So they're abandoning Romney and somehow find Obama more appealing. How anyone could consider themselves "tea party," yet kneel at the feet of Obama doesn't make sense. But then... very little of what's happening in this country makes sense anymore.
About that evangelical Christian number... how many of those people are "christians" of the Jim Wallis mode? That's a huge factor.
Anecdote, not data:
We know a young couple, under 40 w/2 kids. Both hard workers. The husband had some down time a few years ago and filled in where ever and w/whatever he could. No one had a clue, but they had not been able to make their mortgage and they lost the house recently. They belong to a fundamentalist church. He has stated that zer0 is a Muslim. They take no government aid.
They support xer0 and think Romney is crooked. Nothing will change their minds.
It is beyond frustrating.
They aren’t kneeling at the feet of Obama. They are the holier-than-thou purists that refuse to vote for Romney, thus are complicit in destroying the very Country they profess to love.
Imbeciles and traitors all.
No one is abandoning Romney. The GOPe tried to force Romney down their throats, and they aren't having it.
Nor, as far as I have seen, have ANY Freepers said that they would vote for Obama. They have simply said that they cannot in good conscience vote for either one of them, since they are both gay marriage supporters, baby killers, and big government socialists. And, I would add, entitled narcissists of the first order.
Is this the fault of Evangelicals with principles? Or is it the fault of the corrupt GOP party handlers, who keep on trying to force lousy candidates on the conservative base?
Nobody in his right mind WANTS to be put in the position of not being able to vote for either candidate. But that's apparently what the corrupt politicians keep trying to do to us. It's a hell of a mess.
