The reality that some refuse to face is that the ONLY choice is the Obama-loving Dems or less than perfect Republicans.

Just remember how this “victory” turned out ultimately — handing an R seat over to the Dems:

Sen. Richard Lugar defeated by tea party challenger

http://articles.latimes.com/2012/may/09/nation/la-na-lugar-election-20120509

“Conservative rival Richard Mourdock easily wins Indiana’s Republican Senate primary over the 35-year incumbent. He will face Democratic Rep. Joe Donnelly in the general election.”

Followed by:

Joe Donnelly upsets Richard Mourdock in Indiana

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1112/83440.html

“Democratic Rep. Joe Donnelly pulled off a stunning upset over Republican Richard Mourdock in the Indiana Senate race — a battle that the GOP thought was a sure win until the final days of the campaign.”

BFD. That's a distinction without a difference given the pathetic crop of "R"'s occupying the leadership in Washington. Not a dime's worth of difference between them and the "D"'s.

Innovative,

I've played the "half-a-loaf," "hold muh nose," "lesser of two evils," game since 2000. I'm DONE. If McConnell is helping RINOs win on the backs of Dem voters then there's no use. Please note that I don't want conservatives to support Grimes, but Grimes will likely win due to low voter turnout by conservatives and independents in the general election.

Wow, surprisingly, you are ignoring the party preferred candidates losing in FL, VA, WI, NM, MA, and ND in 2012. Let’s focus myopically on one race. That makes perfect sense.
