By sitting out the election because your guy isn't the nominee, or even worse, by voting third party, you're showing that you don't really care if your values are upheld, you just want to punish the Republican party for not choosing someone YOU want.
Absolutely
I hope to he*l you Freepers out there that "taught the republicans a lesson" last election smarten up a bit this time. Thanks in large part to you, we have Reid, Pelosi and gang running amok over our country.
If you sit out the vote - you ARE voting. Your one vote less on our side will count for one vote more for the dimRats...the vote YOU gave them.
It seems to me that the sit-out voters who get their knickers in a twist if everything isn't 100% their way are demonstrating a colossal = and misplaced - sense of their individual importance.

I hope like hell you FReepers out there that continue to accuse conservatives of losing the election for you will smarten up a bit this time.
Your railing against us will do you no good. You need only to support a true conservative who will stand for conservative principles, and has a record to prove it. Then, and only then, you will receive the support of the base that you so fervently desire.
The conservative wing, re-branded "social conservatives" in a vain attempt to allow RINOS the luxury of inclusion, out numbers the Rockefeller wing by a factor of two to one. In the light of that, why is it the conservatives that are always asked to compromise their principles?
