There are a lot of people who are afraid to post on this forum these days.
Reasonable, thoughtful, conservative people who don't want to be excoriated because they want to keep Hillary Clinton out of the White House.
I don't really blame them.
I sympathize with wanting to keep Hillary out of the whitehouse.
But doing it by voting in a ‘Hillary Lite’ is not a ‘win’ but a ‘compromise’ of Conservative principals.
If that is going to be the standard of the GOP, then the GOP is dead. Or will be shortly.
Standing up for principals, at the sacrifice of some temporary loss, is better than compromising those principals for a temporary gain.
I seriously doubt any of them will waste their vote in a close election just because they even 'hate' the candidate.
Afterall, there's hate and then there's the kind of HATE one has for the Clintons.
The latter one's the ace of trump.
