I agree. I could have voted for Cain, Bachmann, Santorum, Gingrich, even Perry. But, Huntsman, Romney, and Johnson were not in the running. I have my standards. Romney isn't losing my vote, simply because he never had it in the first place. In four year's time Romney did not raise himself to a higher standard and become a beacon for conservatism everywhere. No. He is still a progressive liberal that was so unappealing in 2008 he made John McCain look less like a RINO. He hasn't changed in four years. Neither have I. I wouldn't vote for him then, and I'm consistent in that today.

At the same time, I’ve been trying real hard to direct as much or more fire at Obama as at Romney.

I’ve spent the primary season berating Romney just because he was the opposition.

Now BOTH are the opposition, and I’ve got some catching up to do in blasting Obama.

In fact, I would prefer to injure Obama MORE. Obama hates Israel and Romney does not. That doesn’t make Romney acceptable to me, but it does mean Obama should be hit harder. At the same time, being honest, it is Romney’s ONLY saving grace. However, I will will not vote for a pro-abortion, pro-homosexualism, pro-gun control, crony corporatist.

It’s like the War on Terror in my mind. BOTH Iraq and Afghan were enemies, but Iraq was the one that needed shock and awe the most.
