I cannot blame you for thinking you are standing up for principles, but what is our alternative?
We don’t really have a choice - that went out 2 centuries ago. We are only given a highly limited choice. Write-ins don’t happen. So, as they say - the lesser of 2 evils.
Bear in mind a certain segment is going to be out in force as it never is, again for Uhbama, and probably tips everything for him. The fewer vote R, the MUCH more likely D this election, almost like ‘08.
“Write-ins don’t happen”
Write ins can happen...thus we had Murkowski from Alaska reversing the results in Alaska on the strength of many write ins!
I understand your line of thinking. I held my nose and voted for McCain, only because of Palin. For me, holding my nose and voting for Romney this time around is something I don't think I'm going to be able to do. To me its no different than the Republicans in Congress going along with the Democrats, just to get along...even when they are in the majority. We bitch about them doing that all the time, not having any backbone, then we turn around, and go along with the GOP at the voting booth, despite how we feel about the candidate they've chosen for us. I would rather send the GOP a message that their hand-picked RINOS will no longer be tolerated. How each one of us does that is our decision on election day.
