Just to clarify my position, I ‘get’ why people will vote for MR. I get that Obama is the ultimate disaster and they are banking on less of a disaster...which I’ll give you he is. Let me explain my overall position by way of an example I used before on FR and hopefully it will help you understand my and perhaps others position better. Short version...

For a number of years I was Senior Ed at Off-Road.com. we were heavily into land use issues for obvious reasons and were quite vocal, even garnering network and major media coverage. Our thing was to go at the eco nuts full bore, giving no quarter. It made us lots of friends in the public and industry and just as many enemies. We had some successes of note but our biggest problem proved to be our own readership. you see, many of them were the very same go-along/get along types that infest the Republican party and much of America.

The end result was that rather than stand up to the Sierra/BLM et all, they chose to ‘get along’ and instead of standing for what they KNEW to be right, they chose the ‘lesser evil’ of compromise with the greens.

The very same tracts of land that they ‘compromised’ a bit of closure on 13ish years ago are totally closed today.

Bottom line: That compromise with evil cost them everything. As will compromise with the Liberal Republican win today. History is one tape loop of events. Hopefully the above will help you get a better idea of why I believe as I do.

No explanation necessary. I was where you are about a month or so ago. I understand your reasoning.
