Star, your link did not tell us how JR voted, or verify the Wiki claim.

Wiki made a very specific claim, a detailed claim, “”However, just nine days before election day 2012, Robinson backtracked, admitting he was voting for Romney and a straight GOP ticket. [56]””

You have seemed totally clueless on this thread, you still don’t understand that I was looking for proof of how JR voted personally, since that was the SPECIFIC claim, not whether he had switched to telling other people that they should vote for the GOP candidate, for one thing, living in California, he could have been advising out of state freepers while personally not voting for Romney, since his California vote doesn’t count in presidential races.

You continue to confuse proving his switching to supporting the Romney/Ryan ticket, with having proved EXACTLY how he voted, my link cleared that up, your link didn’t clear it up at all.

I did read that you were looking for that ... but I wasn’t. If you go back and read my initial conversation with another person who said it didn’t matter, you’ll see that I said that if he gave me a citation from Jim Robinson that he didn’t change his mind and didn’t vote for Romney, that I would go to Wikipedia with that citation and change it from he did vote for Romney to he didn’t vote for Romney.

However, the citation that I received, which I posted right away, showed that Jim Robinson did change his mind and did vote for Romney. Since “that” is specifically what I had asked for, when I got it, it was proven right that he did indeed change his mind and vote for Romney.

As the conversation progressed along from there to other people jumping in on it, they went beyond that - to the date involved and the fact of voting straight party-line - which wasn’t me who wanted that, but others.

So, at that time (in the conversation) I said that someone else could look up that additional information - and as it turns out - you did exactly that and proved that the entire thing said on Wikipedia, about Jim Robinson’s voting, was true after all.

And I do thank you for clearing it all up and proving once and for all, that what Wikipedia said about Jim Robinson’s voting was entirely true, after all.

Closely akin to trying to teach a pig to sing...

I’ll say one other thing, too ... when I replied to you today (the first comment I made from overnight) ... I had seen your citation and I wanted to then go to Wikipedia to get it corrected. But, I was pleasantly surprised to find out that someone had already corrected it.

Now, what that means to me, is that someone who had been following this conversation was already signed up for editing on Wikipedia and they made the change already. That was really quick, I think.
