I dealt with another freeper who used a very similar personal analogy. A better analogy is that there are 2 cars — one of them a dragster and the other a Ford Pinto. Both are faced towards the cliff. You’re invited into either car. The better choice is not to get into the car. To claim that the Pinto is slower to go over the cliff and you can reason with the driver on the way down is bogus.
But there is no way to not be in one of the two cars. There is no way to not have a president, and it seems that there is only going to be a possibility of 0kaka or Ryan/
Rombag. If there was someone else to vote for who could win, it would be a different tale. It's either or, not three choices. I wish it were not so, but the vile GOP is forcing this upon us. Write in someone? Won't win. It's either the Pinto, the dragster, or get thrown off the cliff anyway. There is no possibility of "hey, let's just have no president!". It's one or the other. I just realized the other day that this is why I will vote for Ryan/
Rombag. It buys us time.
I HAVE to vote 0kaka OUT.
If there was a revolt at the convention and someone else took Romney's place, there would be no one happier than me. (well, we'd all be happy.)
