Well, conversely...if you live in a State your guy can’t win, isn’t it a tad more pragmatic, to let your side know there are votes out there they still need to pursue, and those votes are off to the Right?

I don’t see the left going after the Paultard vote....

And the other difference is, I would actively donate to, and push for Romney.

Most of the liberaltarians, would be campaigning against him. Which is not an exercise of pragmatism, it’s an act of fratricide.

I’d save making my point for that single second it takes to pull the lever.
