I never met a single conservative who thought that Clinton was a better choice than Dole. All of the conservatives I know realized that there wasn't a discernible difference. I'm certainly not willing to sit on my hands and let the democrats have it. I just ain't willing to vote for somebody who may as well be a democrat. How is it more principled to vote for a republican who'll allow a huge national security risk like an open southern border during a war than not to vote? Is pandering to the citizens of another country, here illegally, not corruption? It makes no sense to me to say, "I'm a conservative, dedicated to preserving the Constitution of the US and supporting a return to our founding principles, but I'll vote for a liberal of this party to keep a liberal of the other party from winning". What principle are you adhering to by voting for whoever the GOP trots out just because they aren't democrats? Whatever it is, I don't understand that one either.

The principle of holding the current position at all costs until reinforcements arrive - as opposed to deserting your posts or surrendering to the enemy.
