Exactly. I once said exactly the same thing, it would have been hypocritical of me to vote for George Bush after he made a deal with the democrats in congress and broke his pledge to not raise taxes. (Surprise!) The democrats never followed through with their promised spending cuts. I, and 19 million others, refused to cast a vote for Bush. We voted for Perot...and helped to elect Bill Clinton who walked into office with only 43% of the popular vote.
I learned my lesson. It's hypocritical to stand aside and let bad things happen. Never again will I cast a protest vote or stand aside and let the chips fall were they may.
I have spent 20 years witnessing to the LDS, countering their arguments and praying for them. To vote for one for POTUS would make me a hypocrite. I know too much about them to ever trust one for POTUS.
I held my breath and voted for W and for McCain. That is over. I can’t believe people think Romney will be ANY better than Obama. He won’t - his record proves that.
I’ll probably vote Ron Paul to protest in the primary this week but I wont vote for him in the General.
