Exactly, although the “sky will fall if you don’t vote for whomever has an “R” after their name” will try to con everyone into voting for a non-starter like Mittens. I will not for the same reasons you will not. It has to stop.

If the Republican party wants my vote they had better run something other than a liberal like Mittens Romney.

Every four years we're told to hold our nose & vote for the CINO. And then we're also told the GOP will get more conservative in time for the next presidential nominating process & election - just you wait and see!

And every four years we're treated like suckers as the presidential nominees get more & more liberal.

Like the battered spouse who keeps returning....

That’s EXACTLY what the scumbag GOP establishment elitists are counting on.Knock yourself out if you want to be a sucker and reward those scum. I won’t.

Ok, let’s show those ungrateful bastards who’s in charge! Let’s not vote for the R candidate because we are in charge, and we’ll show them!
Let’s go ahead, while we show those Repub establishment types, and allow the most progressive candidate EVER have the opportunity to name more justices to the SCOTUS!
Let’s just go ahead, exert our power, while our country becomes more like Greece.
Let’s just go ahead, exert our power, while gas, coal and natural gas gets locked down and we have to pay out the arse to just get to work.
Let’s just go ahead, exert our power, and see what freedom we have left evaporate.
Yep, let’s show those ungrateful bastards where the real power is and just not vote!
I know the arguments for why we shouldn’t vote for the establishment candidate, I know the establishment has sold us out before, but FRIENDS it is do or die time for this country and we have to rebuild on what we have been given.
Make sure the conservative congressional and senate candidates win...that’s where the real power will be.
ABO means we stop the progressive train here and now by casting our votes strategically. Not voting, or voting for a third party candidate is NOT stratetic.
I was for Cain...then Gingrich...then Santorum...now I will be for Mittens if that is what it takes.

A vote for anyone except the R nominee is a vote for Obama and since the country is in such dire straits I will vote for the R nominee no matter who it is.

“Folks like me at least aren’t going to stay in a party that would promote Romney as its best.”

Ditto—what you say

If Obumbles wins by one vote, you are more than welcome to blame me.

New Hampshire,November of 2000.A grand total of 4 Electoral votes at stake there.Check out that state's results,use a little imagination (no more than a little would be needed,as you'll see as you look at the numbers) and then rework the Electoral College results.

What does that get you?

Too early yet for gut check.

It's possible that I vote for Mitt although I believe odds are about 5:1 against.

Absolutely certain that I will do nothing to campaign, support, or contribute, though.

“I refuse to vote for that anti-gun, queer agenda promoting, big government, abortionist, a$$hole!”

Me neither. That’s why I’m voting against him (Obama) and for Romney.

But you are ok with giving Obama a 2nd term. WTF?!?

No vote for Romney from me. His push for Romneycare is an unforgiveable in my book.

What will he do next time there’s a choice between a free market and govt solution? Pick govt.

With Romney we will get cap and trade. Obama tried to get it but repub congress fought it off.

Romney will get it w/repub congress cooperation.

See chain below about Romney indicating need to cut emissions.

"I can’t, in good conscience, vote for Romney. "

I can't vote for an abortionist, either. Millions of other conservatives will also sit out the election if Romney is nominated. Get ready for four more years of Obama......

What is Mittens record when appointing judges and legal representatives? Does he appoint strong constitutionalists?

Speaking of not wanting to deal with reality.

You mean “Gut Shot” time.

I held my nose and voted McCain. At least there was a difference between him and Obama.

There is no difference in Obama or Romney, ideologically. There is NO REAL Choice.

Either way, we are screwed highly. Therefore, let the screwing happen with a D in office.

I’ll vote down ticket and if possible write in Palin.

I respect and am considering the argument that now may not be the time to take on the GOP establishment.

But we are going to have to confront them sometime.
Can’t keep putting it off forever.

What to do...what to do?

In my years here at FR I’ve read that;

1) Citizens without children should not be allowed to vote.
2) Citizens collecting government assistance should not be allowed to vote.
3) Citizens without a college education should not be allowed to vote.
4) Citizens who do not pay income taxes should not be allowed to vote.
5) Citizens who do not own property should not be allowed to vote.
6) Citizens who do not belong to a political party should not be allowed to vote.

Since I fall into four of those catagories (1,2,3 and 6)....what to do?
