Ryan seals the deal for me. I will vote for RR. In the best of circumstances I can see Ryan leading on policy for 8 years of a Romney administration and then taking over for a further 8 years to complete reforms of Supreme Court and the whole DC establishment.
Withholding a vote is a vote for Obama. Voting “present” isn’t an option if you have a concern for the future of your country..If you can vote for Ryan in 2016 or 2020..then should vote for RR now.

That is NOT going to happen. Romney will be Romney, just like he was in MASS., and Ryan will just be window dressing and will have zero influence. Romney will surround himself with liberals and his Salt Lake City buddies.

We all have to do what we think is right for our country, our families and our own peace of mind.

I fell for that trick last time, so I will write in Palin again.

Hoping y’all can help Ryan shine and keep Romney in the closet, but it’ll probably be the other way around. Only it won’t be shine we’re seeing with Romney at the helm.

His record is clear:

There is a greater ballot out there than the 2012 one. “ There is nothing new under the sun “, and neither is going-along-to-get-along, out of fear, as our GOPE history proves. We get worse and worse. For me, to support Romney squish on abortion is no way to move God to mercy. On the otherhand, when the Church prays and repents and shows it, God is moved and a nation is restored.

Please, stop with this sophistry.

There's only one way to vote for Obama, and that's to mark his name on your ballot.

The only kind of thinking that that calculates declining to vote for Romney is "a vote for Obama" is entitlement thinking.

There's only one way to vote for a liberal, and that's to mark his name on your ballot. Both Democrat and Republican loyalists will be voting for liberals this year.

I'll be voting for a plurality for whichever liberal wins. I'm going to use my vote the best way I know how.
