2008 Presidential elections

[GuidoHunter]

I see no problem voting party line. Well, when I don't know everything I can about the candidate, of course. Were there a democrat who agreed with me on every major issue, sure, I'd vote for him over a republican with whom I disagreed on a couple of issues.

But let's be real; that's not going to happen without a total paradigm shift in politics.

I pay enough attention to Presidential, Gubernatorial, and sometimes state elections, but who really knows all that they can about every candidate on that ballot? I don't, but I'm going to vote, anyway, and solely on party lines in those cases. Why? Because people who call themselves republicans or democrats or libertarians or what have you clearly think that they associate with that group. Those who associate with, say, republicans, are more likely to agree with me on issues.

It's either only vote for three people during election years (thus defeating the purpose of our election system), or vote along party lines. I choose the latter.
