“That’s exactly where we are,” Beck said. “Every election, (we say) we’re not going to vote for one of those guys.”
But when the time comes, conservatives always rationalize that the Republican nominee is at least better than the Democrat, and get sucked back in.
“It’s time to stand up and say what you mean, mean what you say, and accept the consequences,” Beck said, encouraging people to be honest, decent, and true to their beliefs.
The only way to win, is not to play that game
well let’s see I believe that O won the last election and there were lots of conservatives who sat out the presidential portion of the election. They said no way will I vote for the lesser of two evils. It is good to have O for another four years because THEN we will realize what needs to happen.
We are reaping the results of that thinking… we have O for another four (who knows maybe for ever). The reason the lefties win is because they take a hal a loaf or a quarter of a loaf and keep pressing.
I am all for a conservative nominee for the GOP to be president but please let us not engage in trying to find ‘the perfect’ candidate when we can in fact have a ‘good enough’ candidate. We watched Romney and fellow conservatives chew up and spit out any one who wasn’t perfect. We got Romney and folks stayed home.
No, not all of us rationalize things and get sucked back in. Many of us do reach a breaking point, where we refuse to sell our souls. It happened to me in 2012.
