I know, I know - my man won't be president. But, that is not the biggest reason for my apathy. I feel as though the Republican party completely ignored its own rules and forced us a man that we all hate. We don't like him, we all know he would be as horrible as Obama but we should rally around him because of our affiliation? **** that!
My personal view is that there is zero difference beyond race between Obama and Romney. When solicited in interviews, Romney himself can't even explain the differences. I consider myself a strong fiscal & social Republican but my ideals seem to be redefined by the masses as Libertarian. I miss the pre-Rove Republican party.
Four years ago, as some of you already know, I worked very hard on the Ron Paul campaign. I did the door to door thing, marched in Washington, attended the Campaign for Liberty (pseudo Republican convention), was precinct delegate, congressional district delegate, and even state delegate. This time around it was more like - meh. The decision seemed to be made before Texas even voted and then other states that actually voted majorities were ignored or are now in law suites for seating delegates. Much of which seems to be ignored by the media conglomerates. Facts are not conspiracies.
Just wondering, fellow conservatives, is your apathy as deep as mine?
