Does making it easier for the worse evil to win, knowing that Obama or Romney would be the next President, make things right with God? Anyone who believes that Goode or any other third party candidate had a chance can stop reading now.

I'm sure God doesn't look at things in a pragmatic way. He expects me to live by his laws, not by the lessor of two evils rule that you are employing.

I've been hearing a lot of that nonsense lately, and most of it coming either from those who would be considered GOP-E, or supported Romney whole-heartedly, or who are Moderates in the GOP.

Hearing what? That our next President was either going to be Romney or Obama? Fine, post your rebuttal of how this was wrong.

When we have someone whose record as Governor proclaims him to be a Progressive Liberal as our Presidential Candidate, this kind of weak reasoning is almost self-fulfilling. When the GOP runs someone who is Pro-Gay Agenda, Pro-Abortion, what do you expect?

First of all, I agree with your assessment of Romney's voting record. That's why I say, once he was nominated of course, that I was voting for Romney to stop Obama, and a Conservative Congress to stop Romney. Neither happened.

That said, I expect you to face the REALITY that we got stuck with Romney, because that's who the voters nominated. You want to blame the GOPe, but who within the GOPe pointed a gun at anyone's head and forced them to vote for Romney during the primaries?

The whole premise that this idea that the country is moving center-left is built on a shaky foundation of half-facts.

So, why don't you share those half facts and your rebuttal to them? And don't forget to explain why the primary voters nominated Romney if they weren't moving to the, as you said, center-left.

I'm sure God doesn't look at things in a pragmatic way. He expects me to live by his laws, not by the lessor of two evils rule that you are employing.

Since you invoke God, why don't you try doing what He said, which is "Go and make disciples of all nations", and not to go writing some of us off because we may not be "non-Hispanic whites". You want to win again, then do what God said rather than take the easy way out.
