The reality is, Obama and Romney are the two choices.

You know, you are making WAY TOO MUCH sense here. Put on your asbestos suit and prepare to be flamed ceaselessly from now until way after the election. Such clarity of vision and common sense must not go unpunished! /s

Gingrich was my choice as well. I thought he was best equipped for the job, intellectually as well as experience. But for various reasons, it didn't happen. So what can we salvage from the election this year? I have to say I am not big on the third-party-to-send-a-message meme. The only message that sends is defeat. The Constitution Party gets, what, a half to one percent of the vote, Libertarians maybe a point and a half? Sure, that'll send a message alright. And that message is: you're irrelevant.

My view is that defeating Obama is a positive outcome. Obama is the poster child of radical liberalism and Fabian socialism. If we beat him we give the b-slap to not only Obama but all the scumbags who hitch their wagon to his star, Pelosi, Reid, Ayers, Van Jones, Elena Kagan, Eric Holder, Bawney Fwank, Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann, Hollywood suck-ups and all the other media pressitutes and sycophants who carry Obama's water. Obama wins and they win and are empowered and validated. We defeat Obama we gain yardage, because we're that much further removed from financial collapse under the debt burden he is sure to impose in an unfettered second term. It won't matter if we control one or both houses of Congress. Obama has made it clear he doesn't care about the Congress, or the Supreme Court, or anything, for that matter. All he cares about is himself. And that means he will find ways to do what he wants to do. That is the real danger we face in this election. We need to defeat the enemy who we know is at the gates now, and worry about the one who we imagine is over the horizon in another battle. Because if we don't, we won't have the chance to fight the next battle.

I’d rather be irrelevant while standing on my principals. Narrow is the gate...
