Oh bull crap. These are the same things they said about Reagan - gee, I guess I’ll just sit out the 2016 election - no one is pure enough to vote for, according to the purists on here. Everyone is a RINO - here a RINO, there a RINO, everywhere a RINO. I’m not sure most on here even understand what a true conservative is. They just like to throw the term around as if they are in the know. We aren’t going to get anyone who agrees with our own special snowflakes 100% of the time, so we need to accept someone who is at least in love with this country, is for a strong national defense, someone who will restore our military to it’s proper place, and yes, someone who is strong on social issues. Walker isn’t going to fight the same-sex marriage - even though I’m sure he doesn’t believe in it. I think he feels he has spent enough money and time in the courts to last him a lifetime. This is going to get heavy as we get closer to elections - most on here will beat up and spit out someone who might just make a good president - given the chance. Instead, they will stay home, sulk and either let a real RINO get the nomination, or God forbid - another DEM wins the WH. (off my soapbox now).

Yep. We've got a lot of posters here whose attitude is: "I will only vote for a candidate who agrees with ME on 100.00% of everything. That's ME we're talking about. Oh, did I forget to mention ME in this context??"

It's one thing to say "Republican candidate X is too liberal for me and I don't think I can vote for him" - all of us have been there now and then.

It's quite another to say "ONLY candidate Y meets all the tests of agreement with ME. If he is not on the ballot, I'm staying home!!!"
