An admirable notion, but I fear that any message to politicians that don't go through the main media or show up on their desk will fall upon deaf ears. I don't really call it the "lesser of two evils" approach. I just vote for the one that will mess up in the places that I care about least. Honestly, they are all going to mess something up. I know I'd mess something up if I ran a political office(though I hope it'd be less then the standard rate).
