An astute move, considering the debate with Mr. Binder.
Via Greg Mitchell's blog, how progressives can vote for or against Mr. Obama without regrets, and with an article by Daniel Ellsberg recommending swing state voters take the plunge with Democrats yet again, but cast votes for 3rd party candidates if the voters live in decisively blue or red states. I wouldn't call those votes "protest" votes, however. More like an opportunity to vote for people who more fully represent your positions on issues.
I have no advice for anyone on these matters; each voter must make their own decision, but by all means, vote. Certainly stay abreast of the polling in one's own state. (The reliable polls, if you can find them.)
