I wonder if, at a tea party event, someone asked the crowd whether they’d ever vote for a RINO again, how loud the Nos would be? Is there any doubt the majority of tea party folks would yell HELL NO!? Of course, we tea party crazies are a bunch of Obama enablers, don’t ya know.
This whole idea of not following party line making one an ‘enabler’ confuses me. I used to vote straight Republican. I also felt that voting 3rd party would hinder Republican chances. But Republicans have brought nothing but grief. As a whole they may not be as wrong for America as Democrats, but the party is so infiltrated with big government, bipartisan whores, that they’ve effectively nullified themselves as a viable party of change.
How can one ‘enable’ the Democrats by voting 3rd party, when putting a GOP RINO back into office virtually accomplishes the same thing? It’s two sides of the same coin. So, I choose not to comply any longer with straight ticket mentality. I’ll vote for substance over an easy win. If that means people here mock me, so be it.
