Voting has always been a choice of the "lesser of evils" for me. I wish it wasn't that way, but it seems it usually is.You guys have brought some amazing points and this thread has caused me to think a lot about how I would feel in each scenario presented. In regards to being a one-issue voter for a paycheck regardless of what else that candidate may spewing, that can present a challenge for some; particularly those people who have been targeted or have loved ones who have been targeted, either directly or indirectly, by the same bigotry that a candidate outwardly supports. If I were even close to being an attending, it wouldn't be such a no-brainer decision. In a way, voting for that person could prove an anathema to my experience. I certainly don't disagree with some of the points you've made because as a physician you've worked your ass to get to where you are and you should be able to enjoy the fruits of your labor but sometimes the answer isn't so cut and dry.
