If Romney is the nominee, with his Progressive Liberal record, the GOP is toast.
Obama and Co. will destroy him leading up to the election.
Romney’s not a fighter, not a conservative, not even a Republican with his background.
His loss will make McCain’s loss in 2008 look like a win.
Furthermore, if Romney is the Nominee, it will suppress turnout for downstream races as well.
He is the worst possible candidate that the GOP can put up.

Herman Cain has spent his life living and working all over the country -- Indiana, Georgia, Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas, Washington, D.C. -- but never in Chicago.
So it's curious that all the sexual harassment allegations against Cain emanate from Chicago: home of the Daley machine and Obama consigliere David Axelrod.
Suspicions had already fallen on Sheila O'Grady, who is close with David Axelrod and went straight from being former Chicago mayor Richard M. Daley's chief of staff to president of the Illinois Restaurant Association (IRA), as being the person who dug up Herman Cain's personnel records from the National Restaurant Association (NRA).
The Daley-controlled IRA works hand-in-glove with the NRA. And strangely enough, Cain's short, three-year tenure at the NRA is evidently the only period in his decades-long career during which he's alleged to have been a sexual predator.
After O'Grady's name surfaced in connection with the miraculous appearance of Cain's personnel files from the NRA, she issued a Clintonesque denial of any involvement in producing them -- by vigorously denying that she knew Cain when he was at the NRA. (Duh.)
And now, after a week of conservative eye-rolling over unspecified, anonymous accusations against Cain, we've suddenly got very specific sexual assault allegations from an all-new accuser out of ... Chicago.
Romney as the nominee means the GOP cannot effectively use the close ties between Wall Street and the Dems as a campaign issue.
Romney as the nominee means the Reagan Dems have little incentive to switch over to the GOP.
Romney as the nominee means independents will be turned off by a guy who thought transporting the family dog hundreds of miles on the roof of the car was a good idea.
Romney as the nominee means all that opposition research is just going to be overkill, as Romney's own mouth will provide them all the soundbites they need.
And that doesn't even get into the problems that Romney as the nominee will cause in getting the GOP base motivated.
The ONLY positive that I can see coming out of a Romney nomination is that all of the GOP-E pinheads who are pushing him will be thoroughly discredited for 2016.
He has practically unlimited funds to hammer his opponents, without response, and still can't get more than 35% to 37%. If he can't BUY republican votes with the sheer weight of negative ads running against his opposition, how is he going to stand up to Obama when his campaign responds in kind?
Yeah, it just about killed me to give her credit, but it's only fair -- she was the author.
One would think they were discredited with the Mcpain train. As long as there RINO’s in charge, this is what we will get.
Yes, they will be, but who will remember. These are the same clowns that gave us McCain, and no one seems to make the connection. Short memories, thy name is the Republican Party powers-that-be.
The Establishment is scared to death of Newt Gingrich!
The larger question is, what do you do about a situation in which the political smear, the pamphleteering (that was so common and odious and gross in the last decades of the Roman Republic), is ascendant over any consideration of patriotism, character, and sound policy?
The Obama crowd are just evil, corrupt people. To see them so powerful and awe-inspiring is so very discouraging -- and it shows what shoveling out federal money to drooling mobs unworthy of the name of "citizen" can do for you.
There is a big difference between 2008 and 2012. The GOP had almost no chance of winning in 2008. In 2012, the only way the GOP can lose is to nominate an utter dolt. I think even McCain could have won it all this year.
You said it right there...
The last decades of the Roman Empire...
“The ONLY positive that I can see coming out of a Romney nomination is that all of the GOP-E pinheads who are pushing him will be thoroughly discredited for 2016.”
The way the McCain disaster discredited them?
