Tell me, as passionate as you are, how much of your wealth and time did you dedicate to moving a suitable candidate forward in the primary? You want to give lectures on purity, so let's here it. How pure were you? Or are you just feeling self-righteous?

Any purity or righteousness I may have, was a gift of grace from my Lord and Savior.

With regards to my time and money and wealth, I have been employed for 6 of the last 8 months and barely keeping my head above water before that.

Furthermore, none of this is your business and has nothing to do with holding the line where Christian, Conservative principles are concerned.

You've got a whole bushel of Red Herrings there buddy!

That should have read:

With regards to my time and money and wealth, I have been un-employed for 6 of the last 8 months and barely keeping my head above water before that.

I presented no red herrings. You are acting like there are better options than the two on the table and there aren’t. Romney or Obama are going to be president. Its that simple.

Your point is that Romney isn’t supportable, because he doesn’t hit all your wickets, especially religious wickets.

Fine, I had much the same view during the primaries, although I don’t find his Mormonism a big issue within the confines of the Constitution. I supported a different candidate (who also didn’t hit all my wickets) during the primaries. In fact, Romney was my last choice. None of the candidates were conservative enough for me, but I chose the one that I thought was best and backed them. They lost.

Now we are in a totally different election, with a different set of options.

Is there any situation in which Obama is a better choice than Romney? No. Is voting for a 3rd candidate going to move the GOP to the right at this point? No.

Other than sour grapes, what are you trying to achieve?
