“It is very possible that Romney winning the election will do more damage to the Republican party than Obama winning reelection.”

I remember the 2008 fiasco, where so many claimed that Obama winning would be good for the republican party, it would, somehow, teach the party a lesson. Good people backed a candidate and only that candidate. when that candidate failed to gain any traction, the good people supporting him claimed they would rather have Obama in office than a rino, they would rather have the republican party in tatters than have that rino in office. That particular rino not receiving support did not vote for nor support Obamacare. Of course, we have a different rino this time. But, so many are only supporting candidate X, no matter what. If that person isn’t the nominee, well, there’s no use voting, right? Supreme court nominations no longer seem to matter, right?

And when people stay home, so goes the votes down the ballot.

The quote at the top isn’t my words. In fact, it’s the opposite of my opinion.
