What do you think of this?

My wife and I have been struggling with this whole election thing even before Palin was announced as McCain's VP nominee. When the announcement (Palin for VP) was first made, my immediate response was anger but it was not for Biblical reasons. I told my wife, "Oh great, he just gave the election to Obama because he chose an unknown woman to be his VP". Later that same day after thinking about it all day long, I came to the conclusion that he chose her to try and get female votes that otherwise would've gone to Hillary.
While there is no way I can vote for Obama and live with myself, I pretty much feel the same way about McCain. I was prepared to vote for McCain purely because I viewed him as the lesser of the two evils (although not by much) and I was worried about throwing my vote away if I voted for a third party candidate. After reading the page linked above, I believe that the struggle that my wife and I were having was based on our consideration of voting "for the lesser of two evils" purely out of the fear of what would happen to our country if Obama is elected rather than seeking what God would have us do. I think that our struggle was really that we have been fighting against the Holy Spirit that is telling us not to vote for either of these candidates.
I will be going to a campaign meeting tonight for the Constitution Party to learn more about them and the candidate that I believe I'm being led to vote for. I think this man is a true conservative. His views on all of the major issues are pretty much exactly the way that I think God would want them as well as the way I think they should be. http://baldwin08.com/
