How do you ever, ever get a candidate that is unbad enough to not be a “devil” in this formulation?
I’ve never seen that defined in the context of the argument. All we have available in the political contests of this fallen world, and all that God sees, is sinners pitted against other sinners.

By that reckoning then, voting for the lesser evil is somehow righteousness in God's eyes?
That we're all sinners is fact. But making a choice for leadership is actually outlined in scripture in terms of what kind of person is FIT for an office.
We have no business voting for people who promote, espouse, support and act in favor of those things which are anathema God, to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
But we have arrived at the point where we do, and we are told that voting for this evil is better than the worser evil.
And the slide to oblivion simply accelerates.
And that is what the 'vote Romney' crowd is encouraging, out of fear of Obama, not even considering the fact that this whole election was an orchestration and we're all being played.
We lost already.
And like a dead man walking, we don't even realize it yet.
