58. Nothing you do for the party will be effective if Obama doesn't win. We can elect veto proof

majorities in Congress, and it STILL won't matter if the Supreme Court justices appointed in 2013 rule much of progressive policy unconstitutional (as they did for 30 years in the early 20th century).

For your sake, I hope voting your conscience is worth it. Because when the above outcome comes to pass, I know many people who would not easily be able to live with themselves if they knew they did something to cause it. At least speaking for myself, if I knew that I was partly responsible for the deciding vote that sets the available options for policy back to the early 1900s (for potentially a generation), it would be difficult to look at myself in the mirror in the morning.
