You just can't reason with these people. I would vote for McClintock in a Republican primary, but this is a general election. Principle matters but not at the expense of everything else, every time. But, you can't reason with emotional or irrational people. That is a complete waste of time.....

I would vote for McClintock in a Republican primary [snip]

And if you were told during that primary that if Tom were to win it, he'd have no chance against a democrat in the general election because a conservative can't win in California and only a socially liberal Republican could win, and that it is IMPERATIVE that Tom not win the primary for the good of the Party and to assure a win in the general election, what would you do?
