You’re arguing with a Moby trying to sew dissent.
Every thinking conservative understands the time to express their views is during the primaries.
Once a candidate is selected we have to face the reality of a two party system and vote for the candidate closest to our side.
Anyone -- and I mean anyone, Dem or Republican -- who reviewed Romney's record without knowing his political party affiliation, would identify him as a liberal Democrat. That is a painful but obvious TRUTH.
For the first time in 35-plus years of voting straight Republican ticket, I am seeing a Presidential election where that candidate "closest to our side" has failed to materialize under the Republican designation. Yet I have a duty to vote. I will be voting third party because the two-party system has this time FAILED to serve the interests of American freedom, and my third-party vote can help put the next president, a guaranteed anti-conservative, on defense and give conservatives in Congress an advantage.
