I see it like this, if we conservative Pubs just keep on meekly and obediently voting for the RINOs who the country club Pubs like Christy Todd Whitman's multiple wealthy organizations back and push onto us in the primaries, backstabbing RINOs such as McNasty or socially liberal RINOs such as Julianne and Romney are the only kind of people we will ever have to vote for in future general elections. We may as well take a licking this time if that's what it will take to get a much better choice of candidates in the future who are both fiscally and socially conservative.
I still have to believe that a true conservative Republican will beat a far left liberal Democrat like Obama or Hillary in the Presidential race 9 times out of 10 if the Pub primary voters are given a clear choice and they choose that kind of nominee for the general election.
As for me I haven't decided yet whether to ignore everything I have said in this post and vote for McCain because either Democrat would be much worse for the nation, or to just vote for the minor party nominee who best represents my views and hope that a McCain loss will result in a conservative nominee next time who could possibly undo most, or at least some, of the worst damage that either Democrat will do to the nation if elected. Either way I decide to go will be painful and hard for me to swallow, and I need to do a lot of serious thinking before I decide.
