My first and second favorite candidates have dropped out. I have yet to decide among those remaining. I will do so, and it won’t be Mitt. Eventally, I will have to order from the menu, or let someone else do it for me.
No, thanks, I’ll do it myself.
In the Primary, I vote to select the person I want.
In the General, I vote to defeat the person I do not want.
Therefore:
Since the main mission of the General Election of 2012 is the defeat of Barry Soetoro, I will vote for the Republican Nominee.
Even if hs name is Dole McCainovich Squishy Rockefeller XVIII.
When we gather around the campfires among the decayed wreckage of our country, I will not be one of those who say “I could have voted against him, and chose not to.”
Finally: see tag.
I would love to see a conservative House, a more conservative Senate, and a conservative President. If I cannot have the conservative President I want, I will not throw a hissy-fit by throwing my vote to help re-elect Obama.
The Rep establishment may be in the bag for Romney, but so far only Iowa has had a say in that. Until people vote, nothing is inevitable.
