Sorry, but I disagree. Values voters will not vote the lesser of the two evils. They will stay home.
“Sorry, but I disagree. Values voters will not vote the lesser of the two evils. They will stay home.”
Then you don’t understand “values voters.” I need you to clarify “lesser of two evils.”
I’m a “moral/social” conservative. The person, in the primary, that will get my vote is the one that best represents my morale values. Currently, that would be Bachmann, Palin, or Santorum. I see no “lesser of two evils” amoung that group. Now, God forbid, if Romney gets the GOP nomination THEN I might, or the first time in my 57 years, not vote in the general election, or vote third party if one has a half-way decent candidate. IF you mean “lesser of two evils” to be Romney verse Obama. Then I agree that many values voters may well stay home.
However, I don’t see that in a primary. I know my own ilk well.
