Yes, that is the point. But the GOP offices are expected to support the GOP. It's fine if you have plenty of "Liberty Candidates", but if not, you have to support the "ticket" or you won't last. Why do you think "Shadow" parties were created in places? "If" Romney becomes the nominee and you hold a chair position are you going to support him?
Guess that depends on what you mean by support, if someone asks me if I support him, sure, I'll lie and say I do, will I put his bumper sticker on my car, sign in my yard, donate to his campaign, knock on doors for him, argue the case for his presidency, most of all will I vote for him - absolutely not. Why is everyone so worried about this, as I said earlier Romney will barely be a memory after he loses to Obama.
