I hear that but don't exactly follow the analogy of voting for something you hate with standing around and waiting.
To me it's closer to someone kidnapping you with a gun asking you if you want to be shot in the face today or tomorrow. It's perfectly rational to choose tomorrow. But plenty of folks, myself included, would sooner just spit in their face than make that kind of "choice".
Sure if you pick it apart to break the analogy. I agree with choosing tomorrow. Most people would also try and get on a liferaft over just standing on the Titanic watching it sink (in reference to the analogy I was responding to).
