oh you came up with a clever lil line - how cute! It will make an awesome bumper sticker for obama’s 2nd term. At least for the first 6 months when you can afford gas.
Next to Ron Paul, Mittens was my last choice. He isn’t the ideal Conservative candidate but I don’t think he will even come close to causing the damage Zero has. As I learned in my EMT days, the first thing you do is save the victim’s life. Unfortunately, this is where we are as a country. If we continue on our current path as a nation, we are dead. We need to get the country out of “Critical Condition” before we can worry about restoring quality of life. Sitting this election out or voting 3rd Party is a non-starter.
I cut to the bone. Which pro-abortion, anti-gun, big government candidate are you pushing?
Because I won't vote for anyone like that.
You are avoiding the question.

How come you didn’t answer his question?
Probably because it isn’t a question.
I know my answer to it.
Yep, the fallout is gonna suck sissors. Such is life.
I don't have to enjoy anything. I do have to do what is right.

As long as the two-party leftist big gubmint cabal puts up Zero and Willard, I will vote for Goode over evil.
Virgil detests Obama. And he doesn't like RINOs like George Allen. I understand why some Reps will be unhappy with him running, but Virgil is his own man. I won't be voting for him because I want VA to go to Romney in order to defeat Obama, but many VA conservatives will vote for Goode.
Virgil Goode Ping!
That person would still be far less of a fool than the idiots who vote for twin socialists and gay agenda advocates Obonghit or Romneycare.
Ah, so if a candidate is put forward that isn't Democratic or Republican they're pretend?
...hm, I wonder if the Democratic-Republican party and Whig party said the same thing.
The Republican party is so underwhelming in pursuing its stated platform planks that I'm surprised they're at all in any power.
Abortion -- aside from banning partial-birth abortions, where the child is murdered literally as it's being born, what strides towards ending abortion has the Republican-party made?
Fiscal responsibility -- what have they done to encourage this? Especially since congress is required by law (Congressional Budget Act) to pass a budget.
Government Accountability -- How long has it taken to get anything, anything done with respect to Fast & Furious? Ah, well, I mean F&F wasn't that big a deal, only: 1. violating domestic laws; 2. violating treaties; 3. an unauthorized act of war; 4. state sponsored terrorism; 5. treason*.
(* All that would be needed to convict the F&F players of treason is to show that the drug cartels are enemies of the several states; F&F was providing both arms [aid] and legal protections [comfort] to the cartels.)
Smaller government -- When was the last time a government agency was cut? (This does not include simply rolling the employees up into another agency.)
Yeah; unless the GOP starts to actually do what it says then I see no reason to aid its existence by voting for its candidates.
And people who vote for either will properly be chastised for suporting homosexuality, abortion, and socialism.
Get used to it.
Very, very used to it.
Because if you vote for either of them that consequence will be with you for a very long time.
Unless, of course you vote quietly and secretely and nobody ever knows.
“Probably because it isn’t a question.”
Really? It sure looks like a question to me. It has the form of a question. In fact it’s not an especially difficult question: it requires an answer from a set containing only two members.
Supposed to be a cease fire, or something.
One way kind of street, mind you...

There must be many stupid conservatives in VA. No matter how you slice it, simple logic dictates that a vote for Goode is a vote for Obama.
nice that you finally admit there are only two candidates - that’s a step in the right direction
It remains to be seen who Romney nominates as VP, but if he isn't a conservative, more people will vote for Goode who is the real thing.
Set A. Those candidates that support abortion, are anti-gun and for big government.
Set B. Those candidates that are against killing babies, believe in allowing humans to have firearms, and want to reduce government.
Howzabout those sets?

The Democratic-Republican Party(Jefferson, Madison, Monroe) and the Whig Party (Clay, Harrison, Webster) were one of the two major parties of their time. D-R party was paired with the Federalists, and for a time was the only party during Monroe and JQ Adams. The Whigs were the opposition to the Jacksonian Democrats. Your examples were not third parties, they were the major ones. A better example you should have chosen was the Know Nothing Party. Even they had way more support then today’s fringe third parties.
