The sheer hypocrisy being expressed by the faux Conservative, party-first sheep on this thread is breathtaking.
I am not so sure that it is party first as much as reality first. I don’t much care for Myth Romney as a candidate, he sure as hell isn’t a conservative; but right now the realistic choices are between Myth and the Obunghole. I know which way I have to go.
In my perfect world the Tea Party would have organized just enough at the national level (keeping the independence at the local level) to advance a national candidate we could all agree upon and vote for in good conscience. A candidate that was chosen for conservative values, like a Reagan or perhaps a Palin, at least some body who held our same values even if we didn’t agree in all respects.
Explain to me the third party candidate that has a chance. Many on this forum, including myself, were supporting another candidate in the primary. The fact that many do not find those elections very important we are stuck with who we get.
I can’t speak for everyone that you refer to but I can tell you many are willing to take their chances on Romney to get rid of Obama.
I remember many of the same comments being made about Ronald Reagan trying to convince people they should vote for a guy named Anderson.
