The reason is that just 12 years ago people on our side did not live in a bubble. That was the province of the Left. Today, too many on our side have crawled into their own bubble and believe that their personal reality is the end all, be all. They see anyone who disagrees over policy or tactics ever so slightly as traitors to the cause. A kind of Cultural Revolution type of thinking is bubbling up on our side of the aisle. If we follow this road it will lead us into irrelevancy. Me, I would rather keep moving the ball down the field, even if I have to compromise here and there. Being a permanent minority is for losers.And I agree with you and get really annoyed with some of these people who take such rigid positions and think we have to all agree with them.

I am compromising by supporting Newt, but Romney, no way.

And I...get really annoyed with some of these people who take such rigid positions and think we have to all agree with them. Yeah, those folks who so rigidly insist that we have to support Republicans, even when they're flaming leftists who have trashed every single foundational principle of the republic and who have breached their sacred oaths in the most heinous ways possible, really annoy me as well.
