Yes! Just what we need!

A socialist as a President and a supermajority in the Senate because diehards sit out the election. There will be no viable third-party conservative candidate, at least one the will pull people out to vote.

Wake up, stop being selfish, and realize this is about our country and not your perfect candidate living in the White House. This isn’t directed at you solely; I feel like this is a message to many here. A socialist will win the White House if we sit this one out. Plus, to not vote? What a slap in the face to those who went to war to ensure your right to vote.

I resent being lectured to by people who don’t understand the true disdain conservatives feel for John McCain. He has screwed us over again and again and again. He is the reason that many of the great conservative laws passed by the House in the early 2000s would get stalled in the Senate.

You see we love our country and we really do love our party, but right now we just don’t feel like getting stabbed anymore by the ring leader of the betrayers.

It’s not that I’m a diehard. But as I am thinking this through, I am starting to think that these people do more harm than their obvious counterparts.

I voted for Crist. I didn’t like him, but I voted for him. He wouldn’t have been there to help defeat Romney if people like me hadn’t held their nose.

I probably will vote for McCain, if I have to, simply because of the supermajority. They could stack the court. They could open the borders totally. They could disarm us, outlaw homeschooling, anything. But I sometimes think that perhaps it’s best to let libs screw up, not libs pretending they are Republicans.

Like I said, remember Reagan. We are still suffering from the damage Carter caused in 4 short years, yes. But in 1980 Reagan blew in with almost 500 EV because people became really aware of the devastation caused by a liberal wimp of a president.

In other words, we have to settle for the lesser of two evils. No we don’t. I’m tired of McPain stabbing conservatives in the back, and then coming back groveling for our support. He turned his back on us way too many times, and I’m tired of giving this guy second chances.
