The "very future of the Republic" is always "on the table" during every election.
There are people who believe that abortion is the defining moral issue of our time. You may think that sounds crazy, but is it more or less crazy than your suggestion that this country can't survive without a President Romney?
The 2012 election is over. As to the two most successful presidential candidates, one liberal won and one liberal lost. Maybe it's time that we forget the 2012 election and prepare a bit better for the next one.

It’s a big assumption to think there will be another one. And if there is, do you think there’s a good chance that the electorate will be any more informed than those who voted this last round? Do you think we can improve upon these voters? Won’t there just be an increase in their numbers in 2016?
If you think things will be better in 2016, you’re much more optimistic than I.
P.S. You really, really think there was no difference between Obama and Romney?
