2 weeks ago Nov 4, 13:47
Vote or don't vote (I happen to disagree with your choice but so be it). Just don't claim it's because you value your vote more than those who do - pmb Nov 4, 13:46 2
- Read closer. I said I value my vote differently than most here. Not more. - Will Hunting Nov 4, 13:48 1
  - More is implied (i.e. you have a higher standard for a candidate to meet therefore you value your vote more). But fine. I'll take you at your word - pmb Nov 4, 13:52
