Here on FR we will ride our ideological purity train straight into four more years of Obama.

I could be wrong but I've been noticing that a lot of those "I'll never vote for Romney" posters are from Freepers residing in hard blue states like California where they can "stand behind their principles" as it doesn't really matter. California will vote 60+% for Obama regardless.

Myself, on the other hand, am registered to vote in Florida. I don't have such a luxury. I want Obama out of the White House and I can't really sit on my ass come election day.

I said pretty much the exact same thing a few days ago. I live in Virginia. I am in a swing state and my vote counts. Jim is both old and in California - what he does matters little.

You’re absolutely right - people who live in Connecticut, Massachusetts, California, New York, DC - their votes really don’t count. For those of us who have 60 years left to live AND who live in a swing state, I have to take what I can get now no matter how flawed he may be.

I have seen these idiotic checklists of all the liberal things Romney has done and how evil he is. The last one is something like “nominated 27 of 36 Democrat judges.” Well, even if you assume the rest of the list is true (and it’s not), I know for a fact that with Obama, that would’ve been 36 out of 36.

It’s simple. It’s either Romney or Obama.
