It’s a bogus argument that people have to look past glaring flaws in the Republican candidates or somehow they’re supporting Obama. At the end of the day 99% of people on FR will vote for the Republican candidate, no matter how distasteful, but until the nomination process is finished they have every right - duty - to hold the candidates’ feet to the fire and make them earn the support of conservatives. Conservatives settled for something less in 2008 and it resulted in defeat. The notion that the most non-conservative Republican is a guaranteed winner is disproven in every election cycle.
