Only conservative Republicans.

Completely false statement, ynot. Fighting Obama and Romney is not fighting conservatives. It is fighting liberals.

And you know it. The litany of Romney's liberalism is lengthy and undeniable.

I bear you no ill will for holding your nose and voting for Romney, even though you know he's a liberal, because I did that, too, in the past with John McCain, Daddy Bush, and Cialis Bob Dole, all moderate to liberal who ran to lose.

Honesty, though, should have you acknowledge that conservatives who can't do the "hold the nose" routine are still conservatives who simply see things differently than you do.

Like me, you're in a major swing state, so I understand your angst. I'm in Ohio, but I'm still voting conservative. I still hold out hope, though, that the Convention will dump Romney in favor of a conservative. In the absence of that, I'm voting my principles.

Not voting for Mitt Pétain here in Michigan either.

What is the point of voting for one party over the other when the party you vote for adopts the same policies as the party you oppose.

There's no way that will happen. The GOP-E has conservatives exactly where they want them - licking their hands like whipped puppies. There is no way on earth the GOP-E is going to withdraw its own candidate and give conservatives a hope spot.

You are working over time for B. Hussein Obama and we both know it. You couldn’t do more for him and against conservative values then coming to the number one conservative website in the country and trying to convince us that it is ok to let Obama win a second term. I don’t have to hold my nose to vote for Romney, I will proudly vote for him for President over Obama and Connie Mack over Bill Nelson for US Senator and Will Weatherford, our next Speaker of the Fl House for my Rep. I couldn’t care less about your “principals”. This is a choice and you chose Obama and you are trying to get the feeble minded to follow your path to the demise of our great republic and that is inexcusable. You are as principled as the British General in the movie Bridge over the River Kwia who would rather see his own men died than to blow up the bridge. It’s gonna blow, with or without you. Romney 2012.
