So 'the end justifies the means'... That is not a conservative principle.

In November, there are only three options available to us (vote Romney, vote Obama, abstain) and only two outcomes possible (Obama wins, Romney wins).

Tell us your preference.

Stop telling us what you are against, and tell us who you want to win in November. And if you can, do not respond with name-calling and saying I'm a godless Romneybot or Obama supporter.

As I see it, we've lost in this election cycle. The only rational thing to be discussing now, is who will do the least damage over the next four years, and why. Meanwhile, spend our time productively to replace as many RINOs with Conservatives as we can over the next election cycles.

I disagree with your assessment - I will be voting for a Conservative - Goode or Hoefling... or perhaps a Libertarian, which would be the next best thing.

I don't vote *against*, I vote *for* a candidate - I will be voting *for* the closest thing to a Reagan Conservative I can get... Providing the candidate is palatable according to Conservative principles - And that candidate is 'who I want to win.'

Not necessarily. The TEA Parties are a powerful thing.

The I would highly suggest supporting Conservatism at all levels, to include the presidency. Give Conservatives someone to vote *for* and they will come a'running. Allow a liberal to carry the Conservative mantle, and they will stay home - and that will certainly effect the down-ticket that you seem to be concerned with.
