I’m not so sure about that, wolfpat. I’m one of those real conservatives who initially didn’t plan to vote for Mittens..and i caved.
I know others who did same. Maybe a small percentage stayed home but I think most of us came to realize that a vote for Rom was a vote against Bam and that made it easier.
I rationalized a Romney vote too. I saw a sign in his mention of the Tenth Amendment during the debate.
But I also know a fair number of black people. Some of them didn’t vote in 2008 but did vote this time. I tried to explain their error, but they didn’t see logic.
I also know a lot of people who did what I said I’d do: vote for Johnson. I can’t blame them.
I blame the RNC elites who helped destroy the Cain campaign, and then shoved Romney down our throats.
Hi, FRiend. I’m still in shock. How about you? I was predicting a RR landslide. Seriously.

-— Exactly, I’ve read hundreds of posts that stated just that. However, only one person has reported they voted for McCain but not Romney. That is what they want us to believe though. There were throngs of people that voted for McCain but thought less of Romney. I believe a lot of people stayed home but I don’t believe enough stayed home that turned out for McCain to lose OH. Especially since only OH and PA showed lower turnout for Romney amongst the comparable states in the area and the other battlegrounds. Something happened to those votes.
I vowed I wouldn’t but the day of the election I caved, too.
