Nobody is staying home in 2012, I can assure you. Lots of people going to be venting, even if they have to walk five miles in five feet of snow to do it.
Wishful thinking will not get them to the polls. I can attest to that from a recent mayoral election in Jacksonville. Only 36% of the registered voters in a conservative area showed up with a tea party endorsed true conservative pitted against a Dem with no experience and accounting troubles with the NGA’s he headed. The Dem won.
I submit that the voters are tired of the whole mess in that no matter if they show up or not, we have the same big government types who end up winning in that they will just not trust anyone in politics any longer. That is the true hurdle we have to clear to get them to the polls.
The Establishment Republicans globbing onto Mitt for Brains will do nothing but fortify that pervasive attitude of the general public.
And many may be voting for someone other than the major party candidates,
Yes...I will stay home rather than Vote for Myth.
Dont doubt it for a second.
