Am I going to have to skip the 2012 election as well?

The only reason Romney even has a shot at getting the nomination is because the GOP still insists on having its first primaries in blue states that allow for Democrats to choose GOP candidates. Get the first contests out of Iowa and New Hampshire, and close them all to GOP members only and Romney and his ilk will not be as big a threat.

If Romney gets the nomination, my wife and I will vote third party in 2012, even if it means 0bama being re-elected. I refuse to vote for someone who supports in lockstep with every liberal policy position that comes down the pike.

Because the GOP’s principle function is to placate and control conservatives, not represent them. As an institution, it is a false front.

Iowa has a caucus system. It is held at the same time as the Democrat caucus so a voter cannot attend both. Sure anyone can come to the caucus but they must register as a Republican, even if for that brief period of time BUT how do you make sure only devout Republicans attend. The process is open to everyone.

Even during our primaries, when voter goes to the polls, they must choose one party only to receive the ballot.

How are you going to change it?
