Protest non-voting pushes the overtone window even farther to the right.

Are you suggesting non-voting and voting for Democrats is essentially the same?

No, that protest non-voting helps Republicans, because it's much less likely a right-winger will protest non-vote.

Have you ever considered voting for good, rather than one of the two evils?

The time to vote for good is in primaries. In a general election, "good" is usually not on the ballot, just "less bad."
