Morality of Political Compromise

[pnewton]

In this election year, once again we will deal with the problem of third party voters, electability and compromise. I came across this quiz from a Catholic professor and thought I would post a poll here. Without getting too much into the names of those running (maybe ), do you prefer to do the best you can with your vote, or are you one that have some lines (maybe many) that you will not cross?

I will never support (until I have no other option and all candidates are) a candidate that is pro-choice. I will hold out on same-sex marriage until I have no other choice as well.

I will not vote against my moral conscience. Regarding economics, there is room for compromise there.

There is a moral imperative for Catholics:
To not support, and further, to work against both Pro-choice and gay marriage movements. Mist everything else falls within so-called social justice, but in many if those cases, what is just for one group is legitimately unjust for another group.

If there is no virtue, there is nothing left worth fighting for.
