I do not think Pat said he was not voting.
The article is very interesting and makes some good points.
The pathetic attempt to get voters to the polls:

How an unpopular choice can win an election for president when a half way decent choice arises from the ranks of Libitarian or more along my thoughts a F. Ross Perot pops up. My Aunt and Uncle campaigned for the first time in their life for Perot and when he didn't even come close, they swore off voting.

First, voting is futile. It would be a mathematical miracle if our vote actually decided the result of an election. And aren't we all told, when we contemplate voting for a Libertarian or a Nader, that doing so is "wasting our vote" because the third party candidate "can't win"? This means causing a victory is the only way not to waste your vote.
