With friends like you, we need no enemies. This year it seemed like we had about 97 conservative candidates to split the majority of Republican primary votes. We also had many states like my own Illinois which tolerates and even encourages non-Republicans voting in GOP primaries. Mushball DINOs who cannot really stand Obozo cross over and vote for Romney, the white Obozo.

Romney's absolute absence of conservative principle reassures the DINOs, RINOs and CINOs that socialism, baby slaughter, rump ranging posing as "marriage," gun grabbing, tax hiking, gelding of the military, and Obozocare rechristened as national Romneycare will continue apace but that it will be BIPARTISAN or even REPUBLICAN socialism, baby slaughter, rump ranging posing as "marriage," gun grabbing, tax hiking, gelding of the military, and Obozocare rechristened as national Romneycare. When "Republican" SCOTUS candidates are nominated, they will most resemble such memorable heroes of the left and of social issue revolution as David "Swish" Souter, Sandra Day (Planned Barrenhood) O'Weathervane, John Paul Stevens, Lewis Powell, Herod Blackmun, William Brennan, and Earl Warren and NEVER a John Roberts, Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, or Antonin Scalia.

And the beauty part (from a left Demonrat point of view) is that this will be accomplished by an hereditary RINO, thereby permanently gutting the potential of the GOP as a party in actual opposition to the leftist agenda. We may as well join the European Union now and get it over with. AND, Obozo's annoying self, his ever megaspending and vacationing wife, his openly communist "tsars," and his imbecile advisors and cabinet members go away after our four year national nightmare in favor of an even worse nightmare in which Romney takes care of the BIG money Wall Street corruptocrats who have financed his campaign of libels against every worthy GOP candidate and turns the nation's treasury over to them on the installment plan, and names a bunch of overeager utterly incompetent Muffies, Skippers and other windtunnel trust fund babies to ram through the "GOP" version of Obozoworld, thereby permanently destroying any hope that the GOP will EVER again be a vehicle for freedom and tradition and limited government, much less for morality.

Like you say, we each have to do what we think is right. I won't be joining you in November. I absolutely will NEVER be taken for granted again by the big money brainless and unprincipled forces who temporarily control the GOP. No more Fords, nor Bush Is, nor Doles, nor McCains, nor Nixons, nor Eisenhowers and most certainly no Romneys. What you correctly call the GOP politi-sluts will get no votes from me or from anyone I can influence. Maybe it takes four more years of Obozo to strip the Wall Street trash of enough money to guarantee that they will finance no more disgraceful campaigns than Romney has waged this year. He has advanced absolutely NOTHING in the way of positive issues and spent millions and millions and millions lying and distorting the records of each and every GOP opponent shamelessly. You may want to reward that. I won't. After he is defeated by the real pros at character assassination like Obozo and Axelrod, the GOP can be brought back on track.

If you think that Romney and the GOP's spineless mushballs eagerly supporting him are the majority of the GOP electorate, you are flat out wrong. When there were many conservatives in the race, Romney could win small pluralities. If his forces were a majority of the GOP, it would be time to destroy the GOP. Scorched earth. Rule or ruin. Romney would not govern to the right of Obozo in any meaningful way. His election would destroy the GOP as well as the country. Obozo may well destroy the country but he cannot destroy the GOP without the active help of the moneyed mushballs and their dupes who are SOOOOO obsessed with their understandable hatred of Obozo that they cannot see the evils that will be perpetrated in their name by Romney.

The very same could be said of you and yours who seem a bit too cozy with turning your back on the fight to go off to some other ill-defined skirmish (protest-vote or whatever) that no-one else will even notice. And I don’t care what/who you think I may be “rewarding” — I have only one goal that I care about and that’s getting rid of Obama. It really is just that simple. If you are so emotionally disgusted & angry with the process that it impedes your logic and reasoning, I can’t help you with that. If I could I would, but I can’t so I won’t.

All I know is that whoever the GOP candidate is, he will be far easier to influence with (hopefully) Republican majorities (or near majorities) in congress. We know for a fact, as Obama has demonstrated in word & deed, that he will not be swayed one iota by congress. I don’t care *who* the gop candidate is, until a better viable option comes along, I would rather take my chances with a gop presidency checked by a gop congress, than a 4-year lame-duck Obama presidency that fully and completely ignores congress, be it gop or dem.

I chose Newt in the primary. That was my chance to have a say in the process. Now, I’ll choose to keep doing whatever I can with whatever GOP candidate I have - because there is no other viable choice and I refuse to abandon the fight. Give me another *viable* option right of center and I’ll likely take it. But when the *only* other viable choice at this point is a 4-yr, far-left, lame-duck Obama presidency, I can’t see how you would knowingly and willingly allow that to happen without doing whatever you can reasonably do to fight it. Clearly, our opinions vary.
