You could vote for whichever of the fourteen "third-party" candidates have managed to get on the ballot in your state.
I've considered myself a Republican since I was old enough to understand the concept of political parties, but the neoconservatives who've controlled the party for the last decade or so have proven themselves so incapable of governing that I don't think the second coming of Abraham Lincoln could win on the Republican ticket this year. I'm actually hoping that we Republicans suffer such an embarrassing defeat at all levels of government that it will shake most of the deadwood out of the party leadership. That will give the Democrats four to eight years to demonstrate that they're equally incompetent at running the country, hopefully leading to a similar purge on their side of the aisle.
