I’ll probably vote for Virgil Goode and pray that plenty of other 3rd party and write in voters show up to save the downticket races from the Romney effect.

For POTUS, Virgil Goode of the Constitution Party

"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton

Where do we go from here? We go to the polls and we vote for Romney, then after he loses we send all of our savings and money to the Obama Government and they will send us what they think we need.

I absolutely agree with you that the key question is “Where do we go from here?”

Supporting Romney serves the goal of beating Obama, as others in this thread have noted. The trouble is that that’s a short-term goal. The longer-term effect of conservative support for Romney is to encourage, strengthen, and even entrench the RINOs.

Voting third party promotes the long-term goal of giving voters a conservative alternative, because it makes clear to Republican Party leadership that the path to victory is the Reaganite path.

Even if we’re stuck with Romney as the nominee in 2012, do you want to be stuck with him again in 2016?
