You will be responsible for the Democrats taking over power. You had better come up with a new argument. That one will not work this year. How about Republicans listening to the people, who are not Republicans, who helped put them there. If ya'll lose it will be of you own making.
I am a conservative independent who has voted Republican out of choice, scare tactic politics will turn me off faster than anything.
Somewhere you got it in your mind that we had to vote Republican.

I love the "YOU WILL BE BLAMED IF REPUBLICANS LOSE!" mantra.
Many here on FR make the same accusation.
I'm sorry, but I won't be manipulated. My vote is the last real power I have besides voicing my opinions on FR and to my Senators and Congressman.
I will never vote for a 'Rat, but never again will I contribute to the problems in the Republican party by voting 'for' a "Republican" just to vote 'against' a 'Rat. Only 'Rats have to act out of desperation and political hatred. We don't.

I will answer you:
Because if liberals get back in, the assumption will be that the current group of Republicans was TOO Conservative, not TOO Liberal.
That is the crux of the matter.
Also, on a side issuea stunning percentage of the current bureaucracy is at war with this administration and the GOP leadership. Loosing the upper hand will turn all of it over to the Liberals for years to come and solidify these faceless power elites in their positions. These are the people with huge power in Washington. Because you can not just fire civil servants, we have to wait for attrition or misbehavior. If we loose now, as this is going on, we will have to clean house again all over...which takes time and effort, not to mention momentum.
The President is doing some significant house cleaning and may even manage to change the tone in Washingtonjust not in the way we expected. If we can hold on and win a more battles with our opposition...we are going to see both a different country and a significantly different world in about 10 years.

If you think the GOP is bad on illegals - just wait til the DNC takes power - the floodgates will open even wider and they'll be giving the illegals all kinds of taxpayer funded benefits (that they don't get now).
If you honestly think that this problem will get better by voting out all the Republicans - you are sadly mistaken.
