Please remember that conservatives must vote this November, no matter what we think of the liberal from Massachusetts. We don’t have to vote for Romney, particularly in states that Obama is guaranteed to carry, but we have to vote. Whether we end up with a big government liberal like Obama in our White House or with a big government liberal like Romney in our White House, we need as conservative a Congress as possible to restrain the excesses of the administration. Vote!
I hope a truly viable third-party candidate happens. JNoble has pointed out that conditions are uniquely aligned for a plurality win favoring conservatives.
But in the event it's a mish-mash with no clear or viable one to vote for, the General vote, even if it's to Pat Paulsen, speaks and sways influence.
