mccain got several million fewer votes than george w. bush. there’s a reason for that ~ is romney, a leftist, more acceptable than the manchurian candidate?
Whether Romney is acceptable/non acceptable is TOTALLY irrelevant at this point. The conservatives I know in real life are appalled at the thought of four more years of Obama. Not a single one of them is on the same page as th unappeasable purists that I only know exist because I see them on FR. I know NO ONE who is sitting out/voting third party.
