So you’d rather have Harry Reid continue to control the Senate (and set national agenda-especially with Obama as President for the next 2 years) than to work with someone like Susan Collins?

My politics are driven by my principles, not the other way around.

Being a Christian, it is my duty, and my desire, to live my life according to the precepts and principles laid out by my Savior and Heavenly Father.

As a Christian, I cannot be a pragmatist on issues that God has issued commands on, namely Homosexuality and Abortion explicitly, other conservative issue positions, like being against Socialized Medicine and Amnesty are implied by Christian principles.

My vote choices have to be driven by this approach or I can no longer call myself a Christian (Christ-Like).

This means if someone is supporting Abortion and/or the Gay Agenda, I can under no circumstances vote for that person. In that scenario, I have other options that will not displease my Heavenly Father. There are third-party candidates whose policy positions do not violate my Christian conservative principles.

For example, if I lived in Maine, and Susan Collins was up for election this year, I could not vote for her because of her ungodly positions on these issues. I would have to vote for a third-party candidate.

If that means that the Senate stays in the Democrat's hands, so be it, I've kept my honor and my relationship with my Heavenly Father intact.

It's up to the GOP to put up candidates that will represent me, not the other way around, I'm not obligated to vote GOP, just because they are Republican.

I don't compromise my principles just because someone has an 'R' next their name.

If I did, they'd be more like mere suggestions rather than principles.
