Don't kid yourself. By not voting, you're doing just that.
Sorry, I dislike Romney (and the GOP elite) every bit as much as you, but this grab-your-marbles-and-stomp-away stuff has got to stop. This country can't survive four more years of Obama. First defeat Obama, THEN deal with the GOP establishment (not to mention the idiot voters who keep electing them).
Cinnamontea recites the familiar old line: Don't kid yourself. By not voting, you're doing just that.

How many times will it take for you keep trying the same thing over and over and over with the same negative results, dear Cinnamon, before you figure out that a new approach MUST be used?
I admit it took me plenty of times. Decades, in fact, of voting just exactly as you prescribe above.
Two things I respectfully ask you to understand:
1. This is not a game, and our votes are not marbles we refuse to lend to the game because we're feeling huffy. In fact, FReeper FRiend, it's kind of insulting for you to insinuate that greyfoxx39 and I and lots of others here, would risk our nation's future out of mere pettiness. Pettiness and "stomping off in a huff" is only how you perceive it.
The reality is quite different. We can send money to candidates and opinionate to spread the word and educate people, but when it comes right down to it, each of us has only ONE real tool to sway the election: our vote. THAT'S IT. Vote to make liberalism win, liberalism sets the course for the party. If you seek to eliminate liberalism and a liberal course in the party, the ONLY tool you have to make that come to pass is to withhold your vote from the liberal candidate. There is no "huffiness" or "teaching a lesson" involved. It's a transaction: a vote in exchange for a service. It's not personal. It's business.
2. Mitt Rommney has proven that he believes proper use of government is to endorse and encourage the embrace and even self-declaration of open homosexuality among schoolchildren. Understand that this organization extends its "outreach" to middle schools, and that kids too young to even drive, within their schools, were encouraged by Romney to participate. Anyone who leads innocent children astray and encourage them to embrace acceptance of a sexual perversion proscribed in the Bible, is depraved. If you or ANY OF US vote for such a politician, regardless of our rationale, we will get the evil, craven wickedness that we vote for.
Don't kid yourself, Cinnamontea. Between Romney and Obama, the idea that one of them is the "lesser evil" is wishful thinking.
If you vote FOR Romney, no matter HOW you rationalize it, you will be voting FOR craven depravity. PERIOD. This is not a game of marbles. It is REAL LIFE with REAL CONSEQUENCES, and frankly, our chances of fighting a run-of-the-mill Marxist Democrat are much better; voting FOR evil and pretending that it will serve decency, will assure our destruction as a people much more decidedly than another four years of Obama could ever do.
This country can’t survive four more years of Obama. First defeat Obama, THEN deal with the GOP establishment

Please consider this: for the last four years we have talked of Romney as being Obama lite. As I find out more about Romney, I am getting a very bad feeling that we have had it backwards. Obama is Romney lite. Romney will not be getting my vote! In this match up Obama is the lesser of two evils!
