In my small but reliable poll 66% my overwhelmingly conservative readers said they were voting AGAINST Barack Obama and just 24% said they were voting FOR Mitt Romney! The large national polls won’t ask this question but that doesn’t alter the truth.

According to this small but reliable poll, then, 66% of conservative readers would vote for Hillary Clinton simply because she is "anything but Obama". I'm not buying it. People can only squint so much. The actions of Mitt Romney go well beyond my ability to squint. Bush is far more conservative than McCain; McCain is far more conservative than Romney. Bush gave us Justice Roberts ... how far down the slippery slope are people willing to go before this "purity" argument grows tired?

Romney is as disgusting to me as just about anything I can imagine. I hate the R leadership and “pro-life” groups that handed him to us on a stick. He has laid the way for sharia in MA and has no concept of Constitutional governance. If he is elected and doesn’t have a good sound conservative Congress to force his hand, he will be a cancer that kills this country

I don’t think we have the luxury of thinking about cancer right now, though - because as it is we have had both arms and both legs blown to bits and will totally bleed out and die within the next year if not sooner, if we do not apply a tourniquet.

At this point even a tourniquet covered in turd would be better than nothing. The best we can do is use (elect) the turd-covered tourniquet and at the same time apply massive amounts of antibiotic in the form of a conservative veto-proof Congress, to keep the turd on the tourniquet from infecting us to death. If we could somehow miraculously come up with a tourniquet that wasn’t covered in turd, the choice would be easy. But if we are only given the choice of bleeding out immediately or using a gross tourniquet, the tourniquet would at least buy us some time to try to recover. The alternative is a decision to commit suicide.

Ok, that’s nice.

Now give me a candidate that has a snowballs chance of beating Obama and I’ll vote for them.

Other than that, you are just blowing the same smoke out your rear as the rest of the “I hate Mitt” FR whiners.

You blew it during the primaries by trying to be cute with ditching candidates, now you all want to be some sort of power brokers?

If "conservatives" why wouldn't they vote for Hillary if she claimed to be a Republican and took the right positions on the issues?

Romney has a more liberal than Bill Clinton does.

Never underestimate the stupidity of those that buy into the lesser of two evils strategy.
