I'm a “principled conservative” who doesn't vote for liberals like Romney. I voted but not for him and if he runs again you can tell him I'm still not voting for him. The travesty he pulled off at our Republican National Convention was the REAL Romney.
If you are a Romney promoter who only joined FR in 2012 to promote him and have come back AGAIN to do the same for 2016, you are on the wrong forum and that is putting it mildly.
Marcella,
Read all my posts before making wild accusations.
I will repeat a summary of my posts again.
In 2012 Romney was at the exact bottom of my preference list.
I supported Cain & Newt at the top of my preference list.
Cain had the best chance to beat Obama. But he dropped out.
Newt would have won if Santorum drops out.
Then we were given Romney. Only reason ROmney won nomination is because conservatives split the votes in primaries. I had to make a choice between Romney or abstain in 2012. Since I spent majority of my life in Chicago, I would never in a million years do anything to help Obama. If the GOP had nominated the dog catcher, I would walk over burning coals and shards of glass to vote for the dog catcher against Obama.
Observing how the country is doing under Obama, I feel thoroughly vindicated.
Now 2016 is straight ahead. Again, Romney and Jeb are not on my support list. At top of my list are Cruz, Perry and Rand. But against Hillary I will walk over burning coals and shards of glass to vote against her.
You may call me a pragmatic conservative.
