I agree! Even if it splits the vote and the Dem wins that might be the cost of winning the long game, and we should be playing the long game.
Maybe have a grass roots tea party support for the Dem candidate....who ever that looser might be. Tea Party crossover votes to SCREW THE RNC.
the problem with playing the long game is, we end up with guys like Obama who will ruin the country in the meantime. I understand the sentiment and it may be the right one, but the best outcome would be to truly get an organized, staffed, funded, and engaged conservative movement that can help pushing these near-misses into the win column. We came this close (within the margin of fraud, some say) with one guy pretty much out on his own...think what could happen if there were a truly effective Conservative party movement with as much money behind it as Soros puts behind the Rats...
