The least we can do is fly all flags as we go over the cliff.
Clay - welcome to free republic. Looks like you’ve only been here less than a week. Usually people post articles and everyone comments. That’s the usual drill. What you have posted is essentially a “vanity”. We all occasionally post vanities but it is generally an exception. In your case you have posted two of them back to back harping on our weak RINO candidate. Like throwing red meat to a bunch of angry tigers. anyway - welcome aboard.
I can.
An alternative is to vote for a plurality to increase the chances that whichever bastard wins, Obama or Romney, faces the kind of motivated opposition that happens when the majority of Americans voted to reject him. The lower the plurality, the more vulnerable the President and the more powerful his opposition in Congress.
Clinton won on a 43% plurality in 1992. Fully 57% of Americans voted to reject him. It made him so vulnerable that the Republican Revolution followed. And that was a Clinton who was fairly popular. Imagine what would happen if Obama was re-elected on a 43% plurality OR LESS -- Obama is loathed as Clinton was not.
I'll vote FOR making it that rough and rocky for whichever menace wins by voting for an official third party candidate.
Folks who vote "against" Obama by voting for Romney are kidding themselves -- their vote "against" Obama is their vote FOR turning the Republican party hard left and making liberalism stronger in both parties.
That is what YOU will be voting for, NLZ. That is YOUR sign.
