You are looking for someone to place the blame upon. I have been a part of the Conservative political movement for forty years. I did what I could when I could to further Conservative political beliefs. The fact that the organization I once belonged to is now ridden with a cancerous internal disease is NOT of my doing. That is what I continually fought against.

If Obama becomes President the blame is much wider and much higher up the tree than I have ever been. The fact that the Republican Party leaders have chosen to default on their Oath of Office is not of my doing. Should you be looking in the mirror?

Suit yourself.

It’s not a question of blame, it’s a question of responsibility.

You, as a voter, have available to you a political act that you can decide to use as a VOTE or as a PROTEST.

Proceed accordingly, that’s all.

I see. Some do get discouraged and quit when they feel that the election of the President of the United States is above their paygrade as a citizen.

My condolences on being victimized by history.

Well. Even if we are all doomed and victims of Them, I'm still going to use my vote as a vote, not a protest, and try to stop what I see as a great threat to the nation.

The fact that the choice put to me is not of my own making is immaterial to the fact that I still can (and, in my view, am responsible) for making that choice.

But that's just my take on it.
