That could also be a reason. The SHTF all happened really close together.

A song for this election - “THAT’S LIFE” - FRANK SINATRA

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIiUqfxFttM

That’s life, that’s what people say.
You’re riding high in April,
Shot down in May.
But I know I’m gonna change their tune,
When I’m right back on top in June.

That’s life, funny as it seems.
Some people get their kicks,
Steppin’ on dreams
But I just can’t let it get me down,
Cause this big old world keeps spinnin’ around.

I’ve been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
A poet, a pawn and a king.
I’ve been up and down and over and out
But I know one thing:
Each time I find myself flat on my face,
I pick myself up and get back in the race.

That’s life, I can’t deny it,
I thought of quitting,
But my heart just won’t buy it.
Cause if I didn’t think it was worth a try,
I’d have to roll myself up in a big ball and die.

For you, delusions equals Reality.

The post you just flushed on this forum absolutely dripped with delusion in your own fashion. Your vile personal attacks on me on a regular basis, when I comment my opinion on a specific candidate who you blindly protect, is merely an illustration of bias and a hypocritical misrepresentation of the virtues you claim to represent.

So allow me to have my opinion, even if you don’t agree. And I will do the same. You might find that things seem to work better when you do. And refrain from personal attacks on such a cutting and deep personal level.

I say that the Drudge/Newt bit was to hurt Santorum because Drudge wouldn’t do anything to actually help anyone but Romney.

Did you think Drudge was suddenly going to start posting good things about Newt or Santorum that might hurt his guy. Now that’s delusional.

And you need to correctly identify the enemy, it’s not Santorum or his supporters, it’s the media, GOPe, and Romney.

The truth hurts, doesn’t it Psycho? Difference between us is that i am going to be for the person that poses the nearest threat to Romney at the moment. If that were Newt, I would be for Newt, but so far, it isn’t.

One thing I won’t do is trash the person closest to dethroning Romney.

You need to learn to identify the identifiable correctly first. I have never said that Santorum IS the enemy, but I have always pointed out that he is the product of a much bigger sickness in this party.

I find it very funny that Newt’s poll numbers never change, either up or down.

Thanks for illustrating my previous point. From here on out, don't bother commenting on what I write. You are patently incapable of a logical debate.

I seems that the fluctuation of voters moving from candidate to candidate, are mostly fickle voters who vote on popularity, hearsay and MSM influence. (Lemmings) Which explains the swing between Romney and The Reverend Santorum.

Newt has a loyal following, and the internals all point out that something is stirring on his behalf below the radar.

Time will tell and Super “T” is about to clear all that speculation up once and for all.

The majority of GOP voters are beginning to believe, or already believe, that Santorum is simply unelectable. I’m one of them. In fact, I believe he would lose in a landslide.

Rick Santorum only supported unions and pork barrel spending when he was a U.S. Senator from a blue state. Now that he wants the votes of conservatives, he is free to be his true self, only which is it, freeing up the economy or the government controlling your behavior in the bedroom?

That’s very true. Now, hopefully, we can recover from the damage of what this stupidity has created. It may be too little, too late!

No, I made too much sense, but that doesn’t compute in a narrow mind.

Remember

1st: anyone but Romney
2nd: anyone but Obama

Time and is running out on the 1st because momentum will replace it.

[Rick Santorum only supported unions and pork barrel spending when he was a U.S. Senator from a blue state.]

That “excuse” simply won't fly! That's like saying he had to support Specter, so Specter could be the 60th vote that crammed Obamacare down out throats, because he came from a “Blue” state!

Santorum also pandered to Union Detroit Democrats just 2 days ago. So you will have to come up with some other apology. Santorum is fully exposed for what he has always been. A big spending, corrupt, Lobbyist, Washington Insider, who has been completely dishonest about his actual record and intentions. You have been duped by your own ignorance. (A nice way to put it.)

It’s time to plan a 3rd party candidacy.

Romney has proven again and again that his wealth and the other candidates’ poverty cannot withstand the combination of his negative ad assault + the total campaign for Romney agenda of the LameStream Media to include Fox News.

I do not believe I’m being pessimistic. I think it is realism. Groundwork must be laid now.

I will not vote for Romney. He is pure liberal.

Start praying for sanity and Newt Gingrich immediately! He is our ONLY chance to save this mess!

How could Gingrich possibly rise enough in five days to have the chance polls still show Santorum having in multiple states on Super Tuesday?

It may still go to a brokered convention, but I am fully on board for a Third Party effort. There never was a better time to get one started. We simply cannot have any more of this misrepresentation on our behalf. It is destroying this country.

Tea Party, Newt/Sarah! (Or bust!)

I cannot believe that 40% of GOP voters are willing to support a liberal just because he has an R after his name.

I can believe it very, very easily.

People who get all our political commentary on FR and like places have absolutely no idea how many registered Republicans there are out there who like a dignified, well spoken candidate who went to good schools, has executive-quality hair, and doesn't rock the boat too much (or at all).

These are the Rockefeller Republicans who wouldn't be caught dead voting for Joe the Plumber, and my wife's family is chock full of them.

Which is why I've been saying here all year, Freepers are free to loathe Romney all they want, as long as they don't underestimate him.
