Bingo...
Also, for Kent in Seattle, a vote for Romney in liberal Washington state means absolutely NOTHING. (He won't take Washington state)
So why all the hustle & bustle by the Romney-ites to push him in blue states that Romney can't win?
Even in the red states, all the FREEPERs could vote for Goode/Hoefling -- and Obama still can't touch Romney in those states.
The Romney-ites have been spreading their "huff and their puff and we'll blow the White House down" hubris too broadly...they should focus on the swing states -- and stop with the (sometimes) nastiness aimed at voters and potential voters that won't matter in the electoral vote scheme of things.
This has been explained to them over and over again on this thread, ad nauseum, ad infinitum.
It. Simply. Does. Not. PENETRATE. ;)

I don’t see Romney as much of an improvement over Obama. I don’t think either should be POTUS. I think people should vote third party to send a message that neighter are OK. I don’t care if it is a swing state, red state, or blue state. We all agree that Obama is a poor/dangerous POTUS and doesn’t deserve reelection. However, like Jim Robinson, I cannot support Romney as an alternative to Obama. I don’t want either. At least, by voting third party, it “may” (if enough will help) deny either man more than 40% of the vote. They cannot claim a mandate in that case.
The primary process is horribly flawed. There is no way Romney could have won if there was some form of runoff elections in the process. However, Romney ran a dirty campaign and spent more time attacking conservatives than he did Obama. Plus, he just plain bought the election with the backing of the GOP establishment. I cannot back such a system anymore. So, I will not vote for Romney. And I don’t think any real (full conservative - social, defense, & fiscal) should give him and the GOPe their backing.
