You’re right. We shouldn’t let this party get away with shoving liberals down our throats. And it is precisely because I don’t want our party to be hurt that I will do everything I can to keep McCain out of the White House. You ask how many more election cycles this party will last going forward. So lets be practical. Everybody else is out. Paul is out for all intents and purposes. Huckabee can’t last and is liberal. Fred, Duncan, Rudy and Tom are out. The actual choices now are Romney and McCain.
You hate Romney. I can deal with that. What I cannot deal with is McCain. So you can tell us all about violating our consciences and so on, but beyond a certain point (which has long since passed), you’re starting to seem like a McCain supporter. I dare say that a lot of people who were going to vote Romney with 0 enthusiasm will now do it with a load of enthusiasm precisely because of your hate and vitriol.
Thank you for energizing the Free Republic base.
Carry on.
I know he energizes me.
To vote for whom he hate the most. Just to spite him and cancel his vote.
Then they are liberal lemmings willingly jumping off a cliff. I’m sorry if the truth bothers folks. Standing by and not warning folks they’re being had means that I’m aiding and abetting the crime. McCain and Romney are non-choices for Conservatives.
