You lied. Me pointing this out is not calling you a name, it is just me stating the truth.
You do not believe that Mitt Romney is more liberal than Deval Patrick. That is why you won’t explicitly say that you do believe this.
Instead all you do is play dishonest word games.
People on this thread have wondered why conservatives don’t just form a third party, and why existing third party candidates are all such weirdos. You are an excellent object lesson in the fallen nature of humankind and the difficulty of creating honorable political movements.
Through this thread you have made Mitt Romney look better.
You aren’t even going to win the vote in your own bathtub.
I think you’ve lost the argument. I’ll try not to take your insults personally though. You’re going through a process.
Why, when they have spent their time equating "Republican" with "Conservative", and denigrating the more Constitutionally based stances of third parties on individual issues as part of the denigration of "those wackadoodles"?
Now, to admit they were wrong, not just about some of the wackadoodles' positions, but defending the GOP like a battered spouse, is a bit too much for their egos to stand.
...and why existing third party candidates are all such weirdos.
When a group is constantly and vocally portrayed as being composed of a certain element of society, the members of that social element will tend to concentrate there and seek approval from others of like mind, whether the portrayal was accurate or not. It becomes a self-fulfilling prophesy.
There too lies a huge obstacle to forming a third party; overcoming the stigma which has been placed on anything which might disturb the status quo, by both Parties.
