As to whining, look inward padiwan, as you may find the cries about that mean ol "two party system" that will never fix anything is much louder.

But even the politically mute know better than to throw away their vote on a won't win anything except second place loss. (coming in third)  The politically naive may believe they are getting a voice by giving Wilson the 8 points he may receive, but even the politically Desperate Democrats (according to people in your own team) are running google adwords to make sure THAT number doesn't go down.

If you think Wilson will take 15% you are dreaming.  If he does, I would obviously admit I was wrong, while at the same time admonishing your groups support by default for McDowell.
