Pence is not running

Reader comment on item: What's a Conservative to Do? Vote for Pence

Submitted by Rdolgin, Oct 17, 2016 at 15:50

Sir: thanks for thoughtful and expert work. Will you be one of the opportunity cost voters, to borrow from the finance world, as your failure to vote is an effective ballot for Hillary? You left out the consequences of the regime in power plowing on with their "transcendent" wreckage, although I am sure you have considered the problems.
