Imagine belonging to a party that can only win if it lies and cheats...
I think that is what is making it most difficult for me to accept friends and family and neighbors who are "willfully Republican". If things were being played straight up and it was ideological differences, that's one thing - but what we are seeing - from Romney, Ryan, Rove/his super PACs, the ads, and the news items about Bain's association with Ohio voting machines, destruction of Dem voter registration forms, the crowing about 4 years of obstruction and doing nothing for Americans - you name it.
I just don't know how they can live with themselves, never mind be close in this election.

1. I don't know how they live with themselves
Quite easily actually, since everything in the OP is a lie.

2. The problem is the average Republican doesn't think they are lying or cheating
They have an entirely different viewpoint. In their minds, they are the party of truth, liberty, patriotism, etc. They do not think they are doing or saying wrong or dishonest. They think we are the ones doing all of the lying and cheating. Until they start believing in facts which they currently refuse to acknowledge, this tet-a-tet between the parties will continue.
Well you are doing all the lying and cheating. Hell 90% of you are hoping like hell that Gloria Allred will come out with a believable enough lie to sink Romney.
