who give us this "I can't vote for Obama in good conscience" crap----

Imagine---Imagine--- if there were enough of these knuckleheads with the same attitude, who didn't vote causing the election to go Romney's way.

Probably a good thing too. Imagine the idiocy. I suspect they are paid trolls from the dark side though. Either that or the lowest of low information voter.

If that isn't enough to convince someone, then nothing is, or they want to return to pre-Civil Rights days.

Thanks for the reminder!
