Show me one single post, steelwheels, ONE SINGLE POST, ONE SINGLE WORD, that says or even implies that we are insisting on a "perfect candidate."
Steelwheels, you have to engage in falsehoods in order to support your argument. That's a bad sign right there.
Just look at any of the threads during the last Republican Primary....per this very site there was a concentrated effort to find the perfect candidate. No one was good enough. How many times was it said that I will just stay home. They did, welcome obama.
Once again: You've talked until you're blue about what you're voting against. What are you voting FOR?
Purists and circular firing squads are imaginary. People who call others "purists" and of being part of "circular firing squads" are real.
Voting "against" is imaginary. Voting for is real. It is FUNCTIONAL.
