These people are no better than leftists, because they will not allow you to have an opinion that is independent of their own. If you refuse to vote for Mitt Romney, you are the enemy, and from that point on their only mission is to mock you, shout you down and do everything in their power to keep your ideas from being heard.
Very sad, really. They claim to call themselves conservatives.
One could say the same of the insults and ad hominem attacks leveled at ABO voters from the ABR crowd. I’ve been told I’m going to Hell for voting Romney if he’s the Rep. candidate, that I will need to “repent” and God “MAY” forgive me, that I’m complicit in whatever Romney’s sins are (I assume that applies to the other side as well since no one is above reproach according to Scripture).
I’ve also been told I’m no kind of conservative, that I “LOVE” Romney (untrue), that I am “worshipping” him (QUITE UNTRUE), that I “lick his boots” (so ridiculous as to not even be worthy of discussion), blah blah blah. All because I am convinced without the shadow of a doubt that Obama is far more dangerous to this nation than Romney at the moment. The very things you are describing are tactics being used here against ABO voters. Those are indeed leftist tactics and I doubt the conservative credentials of anyone who uses them.
