I'm likely voting Libertarian anyway, so it doesn't really matter for my personal vote. However, if a candidate from the 2-party system MUST be in the White House, I'd prefer it be a Republican; at least that was I have a glimmer of hope that I won't be taxed to all hell and back
I used to feel this way but I'm far less concerned about taxing than I used to be. Don't get me wrong, I loathe tax and spend liberals, but I hate the spend part more. I wouldn't mind even increasing my taxes if it was going to the things it should. I don't care about welfare programs as long as they aren't promoting a welfare state, which they are. I don't care about medicare and medicaid taxes if they aren't perpetuating a corrupt system, which they are.
I won't vote libertarian even though I wish I could. Rand Paul knows the Fed is the greatest injustice on the American people and that I think that is the most important issue facing us. O well. Status quo will be maintained.

I agree with this. We've gotten ourselves into a huge mess with out of control spending, so I would actually be willing to pay more in taxes if there was a guarantee that the government would use the money wisely (to pay down debt, much needed improvement/repair to vital infrastructure) and not just expand entitlement programs/pork barrel projects.
