The only solution here is campaign finance reform. Suggesting that it's a my party vs your party issue is laughable.
Finance reform will solve nothing. You can't stop a billionaire from investing in himself.
Blaming the standing president for systematic problems is a fairly reliable sign that someone is a member of the opposite party (or an independent that always votes one way, natch). Even if that somehow happens to not be the case for you, there's the little problem that we have a FPTP voting system which effectively means that elections always boil down to two options (assuming that you're a rational actor who understands vote splitting). Claiming that voting for one option shows "bad judgement" implies that the alternative (remember, FPTP => only one rational alternative) is better, so it really is a partisan statement.
Sanity check: would a statement of the form "Obama is bad because x,y,z" be necessarily partisan by this logic? No.

Sure you can, but for now that's a largely speculative failure mode. First let's solve the problem that our system effectively imposes a mandatory bribe quota on the candidates and see if that doesn't improve matters. If the problem you propose becomes an issue afterwards then we can fight over the whole "money is speech" argument.
There are the Cheneys of the world who seem to emit darkness and there are the Obamas of the world who offer an alternative but then do the same thing. Which one is worse?
They are both worse. Also, given the amount of candidates, it's amusing how we become bipolar with notions of good/evil. I prefer objectivity:
Vote for the cleaner voting record; that means some voting record and no PATRIOT Act, FREEDOM Act, etc.
The administration is attempting to weaken our sovereignty and globalize [overthrow] our government. They should be charged for treason.
If you voted Obama last time, please don't vote this time. Your bad judgement isn't necessary.
