Yes, I’ll hold my nose, choke down the vomit and circle the bubble in for Romney. I can only pray he brings in other Republicans into the Senate allowing us to take it. I pray his coat-tails will be big enough so we keep the House

Such a great post. I feel the same way. When Romney was just short of "inevitable" (Lord how I have learned to hate that word), I was still at the spitting nails stage and told my dad that I would not vote for him. Reality has a way of softening our stance in dire circumstances such as the one in which we find ourselves at the moment. ABO with a heavy sigh of disgust at GOPE is the end of this road for me.

I will actively work for down ticket candidates and perhaps even a little bit for Romney. I have about $30-50 per month to give in the Sept to Nov season. That will all go to down ticket folk. The GOPE got what they wanted, they can figure out how to finance it without my donation.

The problem with that, as someone on some thread somewhere pointed out, is that if obama is in the WH, the Republican Congress with fight him and if Romney is in, they will support him, even though he proposes the exact same America destroying agenda simply because of partisan politics.

I cannot with a clear conscience vote for obama lite whom the House will back while destroying what is left of our country.

God help me. I don't want to sound like I think that obama would be a better choice than Romney because I don't. They're both going to destroy this country However, I see an obama presidency causing more of a backlash at all levels than a Romney presidency.

Either one will drag our country down, but I think there will be more kicking and screaming with obama in the White House.

The only potential for good that obama's second term would be is in terms of forcing the issue and bringing about a strong backlash with the hope that it would change things.

I guess I see this as the frog in the pot. With Romney, it's a slow boil killing us. With obama it's tossing it in quickly which COULD kill us if we let it.

That said, I do have this really BAAADDDD feeling that obama is going to get a second term and that the clock is going to seriously start ticking to count down the end.

I fear we're in for a rough ride, especially for reasons I can't get into here.
