Politics is the game of compromise. You work hard to get the best, which is usually the lessor of two evils. McCain was not even on my dance card, but he'd be an improvement over Obama, however slight.
The goal is a ticket that can win. As much bad as Bush did he was better than a liberal. Not the perfect conservative candidate, but judging from the comments not too many here will ever find a perfect candidate. You either win or you stay in the minority where all your good ideas count for naught. Get it?
I’d prefer no evil. I’m not ready to compromise at this stage of the game, as that’s just giving in. The liberals won with a hardcore socialist.
I get it, apparent;ly you lack principles to get it. The way you play the game, you either lose with your ‘winner” or lose like we did in 2008 by having two barely distinguishable candidates.
i see no point in giving in, especially 3 years out.
