Much of FR close to Election Day 2012 = If you vote for anyone but the Republican candidate you are a traitor. It will be all your fault if Obama wins. Please, please, please vote for Romney.
Much of FR from 2013-present = I hate RINOs. I only vote for true conservatives. I refuse to vote for liberals. I'm done with the GOP. We need a 3rd party. Blah, blah, blah.
Much of FR close to Election Day 2016 = If you vote for anyone but the Republican candidate you are a traitor. It will be all your fault if (insert Dem candidate here) wins. Please, please, please vote for (Romney or Bush or Christie or...)
EXACTLY...They cave EVERY election cycle.
For the first time in my life in 2012, after more than 30 years of voting straight Republican ticket, I voted third party in the Presidential race. Voting for tyranny as the price of voting "against" tyranny is a losers' game.
