"How did you arrive at the jackass assumption that anyone was promoting that nonsense?

All the ranting about Romney, as he moves closer to the nomination, makes the Repubs look stupid. If you wish to scream about every error he has made (and is still making) you just help the Dems program. Face it...Newt is dead. Santorum can't get over the hill. Paul is kook. Now, what jackass comments would you care to spew?

You know it! Unlike Romney, Sarah Palin is warm, charismatic, easily likeable and very, very popular with every day Americans who see her as one of their own and look how they went after her!

Does anyone truly think Gaffmaster Mitt "I like to fire people" Romney has a chance against them?

The guy who strapped the family dog on the roof of the car for a 12 hour road trip to Canada is the guy to run against the obama machine? Seriously?

The guy who has spent MILLIONS nationally trashing the very people he needs to campaign for him against obama??? This is guy republicans and independents will vote for??? Okie dokie.

Sorry, he's your candidate, not mine.

He'll never get a vote, primary or general, from my family, my friends or myself.

And the only thing making the Repubs look stupid, is nominating such a left-wing, Progressive Liberal like Romney.

This is what will help the Dems because Romney is the only candidate that guarantees an Obama re-election.

On the money assment of his weaknesses. Except for # 3, he won the Florida primary, only Northern Florida is “southern”. Much of VA and NC aren’t “southern” anymore either and the parts that are really really hate Obama as do all the other southern states that any Republican is certain to carry even if a few ultra-protestants won’t vote for a Mormon.

Mormon is not a plus outside of helping with Mormons in Nevada and Colorado and running up the margin in Utah but I don’t think it matters much, most people don’t care. Obama is probably an athiest.

We’ll know much more after Wisconsin votes. If Romney wins there, I don’t see how he loses the nomination.

I don’t like Mittens, but he could still defeat Obama. I think that Americans would take the advice of the late Mae West: “If you have to choose between the evil you know and the evil you don’t know, try the one you don’t know. It might not be so bad, while the evil you know is evil for sure.” Or something like that.

——”There are three more that don’t involve dishonoring yourself as a conservative:

1. Vote Third-Party
2. Write-in
3. Leave it blank.”

___________________________________

Just as I thought (this is about ego & pride, but not pragmatism).

I’m just trying to get you to understand that your 3 options:

“1. Vote Third-Party
2. Write-in
3. Leave it blank.”

ARE ESSENTIALLY A VOTE FOR OBAMA!!...

Those 3 options amount to THROWING AWAY what would have otherwise been an ANTI-OBAMA vote.

What’s difficult to understand about that?

I’m not so fond of Newt or Santorum — and Romney is going to be another target for liberal racial profiling (he’s a rich white male that they love to “profile”).

BUT my discontent with those 3 candidates is NOTHING NEAR my discontent for Oblamer. So I vote for the non-Obama.

I urge you to reconsider your flawed logic.

...Or maybe are you a plant here for Obama??

They didn’t with McCain...worked well huh?

[ilovesarah2012]

Obama doesn’t need to thank me - the republican party does. I am tired of them giving me candidates who are not conservative. I will not vote against my conscience again.

[ilovesarah2012]

I totally agree with you!

[ilovesarah2012]

AMEN!

[GOPsterinMA]

Yep.

[GOPsterinMA]

Soetoro cannot have another term, period.

Well, please tell us, who will they vote for if the Repubs nominate Romney? Ross Perot?

“I don’t know how things work out but I’m smart enough not to root against the only guy, at this point, that can eject Hussein from the People’s house.

“Getting rid of Obama is what matters. It’s the only thing at this point. My personal preferences or your personal preferences for a nominee and a president are over. It will be Mitt so are you for him or are you for Obama?”

What’s the difference?

For most of us, it’s not Obama the person who we despise, it’s his liberal policies. When the alternative is no different, most voters fall back upon the beer test. That is, which candidate would I prefer to sit down with over beer and watch the game (or in the case of evangelical voters, sit down with over coffee).

I could see myself sitting down with Obama at the local pub and and watching a basketball game over a pitcher of beer. As for Romney? He doesn’t drink beer (or coffee).
