But i'm not "abandining" all republicans just because the president is behind the curve on this important issue.

Vote for what is right, and the best candidate will get elected.

Many people don't see, or won't acknowledge that the Republican party has been corrupted by people who do not support the stated platform, and have another agenda, other than the defense of American culture and Constitution as their goal. If the republican grassroots cannot weed them out of the party, then the solution is to elect others regardless of party who stand on constitutional principles and will defend our country and our way of life.

Yes, I agree. And in fact sometimes that will mean a democrat will win. But that means next election there won't be a republican incumbent, and the party may remember how they lost before and throw their support behind a good conservative.
