“I will not be part of electing Romney as a Republican president. I will try to be part of preventing it.”

Facts of political life. You got three choices at this point.

Romney

McCain

Or go democrat.

Romney picking Fred Thompson or another conservative as VP could happen too. In fact it would be a sign that he is getting the message to some degree.

Life sucks.

You do the best with what you got sometimes.

Because handing over the white house without a fight to the party that back stabbed our troops on the battlefield is anathema to me as an American. At least with a half ass republican you stand a chance. With a democrat? Fuggetaboutit. And if B. Hussein wins? I fear the nation will get nuked. THAT is more important in my opinion than bickering over RINOs

What we "got" at this point prevents doing "the best" or anything close to it for this nation, our freedom, and our troops; indeed, it guarantees the worst for all concerned no matter who gets the most votes. I'm well aware of the facts of political life as only a Californian can be who regrets participating and endorsing the election of Arnold Schwarzenegger. Yes, I'd say that the facts of political life are something I am uniquely qualified to assess.

I agree with you that politics is pretty much always about selecting the lesser of two evils, and this election will be no different. Where we disagree is WHICH is the lesser of two evils. As I review the political realities before me, I am willing to gamble that Democrats pose the lesser of long-term evil. It's a calculated risk that I think you are afraid to even acknowledge, as I was once was myself.

When you say I've got three choices at this point, you're mistaken. I have FOUR choices. That the fourth one goes against your grain as much as it did mine Before Schwarzenegger, is yet another fact of poltical life.
