Yet people here will sit on their butts instead of voting for a Republican who falls short of their view of the perfect conservative.
For YEARS Jim had the list comparing the records of the two posted. Romney was no less liberal than Barry. In fact, the more conservative of the two actually won. Barry, in office, was at one time against homo marriage. Mitt can’t even hang his hat on that. THAT is how disgusting Romney was. If you want ed lesser evil, you actually GOT the lesser evil.
Should have voted for a conservative and at least kept your principles intact.
Yeah baby, let’s elect a few more Mitch McConnel, Kelly
Ayotte, John MCain, John Boehner, Kevin McCarthy types.
Because after all EVERY one of them claimed they were
Conservatives.
That will work out just as well!
Romney fell short of being a “perfect conservative????” Yes by about 98.6% and the other 1.4% were where Comrade Mittens got confused. I suspect that George McGovern was to Mittens’ right ideologically. I and an increasing number of actual conservatives will NEVER vote for another Romney, McCain, Dole, Bush the Elder (Bush the anybody), Gerald Ford, Richard Nixon, ad infinitum, ad nauseam.
I voted for the candidate that "falls short" the last two times.
We still have open borders, higher energy costs, rampant unemployment, and the list goes on....
SCREW that!
Dude, at this point, I'd settle for a Republican who is like a moderate Democrat.
I can't even get THAT.
You can pretend that going out and voting for a functional Democrat registered as a Republican isn't a wrong thing to do for America.
You can pretend that you were voting "against" Obama, although mathematically and materially, anyone who votes anywhere, ever, is limited to casting votes FOR a candidate or proposal, even if that proposal is to NIX something (like voting "against" a proposition is materially and mathematically voting FOR nixing the proposition).
You can pretend that going out and voting for a pro-homosexual-agenda, pro-on-demand-abortion, pro-nationalized-health-care, pro-environmentalist Republican president isn't a betrayal of every moral and political principle that conservatives hold dear. You can PRETEND all you want that you didn't do something downright stupid and bad when you voted for Romney, because if that bastard had WON, America and certainly the Republican party would likely be in WORSE shape than they are now.
You are responsible for what you vote FOR, and when you voted for Romney, you voted for a lot of wicked, evil stuff. OWN IT, please.
But indeed, your post sadly proves that pretending is all you are doing. The ONLY thing you did when you voted for Romney, was to vote FOR the Republican party to punish limited government conservatism and to advance leftist tyrannical government.
YOU did the wrong thing when you voted for the guy.
