I never enter political debates with children or idiots. People who don’t think BO will be FAR worse for America are one or the other. And unworthy of debate.

If all you’ve got is name calling you don’t enter debates, just flame wars. You also clearly don’t know history.

In the long run the numbers work out better for conservatives with a truly opposing president than a liberal with an R after his name. It’s all about midterm elections, the party of the sitting president loses seats in midterms, and the second midterm is a bloodbath (the dems hit par in 2006 half the time it’s bigger). So if obie wins the dems take a major bath in 2014, then an actual conservative R can take the White House in 2016 with workable majorities. If Romney wins he continues most of obie’s policies AND the dems gain seats in 2014, then if he wins reelection in 2016 the dems get major gains in 2018, and because sitting VPs often win the nomination but almost never win the presidency a dem gets the White House in 2020 with a workable majority.

You’ve got to understand the difference between the battle and the war. Some battles aren’t that bad to lose. I’d prefer a good republican in the White House, but none ran. So this is what we’ve got, 2 guys with very similar mindsets, 2 guys that will continue the run away spending, 2 guys where the only noticeable difference is the letter after their name, 2 guys that quite simply don’t deserve my vote.
