WHY SHOULD I EVEN BOTHER TO VOTE?



I have heard some conservatives say they aren’t even going to bother to vote because there isn’t THAT much difference between the choices. 
I have also heard some say they are going to vote against ALL incumbents regardless of their politics.
I say in both cases that would be a huge mistake.  In the case of voting against all incumbents, I understand, they want to clean house.  However, the time to do that is during the primaries, and oddly enough, most of the people who say they are going to do this didn’t even bother to vote in the primary.

In the case of not even bothering to vote at all, that is also a huge mistake.  I know who didn’t vote in the last Presidential election because they didn’t like either candidate.  They didn’t like Obama because he’s a liberal Democrat, and they refused to vote for a Mormon…Well, all I can say to that is “how’s hat working out for you”.

Consider this; who would be better for the country – Harry Reid or Mitch McConnell as Senate Majority Leader?  Obviously Mitch McConnell would be.  Senator McConnell may not be as conservative as we would like on a few things, but at least he would allow the Senate to at least vote on bills passed by the house.  And even more important, he wouldn’t be a rubberstamp for any Supreme Court nominee, or any court, for that matter. 

I’m sorry if your candidate lost in the primary, and you think your remaining choice sucks.  I get it, I’ve been there.  But so what!  Get over yourself.  It happens.  It’s part of life.   You must not just give up and quit now? 

Harry Reid remaining majority leader in the Senate means things continue to get worse.  Barack Obama packing the courts with Socialist/Marxist judges means things will continue to get worse.  If you stay home, or you cast a “message” vote for some third party candidate, that’s what you’re voting for.  That’s what you’ll get, and that’s what you’ll be leaving for your kids to inherit. 

A vote for anyone other than the Republican, no matter who that Republican is, is a vote for Harry Reid and Barack Obama.  You want to purge the party?  Do it from a position of strength. 

Tuesday, go vote. Vote for the Republicans.  Send a message that you are not a moody, unreliable person who will take your ball and go home if you don’t get your way, but that you accept your party’s primary decision.  It’s a decision you don’t like.  It’s a decision you’ll fight in the next primary if necessary.  But for the good of the country, you’ll live in “now” and work for the future.  Anything else is a vote for a Marxist dictatorship.



HERE’S SOMETHING FOR YOU TO THINK ABOUT.
