Operation Chaos: Ohio Farmer Edition?

Probably not.  I am a registered Republican because all the local election decisions are made in the Republican primary.  In 2008, I switched over to vote in the Democratic primary for Obama against Clinton (to no avail).  Tuesday I could cast a vote for Santorum or Romney based on who I would consider to be the weaker opponent in the fall, but instead I'll probably cast a vote for Ron Paul.  Why?  As a protest vote.  I think Romney and Santorum are each deeply flawed, and I don't want to support either one, even though I think Romney has a better chance of actually winning the Presidency in the fall.  I'll vote for Paul in spite of his crazy gold bug tendencies.  At least he isn't stampeding toward war with Iran like the three stooges also on the ballot with him.  I have no concern that Paul has any chance to win the nomination, so I don't have any concern that I will regret that vote in the fall.
