Yep, Romney is the nominee. So I'm just not Republican. I may cast a vote for him, I may sit at home. I may just not care anymore, because I'm wrong for wanting what I want...My constitutional rights and a leader that understands them.

You anti Paul guys are the ones who don't seem to get it. I totally get it. You're caught up in an OMG THE OTHER GUY IS THE DEVIL argument that the republicans are putting out.

Paul was a way to pull me back into the party that betrayed me... all of us. That's why I was for him getting the nomination.

I trusted them with my vote for Bush over the ALGORE. Then I couldn't possibly let that flip flopper swift boat captain get into office so voted Bush again. I voted for McCain because it's what I was supposed to do, even though I was less than thrilled with him a s a candidate. He was the nominee before I even had a say. Then one day I woke up and realized that the Republicans were doing damage to our rights as well. Not only that, they were compromising with the dems on fundamental issues on the grounds of "reaching across the aisle", Unity, etc. Both sides are against me. I'm a conservative libertarian. Personally I think religion is stupid, but respect everyone else's right to believe what they choose, and show reverence toward their decisions. I'm rewarded by blue laws, Vanity taxes and "sin" taxes. I don't believe in sin, yet I'm taxed for it. I also believe in the constitution as written, no magical interpretations or wacky definitions of "the people", "arms", "shall not" etc. NEITHER PARTY OFFERS ME WHAT I WANT. I'm a constitutional conservative, not a religious progressive, or a socialist progressive, or a religious conservative, progressive conservative etc. For me it's like watching two dogs fight over my dinner, no matter who wins, I lose.

Those of you who insist I don't get it... I get it, I've already lost. Insult me all you like, call me a Paul Bot, an idiot, say that my vote is wasted, that I might as well vote for Obama. You're right, I might as well, because he offers me just as much that I agree with as a Conservative, progressive, religious, anti gun guy. Either way, I lose.
