Why is it, when a candidate abandons some of his base, the base is then blamed for abandoning him?

Why should I vote for someone who does not share one of my biggest core values?

Because we are just supposed to be good sheep and just keep pulling the "R" lever no matter how bad they get.

Because if you don't, you'll end up with someone who shares NONE of your values. If you only vote for candidates who you are in agreement with on 100% of the issues, you might as well burn your voter registration card now, because you will never use it again.
