OK, there are many posts here by self avowed conservatives, stating quite clearly that they won’t vote for various RINOS in various elections. This includes some who are quite proud of obeying “God’s Will” and refusing to vote for Romney. Many say they prefer a left wing democrat to a RINO.
It is to these sentiments I am responding. I guess you did not sit out 2008 or 2012, and I hope you don’t sit out 2014 or 2016. Just my very sincere opinion.
I am not a pollster and I have no independent evidence that conservatives sat out 2012. Based on sentiments expressed here I suspect that many did.
