The only responsible vote is a vote for no one (or a third party, which amounts to the same thing).
Sorry, but no. Abstention only passes the buck to other people, and increases the odds that I will end up with somebody who has, not only the problems you describe, but worse versions of them, and more problems of other kinds besides.
The only responsible vote is for the person who comes closest to the ideal you want to achieve. And then you keep pushing for it to be better.
