The trick is to accurately identify what actually is the worst and the least. In terms of perceived short-term gains and actual long term losses, a guy like Romney looks like the lesser of the two evils, but I have finally come to realize that it is an illusion. It's counter-intuitive, but all we have to do is to look at what's happened to the GOP in the past decade or two to begin to understand the value of the counter-intuitive.
Romney or any other Republican who condones and promotes big government, mandates, and control, is the worst of the two evils before us. The Liberal at least ensures more and more people waking up and searching for an alternative, and they need to find it in the GOP; Romney and like-minded big government Republicans sabotage the future of not just the GOP and conservatism, but the U.S. In the long term, they pose the greater danger to the Republic.
I was a big believer in the ‘lesser of two evils’ mindset prior to the last election. But now, things are totally different and I can feel it in the air. There is NO reason to opt for a liberal with an R after their name as they are out to destroy this country as much as the libtards that have a D. We have the potential for a true, solid choice of a conservative in 2012 and that’s Sarah Palin, and I for one, am not ready to settle ever again.
And I will NOT fall for the ignorant mantra that says I have to vote for someone ‘in the middle’ to keep from offending someone, or to draw in others, blah blah blah....
The gloves are off and it is damn time that a conservative is back in the WH!
