No thanks. I vote in the primaries and in the local elections for conservative candidates.
If the GOP nominates a liberal like McCain for president again they will not get my support. I vote on principle, not on party loyalty.
You’re not voting on principle. I dare say you don’t even understand the meaning of the word.
When November 2012 rolls around, you have a choice between Obama and the Republican. Nobody else has a chance of being elected. If you do not vote for the Republican, then you are the Union soldier who refused to fire his weapon at the Confederate soldier. You can say it’s “principle” but a conservative who does not vote for the more conservative candidate is helping the more liberal candidate. Those are the facts.
You may now resume your implicit support of Obama.
