Ah, and shaking Obama supporters support for Obama is supposed to persuade them to what action, exactly? Which is supposed to have what effect on actually stopping him?

Vote for Hillary in the primaries? Pull it out for Huckabee? Start a Ron Paul write-in wave? Or vote for the republican nominee instead of the democrat nominee?

You tell me...

It’s simply to weaken their support for Sen. Obama. I’m not saying it will stop him. I don’t think Senators Obama or McCain can be “stopped” in electoral terms during this election cycle. And I doubt that I’ll waste much of my time fighting Sen. Obama when fighting Sen. McCain is likely more effective in supporting conservatism.

That is, a conservative GOP is likely the best way to promote conservatism, and so I’ll push for that. Fighting to get a liberal in office, even if a lesser liberal, simply encourages liberalism. I’d rather fight for another day than sell out the future.
