There is no principle involved in voting for laughable candidates with no chance. Petulance is not principled. And working for the enemy certainly is not principled merely denying reality.

Romney was never my candidate but my candidates either refused to run, shot themselves in the foot or were beaten by Romney in a fair fight. He will not be ideal (and we won’t even get into his religion) but compared to this Communist he is 100x better for our nation. Elect an overwhelmingly GOP Congress with more conservatives and Romney will not be a problem. Congress can say “no” to his goofy ideas as well as those of The Disaster.

Four more years of this and you can say goodbye to our future. That is not principled.

Adams was often wrong and I do not take him as my guide nor do I consider his statement applicable to today.

What the hell? Do you even realize what you're saying? What you're saying is akin to saying that voting for a particular food is a waste because arsenic and cyanide are going to win.

Romney was never my candidate but my candidates either refused to run, shot themselves in the foot or were beaten by Romney in a fair fight.

Ah, so you're the sort who, if you were a girl, would swoon over a guy if he beat up a rival for your love?
So nice to know is that all it takes is "a fair fight" and not anything like character.

He will not be ideal (and we won’t even get into his religion) but compared to this Communist he is 100x better for our nation.

I disagree with you even there; he will be worse and here's how: Obama at least has a polarizing effect. With a Romney presidency lots of people will think "we did our job, we changed things! We put a republican in the White House" but sadly they are entirely mistaken; Romney will do NOTHING to reverse the policies that Obama has started. At best he will only slow the policies.

Elect an overwhelmingly GOP Congress with more conservatives and Romney will not be a problem.

The same can be said for Obama; that makes such statment of null value in arguing a vote for Romney.

Congress can say “no” to his goofy ideas as well as those of The Disaster.

Gee. They could say that to a President Obama, or a President Paul, or a President Gingrich. Again, this has null-value as an argument to vote for Romney.

Four more years of this and you can say goodbye to our future. That is not principled.

If it takes another 1776, then so be it. I will not vote for Romney.

It may be that he was often wrong; though I think not in this.
Far too many people are worried by "winnable" to actually strive. And that is a detriment to us all.
