Nobody said they wanted perfection but if you go out demanding imperfection, you’ll never get good candidates. The GOPe purists seek to destroy conservatives by pushing memes like that.

Part of Dr. Carson's point, which many here jumped on and went nuts over, is that when we get that less-than-perfect candidate, we do ourselves no favors by eschewing said candidate and ensuring an Obama a second term. He was tellig us that when the dice have been rolled, we need to get a taste of reality and do what's best vs. allowing the worst to get a better toe hold.

What happens is that good candidates get stomped on and then those that hate us demand our vote, my answer is no.

There's a big difference between a less-than-perfect candidate, and a pro-abortion, gun grabbing, socialized medicine, big government liberal.

And that's what the GOP wants me to vote for.

Are you saying that I should vote for a pro-abortion gun grabber just because he won the republican nomination?
