I know Vermin is funny, but if people actually start voting for him to "send a message," the trendy uneducated voters will learn nothing through the message. Maybe the trendy voters are always a lost cause, but I hold out the hope that if someone like Ron Paul makes a large enough wave, a portion of them will wake up. I doubt Vermin will make a serious wave, though, so maybe I'm worrying about nothing.
I vote for Paul or write in Paul. Although I hear Tennessee doesn't even tally up write-ins. They apparently just stack them up and if the race is close (which it never is in TN), then MAYBE they'll count them. Basically, a write-in vote in TN sounds like a lost vote. Doesn't mean I still won't write-in Paul. My conscience would be clear even if they ignore my vote.
