I’ll say one thing. My 25-year-old, lifetime habit of automatic, unwavering votes for the GOP candidate is no longer in effect. Between open-border Republicans and gay-marriage Republicans, I’m going to require 100% solidity on these issues. A GOP candidate that does not forcefully reject gay-marriage and vow to vote on a Constitutional Amendment to prevent it, will NOT get my vote, even if they are ostensibly conservative on all other issues. That is an absolute promise. That goes for all levels of office.
I'm 50. I voted for Bob Dole. I voted for every Bush that came along. I voted for McCain. Look where it's got me. The idea that people like me, who may possibly "stay home" are somehow delivering this country to the Left is just laughable. The GOP is delivering the country to the Left. And I'm no longer helping that process.
