i’ll sit out the vote for President if that bastard runs!

The RINOs don't believe you. Half of FR said that about McCain and Romney, yet most of us shrugged our shoulders, shilled out campaign donations and knocked doors in the end...

Conservatives are all talk and no action.

Yeah.

I have posted many times: voting for the same will not produce a different result.

Conservatives have had that problem since early in this century. They keep voting for the same ‘R’ guys, and then complain that the ‘R’ guys keep moving leftward in Congress.

Most of the ‘R’ guys in Washington would rather maintain the status quo than have conservatives/Tea Party factions upset their money troughs.

Apples and oranges. McCain and Romney were different. Patriots voted for them to try and save America.

Since that time we have learned that the GOPe has openly set their faces against Tea Party patriots. Further, many, myself included, no longer feel any sense of national obligation to hold our nose and vote for someone simply because they're on the Republican ticket. That ship has sailed. Many Republicans stayed home in 2012 rather than vote for Romney. Man, many more will stay home in 2016 if the GOPe shafts us with their hand-picked boy is on the ballot, whoever that may be.

Yes, many of us said, “Okay, one more time. After all, Romney is a better choice than Obamugabe.” But I do not see that happening again.

It really does not matter, anyway, in the long run. I am a boomer, and really do not expect to see another non-rigged presidential election in my lifetime.
