If the only other ballot choice is to vote for a dem and increase the count in Harry Reid’s favor, what can you do?

Continue to reject this passive acceptance thinking? It's the same line of reasoning Lindsey Graham's minions are putting forward to us in S.C now in 2014.

If you truly are a Constitutional conservative, I think you eventually will reject this whiny excuse to vote for non-conservatives.

...excuse to vote for non-conservatives only because it’s the former party of most conservatives.

What whiny excuse? Get off your high-horse and get back to reality. I’ll ask my DEAD-SERIOUS question again: If the only other ballot choice (this means we are talking general election here) is for a DEM candidate which would increase the count towards a dem majority in either house or a GOP that is not 100% idealogically pure in *your* estimation, what can you do?

As for me, I vote for & directly support the conservative candidate in the primaries. In the general, I hope I have the same candidate to vote for but if not, I vote to deprive the dems of odds in their favor.

What does your seemingly inflexible idealogical purity allow *YOU* to do in that circumstance? Stomp off home and not vote? Perhaps something equally self-defeating like writing in a no-chance-at-all candidate on a general election ballot?

Or do you opt for the GOP candidate (squish or not) in that general election and then get right back to work promoting/supporting conservatives for the next election and keep building momentum to overcome the squishes next time?

Whiny excuse my @$$...
