You've been painted as a rominy lover regardless of despising the liberal man, because it is easier to hold onto the vitriol if they can marginalize you by defining you the way they want you to be rather than the way you are. I get it daily at FR now. I even go out of my way to define Romney as a liberal by his history and I call him a wet finger int he wind liberal when calling him the only viable alternative to having little barry bastard commie in power for four more years. And still they call me a Romney lover, a liberal in hiding, a stealth Mormon, and various other degrading things they feel will shut me up. It is growing to the level of irrational. ... Are they havin' fun yet? I'm going to start calling them the all or nothing tantrum troops.

The hatred and abuse directed at Romney and at those who have made a political decision to support the GOP nominee for President in November exhibit all of the rationality and respect for the truth that one would expect from a cult. Weeks ago I dubbed them the FR He-Man Mitt Haters Club because they were so childish and short-sighted. Tantrum troops works too.
Mitt Romney is nobody's idea of an across-the-board ideological conservative but there were never any of those who ran for the GOP nomination this time. Romney beat all of the others and now we must choose between him and Obama, or else sit this one out.
The fact remains that no candidate is perfect, every candidate is a compromise, every vote is a vote for the lesser of evils, and the only thing that categorically distinguishes Romney from McCain, GWB, and Bob Dole is his Mormonism.
That is the plain truth of this ugly situation.
