The lesson of the past is we keep voting for the GOP establishment candidate handed to us and the GOP establishment keeps handing them to us.
Each year it is the same, with people saying we have to vote for the GOP candidate because the other choice is worse. What is worse though?
By continuing to vote for the GOP establishment candidate year after year we see year after year decline. Remember, the GOP had control of the House, Senate and the White House and did nothing with it. Remember their speeches when the Dem's took over and the GOP got trounsed. Oh, we're sorry, we know we did not do what we had the power to do, were sorry. That's what they said.
Guess what? Until conservative voters sit out an election en mass you are going to get the same all over again and again and again.
Sorry, I will not vote for Romney. If enough conservatives do the same thing then in four years the GOP establishment will realize they need to listen. I repeat, I will not be voting for Romney.
We have heard this before. I’ve said the same thing before. Remember Ross Perot? Conservatives abandoned George Bush Sr. in favor of Ross Perot. Result? Bill Clinton. Yeah - we really showed them. Not a truly conservative nominee since then.
Thank you for that timely word. Yes, and when we complained that nothing was getting done, even while the GOP held the presidency and both houses of congress, the establishment told us, "We need a super-majority to get those things done! Give us a super-majority!" Buncha lyin' power mongers.
