Sorry, but I won't ever vote for Slick Mitt. And I have a feeling many other freepers here won't either.
Oh really?
(1/28) If it’s Romney vs Hillary in the general, how do you vote?
Romney
80.0%
Third party
6.6%
Write-in
5.4%
No vote
3.3%
Undecided
2.6%
Hillary
2.0%
Seriously, folks--I want to know. A lot of freepers have been asserting that "they will never vote for candidate X," and X can equal every candidate still in the running. Suppose your very favorite candidate does not win the nomination. Does that mean, in the general, that you will
a) sit it out
b) vote third party
c) write in your favorite candidate's name
d) vote for the democrat
???
That's your big plan, is it? Did I miss an option?
Guess what, folks: A, b, and c all equal d.
I don't like any of the candidates. I don't even care for the man who I voted for in the recent Michigan primary. I will not be completely satisfied with anyone who wins the GOP nom. But I will go to my grave before I sit on my ass and do nothing--or waste my vote on a third party candidate or write-in, which as tantamount to doing nothing--and allow a dem to win the general.
So go ahead! Do nothing. Do me a favor, though, ALL of you who keep making these stupid threats: If you carry through with them, and we end up with four years of a democrat heading up the Executive, relinquish your FR account and start hanging out with your pals over at DU.
Sheesh
