Then you really, REALLY needed to put that little bit of extra effort into securing my vote, didn't you?

I voted for Gingrich.

Although, when I reviewed the election returns the next day, it was clear I should have voted for Dr. Paul. That's because the good doctor (albeit a bit short of a byte on foreign policy) came a lot closer to the 15% threshold in Massachusetts which would have subtracted delegates from Mittens than Newt, who only got 4.6%.

Now that's all water under the bridge. Now, we have to drag Mittens across the finish line and make sure there are sufficient congresscritters in place to ensure he etches the right sketch in 2013. We know he's good at etching — that's why he has a nine-digit net worthh — but he's not so good a picking the right sketch. That's why Congress is especially important this time around.

But neither Congress nor the White House will be forthcoming if the electorate next November is full of Kents trapped in Seattle!

If I have anything to say about it, Cruz will be in the Senate.

Still won't vote for your home-town boy, though.

Precisely the reason you're supposed to expend enough genuine effort to secure our sympathies (and our votes) well beforehand, rather than sniveling and tantruming about if afterwards.

This all just seems so terribly, awfully... complicated for you, somehow.

I sincerely don't know how to remedy that for you.
