You’re certainly free to do that, as is everybody else.
Still, the problem remains that you lose the election, again to an elitist lib.

Let’s hear ONE suggestion (just one) on how to get a conservative on the ticket. My flame-retardant has about run out on this thread LOL!

You’ll never win an election by sitting at home, complaining about the candidates, and watching the whole process unfold on TV. All while you’re stuck to your keyboard flaming newbies on FR who are your allies in this fight. Again, I despise Romney as much as you do.

You have not been flamed. You have been called out, though.

You will KNOW it if you're ever in a FR flame war; no LOL will be necessary should it happen.

I’m sorry you feel like I’m flaming you - I was simply noting that your language implied that being here was the proof of your conservatism.

I would also posit that withholding votes *is* a long-term strategy to reclaim the party nominations for conservatives, albeit one that carries significant risks. At the bottom line, the GOP is showing that they feel as long as they are inches to the right of the worst left-wing marxist put up by the dems, then conservatives will fall in line to vote for the lesser of two evils.

Romney’s supposed electability was a major part of what propelled his candidacy. While the GOP elite clearly have not yet learned the lesson taught in 2012, perhaps some of the GOP electorate will heed the conservatives’ warnings.
