Simply because we can fight Romney more effectively, he can’t play the race card on us!
It makes no sense to elect someone you have to fight to get them to do what they swear to do when they enter office. Effectively you are saying republicans should elect someone who doesn’t share their values and will have to be forced. And how do you make sure you get enough non participating citizens to become active and do that? We can’t even counter anything Obama has done, let alone the current crop of RINOS in office. Experience does not support your argument.
What a messed up country we live in, if you believe this is the only path for America.
