Norm, EV is a rock-solid Conservative. Some of us still do exist, and we’re not going to drink the Kool-Aid when the cost is our souls.

I seriously doubt anyone's soul is in danger because they voted for Mitt Romney. I didn't vote for Mitt Romney, regardless. Heck, I was mad enough at him at one point in the campaign because he was beating my guy - and I would offer up every fault and excuse to justify it (many true and some perceived). But it's over. (For me.) For others, no.

There is no perfect candidate. Picking McCain over Obama is not drinking the koolaid. Allowing Obama to walk to the presidency unhindered because of what in reality amounts to small beans or even a moderately decent hill of beans however may well be drinking it.

I happen to be a rock solid conservative. I just also happen to realize I will have no effect over policy by handing the keys over to the other side. (And simply hoping to take back congress SOMETIME in the foggy future isn't good enough for me.)
