Its hard to explain but here goes...<br />I dont think many true active Conservatives neglected to vote.<br />Conservatives in life but not in every waking thought werent motivated to vote.<br />They were almost there after the first debate. They saw a spark and started to get excited at the thought of a fighter. A person that has convictions and is willing to stand up for them.<br />But with the second two debates when they again just heard words with no vision,no mental picture from the words uttered by Romney. It was like Romney was a set of words repeated all throughout the primaries.<br />The old just words just speeches.<br />The first debate was a true contrast that conveyed some sort of vision that could manifest in a voters mind and result in action.<br />The two following debates were Romney coasting.<br />A return to words.<br />Therefore there was no spark.No expectation that A Romney would would work on the vision.<br /><br />They heard the words I agree with Obama and said to themselves........<br />I am to busy in work and home life to bother voting.<br />Why would they at that point.<br />They saw absolutely no distinction. No new possible picture.<br />So if there is no difference no vision no new mental picture of a possible better path.<br />Why bother. I am too busy.<br />Romney wont stand up for his principals. He will never stand up for mine.<br />To reach the very busy silent majority. They must be inspired.<br />Bush redo and Obama lite are not inspiring. Why even get up off the couch if the results are not so different.<br />You and I are political junkies.<br />We know the full story.<br />These busy people only know the repeated soundbites from the MSM. But they know they arent hearing the entire truth.<br />They dont have the time to find out the entire numbers/graphs/timetable/percentages reality.<br />They need to be inspired every time they tune in for the few moments they set aside.<br />A Constitution class combined with fiscal astronomical numbers bla bla bla and bla bla I agree with my friend on the other side is so not inspiring!<br />spathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13828894306167927489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4739672964837343956.post-67160678213672980802012-11-30T10:24:58.362-05:002012-11-30T10:24:58.362-05:00Good quote, and I think it's exactly how so ma...Good quote, and I think it's exactly how so many of us feel - stunned and betrayed.NumberWisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11682512594834876895noreply@blogger.com
