There is another choice - represent conservatism or lose your power.
And what power might that be?
I don’t like it anymore than the next conservative. But pining your hope on beating Obama with someone other that Romney is a sure fire way to loose at this point.
I was a ABR guy. I still am, however, this time around I see no other option to stop obama.
I am not happy with this at all.
If somehow they manage to kick Romney to the curb in Miami and replace him with a conservative you will get no complaints from me.
By not helping RINOS stay in office, each of those RINOS loses his/her personal hold on power. By lowering the total number of Republican party members in Congress, the party loses some of it's power. By losing State Legislatures and Governorships, the party loses it's power at the State level.
Do you feel better when a liberal bill passes with a few RINO crossover votes than when it is a straight party line vote with fewer on the Republican side? I say it's worse - they can claim "bi-partisian" with the RINO votes.
