I’ll admit I’ll vote for the Republican nominee in the general election. To do otherwise would just hand the keys to the WH to the traitors running on the Democrat side.

Post of the Day.
This should be the motto for Free Republic.

Then we would no longer a truly Free Republic, would we?

"In selecting men for office, let principle be your guide.
Regard not the particular sect or denomination of the candidate, look to his character.
The scriptures teach that rulers should be men who rule in the fear of God, able men, men of truth, hating covetousness.
It is to the neglect of this rule that we must ascribe the multified frauds, breaches of trust, and embezzlement of public property which tarnish the character of our country and disgrace government.
When a citizen gives his vote to a man of known immorality,
he abuses his civic responsibility, he sacrifices not only his interest, but that of his neighbor;
he betrays the interest of his country."
-Noah Webster, 1823

It could be argued that a vote for somone other than the Republican nominee, reagrdless of who that nominee turns out to be, betrays the interest of his country.

Hillary won't be elected simply by the democrats. Her rise to power can't be accomplished without a divided Republican party. Her negatives are still well into the double digits. She needs Republicans to stay home in order to win.

This bears repeating, Thank you, I am not voting for the lesser of two evils.

I understand where you're coming from. After all of the smoke clears, the two candidates for the next President will come from the Republican or Democrat parties.

I'm only focused on the Repub nominee. Whoever makes it through the gauntlet will have earned the nomination. Fred is my guy, and I'm confident that he'll be the nominee. His voting record is conservative, and he's an articulate spokesman for his policies.

If it's not Fred, I'm not going to pack up my marbles and go home. The flaws of the other candidates are well known, but they still are far preferable to anyone on the Democrat side.

Let's see how this plays out before we talk about the "lesser of two evils". Duncan's a good man, and I would enthusiastically support him if he knocked Fred out of the race.
