That's fallacious and you know it. The more apt analogy is people in your camp, wearing your uniform, willfully commit an act of mass fratricide and then beg not to be put to death they promise this time they'll shoot at the enemy and not you — do you really want to keep them in your camp?

So, how does letting an Obama have a second term, or opening the door for a Hillary follow-on make things better? That's the truly fallacious argument when it comes to keeping the available Republicans out 'to make a point".

Who said it would?
The point isn't oh the Dems! the Dems!, the point is the guy at your back, or more specifically his knife.

Why should I vote for Republicans who refuse to advance my goals?
IOW — If they fold on amnesty, what good are they? (Yes, they haven't, yet, but they've signaled that they will.)
IOW — If they fold on prosecuting the IRS, what good are they?
IOW — If they fold on prosecuting the NSA, what good are they?
IOW — If they fold on financial responsibility, what good are they?
IOW — If they fold on promoting justice, what good are they?

The past six years has shown us that they'll fold on all of the above, and more; do I hope the new guys won't fold? yes — am I going to hold my breath in the hope that they won't? Nope.

DC's proven to be a force for corruption, the positions of power there seduce people into becoming part of that very corruption — it would be stupid not to acknowledge this.
