fr_freak, you’ve been on FR nearly as long as I have, so you will most certainly recall that last year there was a significant cohort of FReepers who were adamant about not voting for Romney, with the view of being in a better position to get a real conservative in 2016. You are reading way to much into cherry’s post to suggest that cherry is blaming Obama’s victory *solely* on the FReepers who voted ABR. You are quite correct in pointing out that 65.9 million brain-dead Obama voters share the blame as well.

Actually, I don't think I am. I'm sick of seeing people on this site crying about how there were Freepers who didn't want to vote for Romney. Romney sucked. He would have been a little better than Obama, but that's not saying much. Each man and woman has one vote (supposedly), so being forced to vote for a guy who has promoted everything conservatives despise (gay marriage, socialized healthcare, big government, etc.) just because the other guy was even worse is not anything even close to how this (former) republic was designed. Add in all the voter fraud, and it is beyond ridiculous to keep crying about Freepers not voting for Romney. The only purpose it serves is to bitch and whine and stir up division.

If everyone voted their conscience for the last 100 years, we never would have goofballs like Romney even in the running for what was supposed to be the conservative party. It is the perpetual compromise that really screwed us to begin with. Deal with that.
