” I don’t care who you wanted or what you wanted to happen we have Romney. Any vote for anyone else is a vote for obama. “

When did voting your conscience (based upon your principles) become such a bad thing? If this is the case, the electorate is even worse than I thought. A vast majority will blindly support candidate XYZ, just because he has an R behind his name. It’s pretty sad that the GOP-e has been so successful in the conversion of principled conservatives to mindless whores.

Look, if you support Planned Parenthood, abortion, global warming, gun control, liberal judges, etc....Romney is a pretty good candidate for you. Go vote for him and STFU. That being said, quit pimping the Romneywhore line of “if you aren’t a supporter of the GOP socialist, you are basically supporting Zero”. We’ve all had enough of that. The Romneybots do nothing but steel the resolve of principled conservatives to oppose him. Most of the posters on here have integrity. They vote based upon principles. If they vote 3rd party, it means they support that candidate’s positions.

Take the Romneybot talking points elsewhere.

Perfectly said. Every election cycle we get the same thing, over and over and over...

I'm voting for the most conservative presidential candidate on the ballot - and if none of them have any principles, I'll write in my dog.

Blind loyalty to the letter "R" is the fastest way to strike conservatism dead and bury it in this country. Many, many of the powerful elites behind the "R" label desperately want that to happen. They want votes, money and power. They are ONLY willing to give the base as much conservative policy as it takes to get votes, money and power. The only way you'll get more conservative policy is if you draw a line in the sand and tell them THEY WILL LOSE votes, money and power unless they give you what you ask for.
