They will notice that it's even easier to screw you than they had hoped.

Voting for either of the two major parties guarantees we will get something that nobody actually wants, and I can't imagine a better definition of "throwing your vote away" than that.

Voting for anything but the Democrats is a vote for more of the same. If you think we are on a good track right now, then go ahead and vote for a third party.
The ideal government is when there is a balance of powers. It was true 200+ years ago when our founding fathers came up with our government, and it's true today. The only way anything gets passed is if it actually makes enough sense to appeal to most people on both sides of the aisle. Having one party control everything is the worst thing that can happen in our country. It's in the country's best interests to have the Democrats take back control of the Congess. Then the courts will be mostly conservative, the White House will be Republican, and the Congress will be Democrats.
Gridlock. It's the American way.
