How about principled but wrong? You can cast a meaningful third party vote for the future. However, to my mind, unless your candidate is a member of a party that has some realistic chance of gaining momentum and winning something somewhere in the foreseeable future, then voting for a third party candidate is a wasted vote. Measured by that test, voting for Perot the first time arguably was not a waste since there seemed the possibility that something with legs was being built. I don't think the same thing could be said about his second candidacy.
But Green votes? Libertarian? Peace and Freedom? All a waste.
