“If Mitt wins the nomination, as seems very likely, I will enthusiastically support his candidacy. For my friends who have hesitation on that score, I’d just ask you to keep four things in mind: Justice Scalia just turned 78, Justice Kennedy will turn 78 later this year, Justice Breyer will be 76 in August, and Justice Ginsburg turned 81 about a week ago. We wish them all well, of course, but the brute fact is that whoever we elect as president in November is almost certainly going to choose at least one and maybe more new members of the Supreme Court — in addition to hundreds of other life-tenured federal judges, all of whom will be making momentous decisions about our lives for decades to come. If you don’t think it matters whether the guy making those calls is Mitt Romney or Barack Obama, I think you’re smokin’ something funky.” —columnist Andrew McCarthy
if you do not vote against obama.....s**t may hit the fan..do you feel lucky?
It’s OK, Sparky. We’re all voting against Zero. We’re also voting against Slick Willard. Why vote for one of two evils when you can vote for Goode ?
You must have missed what I wrote above. I live in New York, which will unquestionably go hard for Obummer.
Given that certainty, I say that in my case, a vote for Romney is a wasted opportunity to vote for somebody much better. Given that my vote isn't going to tip any balances, I'm going to cast my vote for someone I believe in.
If you read the writings of the Founders, you'll find they agree with that position, by and large. They even encourage voting for the person you believe in, when a vote for a "lesser evil" would make a difference! They had stronger principles than even I espouse!
I'm not voting for Romney. I'm not voting for Obummer. I'm voting for someone I think can do a great job given the chance, and God willing, she'll get a chance.
