No, FRiend, not trying to get you zotted! But I didn't ask you if you liked Romney better than Obama. I asked if you would rather see Romney win than Obama. :^)

My conclusion, arrived at after a LOT of dispassionate thought and calculation, is that in fact Obama would be BETTER for making conservatism stronger than Romney would be (Romney would be a much more powerful destroyer of conservatism, in fact), especially if Obama was elected on a pathetic plurality such that as much as 66 percent of American voters were on record as OPPOSED to Obama. Cynics and surrender monkeys wail that "it wouldn't make any difference! A plurality win is still win!" but that is plain fear and emotion talking, unless they actually believe that the Republican Revolution in Congress would have happened if Clinton ahd been elected with 53 percent of the vote instead of 43 percent.

Both Romney and Obama are bad news for America. There is no "lesser evil" between them. Voting for one is as bad as voting for the other.

I'll have to work with the hand I'm dealt, and if it comes to Obama vs Romney in the 2012 presidential race, the BEST way to play the hand is to vote third party so whichever bad guy wins will get in in such a way as to make him as weak a vote-getter as possible and to make his opposition as motivated and validated as possible.
