If you're speeding toward a cliff at 100 miles per hour, does it really matter if you slow to 95 miles per hour? You're still going to launch yourself into the abyss.

I am a cashier and I deal with hundreds of people a day, and I am repeatedly asked by people who see others being rude to me “how can you take that and stay calm”? I say “I don’t let them steal my soul”. To be rude in return is letting evil win. I smile and tell them to have a nice day. It makes them more angry.

For me to vote for Romney would be letting a political choice steal my soul. I am anti-abortion, anti-Romney/Obamacare, anti-mormonism and anti-gay marriage. I do not want to compromise my soul for Romney who believes in all I am against. He is not a conservative, he is a liberal republican elitist cutthroat.

There is a division of church and state. Either you follow Gods law or you follow civil law. If you follow Gods law there would be no need for civil law because there would be no crimes committed. I choose to follow Gods law. I will not vote for Romney...period.

GO NEWT!

Romney doesn't have the nomination yet, BUT if he does get it you had better vote for him and for every republican senator and congressman running for office. Right now Republican is all we have and we can force Romney, as we did bush on some issues, to go to the right. We will never be able to force Bozo to do anything but try and ruin the country.

Get a frickin' brain. I don't want Romney either but better him than another term for Bozo.

Who do we vote for? Conservatives for Congress and Senate, and any consevative write in or third party candidate. If you’re not consistently voting for conservatives you’re part of the problem. As long as the GOP thinks conservatives won’t leave, conservatives will be an abused wife.

Anyone who supports Romney, ESPECIALLY at this point in the game when he's not even the nominee yet, FAILS at conservatism.

You've gone wobbly on us.

You are compromised.

You've let your fear of Obama cause you to betray your values, principles and integrity.

You are cowardly hypocrites trying to drag the rest of us down your path of faithlessness.

It takes courage to stand your ground in the face of adversity, against the odds, against overwhelming naysaying of sheeplike herd mentality.

Be encouraged or GTFO, you are stinking up the place with your fail.

It matters who has the House & Senate. Romney is malleable, like Clinton. Obama is a rigid, demagogic ideologue.

Those proffering the notion there is no daylight between them are practicing the worst kind of deception.

You don't have to like Romney to acknowledge this simple truth.

The Priest has to explain further about Obama & Romney.

As to the Sin of Abortion, how culpable will we be if we vote for Romney. THIS QUESTION HAS TO BE ANSWERED BY A PRIEST. = It's his job.

Material Cooperation:
1. a greater likelihood that the SIN would not be committed without the ACT of >material cooperation.

Abortion has been defined as a ‘Constitutional Right’ in the USA. The USA kills babies with a Judicial-mandate & the very vocal & material support of the Ruling-Class. No longer can Abortion be outlawed through ordinary democratic processes.

2. Does a refusal to vote for either Obama or Romney change the “right” to Abort babies in the USA?

Are there enough differences in other areas that will promote the ‘common good’ of the people? & Will one candidate wishing to get re-elected be willing to support Judges & laws that protect babies in the womb?

Only one candidate if elected has the opportunity to run as President in 2016. Can we as conscientious voters, vote for Romney & hopefully get pro-life laws passed & pro-life Judges appointed?

Obama by his appointments, statements & actions is pro-DEATH.

Plus other issues:
The USA is going to suffer an economic collapse. It is arithmetic certain. The USA is spending 40% more money than it receives. There are NO tax programs that can cover the deficit. There is not enough money - period. The only hope of maintaining our Society is to cut spending - period.
Obama by actions&statements is intent on destroying the USA as we know it. If the USA is destroyed by Obama&supporters, will the USA be a more >Godly place in terms of Catholic teaching?

We are Obligated by God to participate in the democratic process. This election is going to require prayerful decisions.

3. If we refuse to vote & Obama is re-elected, how culpable will we be on Judgment Day?

There are some very intelligent people on FreeRepublic that have decided Romney is a ‘snake-in-the-grass’ like Obama. = It is better in 2012 to NOT vote for a President but to expend ALL time & resources for candidates at the state & local level.

Best or Good or Bad or Worse = our choices in life. We know from Obama’s record & expressed plans that Obama is the worse choice possible. = It is the end of the USA as we know it. Maybe, Romney is NOT >completely like Obama.

The question for a Priest is about 1. material cooperation? & 2. are there enough differences in other areas? 3. We are >Obligated to work towards a Godly society. = We ALL stand before Jesus Christ on Judgment Day.

[Marguerite]

I vote for neither.

NEWT GINGRICH is my candidate, all the way to Tampa!
(1150 delegates haven’t been allocated yet, 20 states haven’t voted yet).

I'll vote for Newt if he's on the NY primary ballot.

But whatever name in on the ballot in November, I'm voting against Obama.
