Having been here for several elections, I've seen your type come and go, and have a very good historical reason for not trusting posters that signed up right before an election.
I will vote my principles, which means that I will not vote for a pro-abortion, anti-gun, socialized medicine, big government liberal.
As far as the nation's survival? I've heard that hysteric crap every single election season for years. It doesn't sell any more. We're still here, and we'll still be here in 4 years, regardless of which liberal wins.
You want to win elections? Get the GOP-E to quit badtalking conservatives (Rove), or cheating (Virginia, Florida, etc). to get their liberal boy the nomination.
