Fair question. Since write-ins aren't allowed, the choices are (a) Romney, (b) Paul, or (c) don't vote.
I'll have to wait and see how the early primaries go. If Paul fades to single digits in the early primaries I'll vote for him, just to keep Romney from getting VA's delegates. If, however, Paul does well in the early primaries, I'll go with option (a) or (c).
I despise Paul, but would vote for him as a protest, only if he had zero chance of actually winning the nomination.
It’s a shame that you don’t get a choice of all the candidates.
Regardless of the blame, VA GOP or the candidates, it seems to me that the people of VA are being cheated. I don’t see why the GOP couldn’t go ahead and hold an emergency meeting to discuss lifting the rules for this election.
If I were a conservative in VA I would be really PO’d right now.
