Meh, for every person who thinks they are accomplishing something by not voting for a candidate that can win, another usually realizes the folly of having done that in the past and goes back to casting a ballot that counts.
When you drop out of the system, no one cares. You impress no one, you prove nothing, you achieve zilch. The 2 major party's pursue, first and foremost, actual likely voters. The more conservatives that sit out, the less the GOP will care about their voice and the faster they will move to the new center (meaning further left). We've seen this play out elsewhere and it just allows the socialists to accelerate their ability to change the culture and the politics of this land.
The GOP can't win unless it moves right. Move right, you might get some support. Until then, you can forget about it.
Fear doesn't sell. If I voted GOP, I would be enabling those liberals and accelerating the move left.
No thanks.
The GOP keeps losing, don't they?

As to "likely voters," I have never failed to vote in 44 years. I am just not voting any longer for the trash that the GOP-E vomits up onto our ballots by buying nominations as Mittler did. I also note that you only see fit to reference "socialism" as though only money mattered. You will sweep the polo players and the art afficionados and the charity contributor tax dodgers. Good luck finding a majority by appealing only to such voters.
Don't hold your breath waiting for me to come back to be used by the GOP-E and its useless Demonrat-lite candidates.
Yeah. Right, Longbow -- your vote for Romney counted for squat. Even if he'd won, it would have counted for squat.
Wake up.
