but you refuse to consider the alternative.

Pardon me, YOUR side, the one that counsels "vote Republican at any cost" and the one that I took for DECADES until 2012, is the one refusing to consider the alternative. You REFUSED to consider that your vote "against" Obama in 2012 was a vote FOR everything on Obama's agenda, from nationalized health care with on-demand abortion to gay marriage, activist leftist judges, and the environmentalist "global warming" agenda. You have REFUSED to consider the alternative -- of telling the Romneys and the McConnels of this world to go to hell.

Also very rich that you claim that I and others like me refuse to consider the alternative. The HARD COLD TRUTH is that in 2012 indeed, we considered the alternative and voted accordingly so that Romney LOST, thank God. Conservatism would have been much more WEAKENED if he lost; conservatism has been, as we predicted it would be, STRENGTHENED because Romney lost.

Windflier, for example, is one of several FReepers who come to mind who CONSIDERED THE ALTERNATIVE if Romney lost, and he CORRECTLY forecasted that IF Romney lost --

1) Obama would become loathed and despised (which he has)
2) Republicans and conservatives would kick butt during the midterms (which is exactly what happened)
3) Conservatism would grow stronger (which would be MORE true if McConnell, Cochran, etc. were GONE instead of still there)

You are a fine one to lecture ME about "refusing to consider the alternatives" when it comes to refusing to participate in VOTING FOR TYRANNY, which is exactly what you DID, CEW, when you voted for Romney. You weren't voting "against" a friggin' thing except conservatism.
