Elections are about principle.

No, elections are about DEFEATING THE ENEMY!
The ENEMY in the primary will be any RINO who we can beat.
The ENEMY in the General election will be the Democrat.
Elections are not about your ego.
Suck it up and defeat the enemy, you will NEVER have a perfect candidate.

I used to vote third party (Libertarian), too, and felt really smug about it. Never again. I've learned my lesson.
