When I read reasoning like the following, I don't see where any alternative is contemplated. I see only all or nothing thinking:
If romney wins I predict the gop will direct the party to do what Romney did in the past. SAY one thing; we're prolife, profamily.... fiscally conservative, but DO another. Like in the past Romney and the rinos will blame the left or say a judge made them do it. They will have bills that look conservative, but when you look closely it will contain compromises that conservatives will abhor.
If you believe that will end the Republic and the venue in which a political struggle can continue, then why vote in such a way as to give the larger enemy of The Republic four more years to work at it?
I think the gop-e has been working overtime getting there “chosen one” into office. Many people trusted the gop and believed them and romney about him being “seriously conservative”. I disagree.

Most conservatives are smart enough to look at what people DO and not what they say. Romney's fake pro life and pro family stands were for the primary. Romney would say one thing, then said or DID the opposite. Romney can't be trusted to keep his word.
-Romney refused to go to ONE pro life or pro family event. He said conservatives will vote for him. He is arrogant and not a conservative. At least Obama respects his people enough to go to their events and ask for their votes.
-Romney overruled his own Commissioner of Public Health and lied about state law in order to compel Catholic hospitals to issue abortifacient pills.
-Romney aggressively BOOSTED government funding for pro-homosexuality indoctrination. Parents could not opt out their 5 yr olds from indoctrination.
-Romney forced all adoption agencies in MA to let gays adopt innocent children. The Catholic Church had to stop Catholic Charities Adoption Services after doing it for 109 years.
-Romney refused to sign the pro life pledge.
-Raised taxes/fees over 300% while being Governor of MA.
-Implemented a state-level Cap and Trade system.
-Supported Man-Made Global Warming.
-Supported the Brady Bill.
- Implemented a state level Assault Weapons Ban after the Federal AWB was allowed to expire.
-Supported TARP.
-Supported Amnesty for Illegal Aliens (Citizenship for those already here).
-Supported McCain-Kennedy (Amnesty).
-We know he was the one who went after Sarah and HER FAMILY four years ago. HE gave us Obama. I guess he believed if he can't win, our nominee can't either.
