“You obviously have conservatives confused with Republicans. Lately that is not the same thing.”
I’m a Federalist, not a conservative. I vote Republican because one of only two candidates in the general election is going to win. I don’t give a rip what you call yourself, if you vote other than the Repub, you are re-electing Obama.
And if the Republican party nominates Obama-lite the fault is theirs. Better a bitter enemy to oppose than one from within.
