The battle that the author is talking about is the battle for the nomination - and that is pretty much over. During the primaries you get to fight for your perfect candidate.
Now is the time for supporting the winner of the primaries, and focusing attention on getting a better candidate on the Republican ballot in future elections.
Now is also the time for focusing on races in the House and Senate.
Now is also the time for starting to communicate to Romney that he's better tow the f'ing line.
Now is *NOT*, however, the time to stomp one's feet on the ground, and take one's ball and go home.
We're engaged in a battle in which there will never be a perfect outcome, and in which there will never be total victory.
William Shakespeare said it best:
"Rather proclaim it, Westmoreland, through my host, That he which hath no stomach to this fight, Let him depart; his passport shall be made And crowns for convoy put into his purse:..."
Can't do it. I won't be voting for Romney. I can't vote for a pro-abort, gun-banning, big government liberal.
