I have no problem with write-in candidates. I have a big problem with primary elections and the way that the two major parties make it difficult for candidates to get on the ballot.
In most cases, I would not consider voting for a write-in candidate who lost in a primary but if I believed that the GOP rigged the primary election by flooding a moderate candidate's campaign with money, as the GOP often does, then I would definitely consider voting for a write-in candidate as a protest.
It takes some effort to write in a candidate's name, so write-in candidates rarely impact the results, IMO.
If the national GOP's meddling results in the nomination of Jeb Bush or Chris Christie, then I will write in another name in 2016. I will not vote for another loser RINO in the general election. It does not make much difference to me if Hillary or Hillary-lite wins in 2016.
