After all, we keep getting lectured by FREEPERs, they'll vote for ANYBODY over Obama...so that would include Hillary, right?

Folks declare, why, they'd vote for an orange juice can before they'd vote for Obama, by Jupiter!!!

Yeah, and voting for Romney would be as stupid as voting for an orange juice can.

I wish more Republicans would THINK IT THROUGH.

I firmly believe voting for Romney is voting for the destruction of our nation. Imagine I have handed you two glasses with water. I tell you one is 50% filled with Roundup and the other is 40% filled with Roundup. Are you going to drink from either of the two glasses, just because they have been handed to you?

Amen, Brother FReeper.

...if enough people don't see obama as the enemy to be defeated then he will destroy us. That is reality.

Wrong. That is panic and fear.

****Being a yahoo poll I would have thought Obama would be further ahead.***

Nope, Federal Bloc appoints Mandate-Mitt over the Undocumented Coffee Server.

...not just have a temper tantrum to punish the rest of us.

*sigh*

Speaking as a 100 percent Romney and Obama rejector, that you perceive that as my motive is both mistaken and insulting. It also reveals that you perceive yourself as better and more "mature" than those of us who are trying to warn you what a mistake it is to back Romney. You think it's about ego; I know it's about how best to use your precious vote.

Hmmmmmmmmm ... "temper tantrum" .... elections ... hmmmm ... Peter Jennings, wasn't it him, who declared that voters had a "temper tantrum" when Republicans took over Clinton's first congress?

How could any good American who loves God and country not vote against Obama? I don’t care who the other candidate is....anyone short of Satan himself would get my vote over Obama. We have to get him out. Then we can worry about fighting for our conservatism.

"Neither" is not the same as sitting out.

Wasting your vote on a third party candidate is worth a half vote for Obama. If you follow through with your "Neither" stand, Barack Obama will be very grateful for your principled stand against his Republican opponent. You can truly make a difference!

Scare tactics are not a logical argument. I believe the argument is what is known in philosophy as a false-dicothomy. There is always a third choice. We aren't sheep that simply get two options, you have to live life in accordance with your conscience and principals.

For an elaboration of option three please consult the nearest Declaration of Independence and 2nd amendment. A copy of Henry David Thoreau "Civil Disobedience" might also be a good suggestion if dying isn't your thing.

Michael Berry is a conservative talk show host in Houston and a few other cities, he just had the most chilling piece of radio I have ever heard. He explained how the Romans were able to take over people and showed exactly how obama is doing the same thing. You might be able to find MB’s program at Michael Berry.com.

Yesterday he ranted about how much he disliked Romney and offered up all his bad points. Then he said he would do everything is his power to elect Romney because obama is 1000X worse.

I guess the bright side is Romney probably won’t bow to the Kind of Saudi Arabia.

(ARE you sure???? I don't think you know Mormonism very well...Here's a headline from just last week...one article among MANY like this arising out of Utah:)

BYU-Hawaii student prez: Mormons made me a better Muslim: BYU-Hawaii » New student-body president credits LDS classmates with making him a better Muslim

So, Mormonism constantly vies for alignment with Islam...and why not? Muslims deem Christians as "infidels"; Mormons join them in labeling Christians as "apostates".

Both of those religions are in league to denigrate, castigate and slander worldwide Christianity...

How "inspiring" that is...that so many Christians want to vote for a candidate (either Romney or Obama) who deems them and their entire family and fellow worshippers and ancestors to be spiritually AWOL

Wasting your vote on a third party candidate is worth a half vote for Obama. [Always a Marine]

No vote for Obama from me. Not even a half-vote because I’m giving it to someone other than Obama. You can figure anyway you like. Not voting Romney or Obama.Lots of amateur mathematician-philosophers out lately on FR. [ResettoZero, post 110]

The "logic" of trying to portend a third-party vote as a "half-vote" for Obama is the same logic that has to conclude -- by this very same logic -- that ALL votes not cast for the victor were "wasted" votes.

If your vote didn't wind up electing somebody, then it didn't "count" for anything. It didn't make a difference.

Hence...since the MSM will promptly destroy Mandate Mitt by showing his meandering social-issues hypocrisy...his support of racism the first 13 yrs of his ADULT life...his "spirit-birth" on another planet...minus a birth certificate to show it...his proxy necro-baptisms...who knows how many holocaust victims??? And the fact that he & all temple Mormons think they are gods in embryo on their way to full-grown godhood...

Mitt will be the losing candidate...and all Mitt advocates will have thereby wasted their vote and forever traded in their conservative credentials & reputation for a lentil-soup candidate.

Once people see there's no social-issues or trim-govt difference in the candidates, the true conservatives will realize, "Why bother" voting for Zero's twin brother? They are BOTH Big govt. 800-lb gorillas!

You are right.

We shouldn't vote for a Mormon for President. We should just stand around with our fingers up our butts and allow an anti-American, gun-grabbing, Marxist, Muslim, Racist Imposter to get re-elected. THAT will show those Mormons.

That would make me feel much better.

Thanks for straightening out that little conundrum for me.

Thank you. Thank you. Needed to see someone else put this in writing.

Yes.

We certainly showed John McCain last time around. THAT was a BRILIANT act of defiance - not voting for that cranky old RINO and letting Obama get elected.

BRILIIANT.

Just tell me, if you can't take over an EXISTING political party and turn it around, what makes you think you can start an independent party and be successful?

The Marxists tried that some time ago and even THEY were smart enough to learn from experience they couldn't do it and so they took over the Democrat Party and became far more successful.

We have to TAKE OVER the GOP - from the BOTTOM UP, not the top down. And we have to hold our noses, take a bitter pill, and vote for Romney to keep that Muslim Marxist bastard from totally destroying America. WE KNOW Romney's problems. But he is clearly the lesser of two evils. If we can elect enough conservatives to Congress, THEY will hold Romney's feet to the fire and make sure he doesn't stray.

MEANTIME, we need to TAKE OVER THE GOP COMMITTEESHIPS and run conservative candidates at the lower levels to position ourselves for a party “putsch” in 2016.

They are a recognized party, he has experience with our government, and there are a number of states already having the CP on its ballot with others surely to acquiesce prior to the election.

Do you know which states do NOT have the CP on their ballot? New Hampshire didn't in 2008...'Live Free or Die', my *ss...

“Yes. We certainly showed John McCain last time around. THAT was a BRILIANT act of defiance - not voting for that cranky old RINO and letting Obama get elected. BRILIIANT.”

RTZ: Why are you angry at me? I voted for McCain.

“Just tell me, if you can’t take over an EXISTING political party and turn it around, what makes you think you can start an independent party and be successful?”

RTZ: Do not intend to do this; never did.

“The Marxists tried that some time ago and even THEY were smart enough to learn from experience they couldn’t do it and so they took over the Democrat Party and became far more successful.”

RTZ: That’s correct.

“We have to TAKE OVER the GOP - from the BOTTOM UP, not the top down.”

RTZ: Agree with you.

“And we have to hold our noses, take a bitter pill, and vote for Romney to keep that Muslim Marxist bastard from totally destroying America. WE KNOW Romney’s problems. But he is clearly the lesser of two evils. If we can elect enough conservatives to Congress, THEY will hold Romney’s feet to the fire and make sure he doesn’t stray.”

RTZ: On this we part company. Conscience dictates no vote for Romney or Obama. No apology. Hope you are right about Conservative Congressmen holding his feet to the fire if he’s elected.

“MEANTIME, we need to TAKE OVER THE GOP COMMITTEESHIPS and run conservative candidates at the lower levels to position ourselves for a party “putsch” in 2016.”

RTZ: Okay. Lead the way.
