I've been on FR for a long time, and through several elections; this time, as usual, there are the "one-trackers" who vow to sit it out, or quit the party, or move overseas, or some thing or other if their guy/gal doesn't win/get nominated.
While that was a viable choice in the past - and I have declared it myself, but wound up voting for McCain anyway to keep obama out...didn't work.
There will never be another election as important as this coming presidential election.
It is my opinion that the chavez/castro wannbe that now occupies the Oval Office will attempt a major takeover if elected to another term.
As a lame duck he has nothing to lose by letting out all the stops and becoming "king" obama in a new socialist America.
So, I don't care if Larry the Cable Guy is the GOP nominee, I will support him to get rid of obama.
If there was ever an election to get rid of the guy you don't want, this is it.
I don't like Robot Romney, nor do I care much for whiny Ron Paul, but whichever one of the candidates that gets nominated will have my vote.
Those who are viewing this as "just another election", are not paying attention to what obama has done to America in just three, short years. Give him four more, and America will never emerge from the malaise.
He offers "freebies" the dependent class, but they are generally too stupid to know that whenever he gets his "regime" solidly entrenched, he'll cut off everyone.
obama is only for obama. He has the useful idiots in the unions, the blacks, and other far left groups salivating over promises to handouts and bailouts...but that will end as soon as HE NO LONGER NEEDS THEM.
So those who are narrow-minded or selfish enough to "stay home", or "quit the party", go ahead...but you will be a direct party to the demise of America by aiding and abetting the Criminal-in-Chief achieve his socialist/marxist goals.
He might even be hard to get rid of even if he loses the election, as he has developed such a divide in the nation along the lines of color, and social status, that we may never become fully "united" again.
What has happened to Cain is sad, but when you step out into public life, your life becomes public. I don't believe these women who have come forward, but it's hard to put the toothpaste back into the tube.
This coming election is not American Idol, or a football game, or any such even that will recur and give the loser another chance...if obama wins the election, I don't think we'll ever have another election in America.

Good post and I agree.
By the way, Rick Perry is, as far as I know, the only candidate who has publically vowed to support the nominee whoever it is.

Conservatives often accuse liberals of thinking with their emotions but too many conservatives do exactly the same thing.
They get emotionally invested and lose sight of the bigger picture.
