I read about that right after Graham did that after his visit with Romney. I recall shaking my head that another person dumped his beliefs to endorse Romney.

So many have denied their beliefs to vote for someone who isn't Hussein. The same will happen in the Republican Party from now on - the candidate will always be a liberal because they know the conservatives will always abandon their beliefs and vote for whomever the GOPe wants.

The downfall of this country is coming and soon.

You express my sentiment on the matter beautifully; thank you.

The Republican Party lost my vote with the nomination of Romney -- back in 2008 I pinched my nose and voted for McCain, later telling myself I'd not vote against someone ["fall for" the "the other guy's worse" argument] again. Romney is not someone I want to vote for, so I won't... and it's amazing how much the sentiment has become "you're voting for Obama by voting third party!" around here.

Exactly right. Well and truly said.

And it won't be those who stand upon timeless principles that bear the blame. Nor the jackals that beset us all (they are what they are)... It is those who appease and bow down, who quail before adversity rather than standing firm and drawing a hard line... There is where the blame shall lie. It is the lack of opposition that allows it. Evil prevails when good men do nothing.
