The slogan, “anyone but Obama” still holds for me
“And although I have never worked in a campaign, I would work tirelessly against any third party spoiler”
Mitt = Obama
It’s very likely mitt would take more liberal votes from obama than he would take from a third party conservative...
This is a huge problem. Mitt is the same as Obama as both of them will destroy America. However, voting for Mitt has the additional disadvantage of giving control of the GOP back to the RINOs. I would rather grit my teeth and tolerate one more Obama term if I know that RINOs are losing control of the GOP. Besides, the next election will see the GOP gain control of the House and the Senate. So it won't be that bad.
Did the RINOs behave like you did in case of Murkowski? Did they oppose her third party candidacy? Loyalty cannot be a one way street.
