I don't know anyone who claims that ONLY they have principles, but those who ridicule the Religious Right for adhering to their moral and religious principles are making a serious mistake. Sometimes no candidate will be acceptable, and there is nothing wrong with that. I refuse to vote for someone that violates my standards of morals or religious views. That is my right as an American, the same as the right to oppose that viewpoint.
But your post in #5 says if I think different than “you” I am unprincipled!
