To those who say, “If you are not supporting the Republican, you are supporting the Democrat,” let me respond.  I hear you. I understand your point of view.  However, let me offer a different way of looking at it after five decades of working to elect Republicans. You don’t drink something that tastes good today if it is poisonous over the long run.  You don’t burn out a pitcher to win today's game if it destroys his arm and costs the team the World Series and many seasons. Sometimes, the worst thing you can do is win the next inch when it costs you the next mile. If there is nothing a Republican can do to disqualify himself from getting your vote, aren’t you saying Republicans are free to commit the worst possible offenses and be the worst possible people? And be the worst possible party? That’s not OK with me. I think we have to be better than that.  Otherwise, we hollow out what it means to be a Republican. That’s why I stand with @EWErickson “For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?” Mark 8:36
