Voting for the lesser of two evils is still voting for evil. I take it you don’t like Romney and he was not your first or second choice and so you really didn’t support him or vote for him. Rather you voted against Obama and Romney was the only best option. I call that anti-voting.

But understand this: Anti-voting is not going to get ANY Repug elected. We have to have a reason to vote FOR someone - or they won’t win.

“Vote for Romney - he sucks less” is just not going to make it. It didn’t work for McCain. It won’t work in the future.

So. You rant at us who don’t vote, vote third party or write in as having the same effect as voting for Obama. At least we have a conscience and conviction. You are just a Repub toadie conditioned to vote for any RINO Rove tells you to.

Yes, we conservatives fully realize the consequences of our decisions. We know however the only way for the Republican Party to have any effect is for us as the base to say ENOUGH!

That happens in the primaries. Once we get to the GE we can only vote for the most conservative candidate even if the most conservative candidate isn’t very conservative.

Not voting is the same as voting for the opposition (see my arithmetic notations upthread).
