Huh, say it a little louder, I still can't hear it.
No we can't. But I'll be hanged if I vote for a man who believes in socalisism, abortion, and gun control. My conscience simply won't let me. I fear God more than Obama.
My sincere concern is that we may not be able to survive four years of either man and remain free Americans. The worst thing I can forsee is Romney and the Republicans “reform” Obama care and have a major triumph and leave us stuck with the same tyranny.
I have said it before, but I think the analogy bears repeating (Lord knows the pro-Romney arguments are getting threadbare.)If I hand you two glasses of water. I tell you in the glass on the left is a 50% solution of roundup, I then tell you the one on the right has a 40% solution of roundup. Are you going to drink from either glass simply because they are the two I handed you.
Never before could a third party show as great a contrast on as many issues as now. If all the conservatives would stand behind things could change. I think there ought to be discussion on it.

No, it couldn't. Conservatives pull the great middle one way (when we're not busy pulling against each other) and radicals pull it the wrong way. Failure to support McCain in 2008 -- not some nebulous smoke-filled back room conspiracy -- has led to the quite obvious (at the time, check it out, I wasn't the only one saying so on FR, some of the others have since thrown up their hands and left FR for good) outcome that those who bother to run at all are less conservative than the candidates in 2008. Don't vote? You don't count. The apparent steady decline of conservative influence on the Republican field comes directly from that, regardless of the Pontius Pilate style handwashing that goes on around here.

“But I’ll be hanged if I vote for a man who believes in socalisism, abortion, and gun control.”
If you don’t vote for Romney you will be doing exactly that, effectively voting for Obama — Obama is the one you are describing above.
Elections are about choices.
If your only choice is between eating chicken or rat meat or starve to death, starving to death is not the smartest decision.
