The rhetoric is not to my liking. The language of "hate and evil" can be too easily parodied in the hands of a skillful opponent, and besides, lots of people on the other side are not "evil," just misguided and misinformed.

But the overall point is valid. Protest votes, staying at home and other such nonsense should be avoided. Always vote for the most electable conservative candidate, settling for a less than perfectly conservative office-seeker if necessary, and even, in a pinch, vote for a RINO, since RINOs are more susceptible than Democrats to arm twisting when the chips are down and an important vote is on the line.

That is an understatement but dittos. This nation is in trouble if those with whom we disagree are viewed as enemies, and visa versa. Many hold opposing views in good faith, and are good people. In fact I hold some opposing views on some things from the majority sentiment here. I don't want any part of this kind of rhetoric. I dissent.
