And Ron Paul stays in all the way. Runs as third party and clinches it for Obama.

I live in Texas and am still annoyed at the way we were screwed around on the primary date.

I shall, however, vote for the next president of the United States.

And I don’t mean the Green Paty.

Not everything is a conspiracy. Newt is simply out of money and out of time. You don’t have to like it, but it’s the truth.
No fair making sense.

When I see video of Newt himself saying it I’ll pay attention.

Did Newt have a chance to win and Santorum refuse to drop out even though Newt had twice as many delegates? Ah..., NO!

If Santorum is a Jackass, what does that make Newt, a Jackass to the X?

So,what of a brokered convention? Couldn't Newt pull off the nomination that way? If such a miracle happened,it would be terrific,astounding,wonderful,et cetera.
I'm trying to be realistic and I WANT 0BAMA GONE. Unless something else happens,i'm planning to hold my nose and vote.
I'm not staying home,and i'm not writing anyone in.Who knows what will happen between now and November? Let's wait and see. Meanwhile,let's do all we can to get that rat bastard out of office and send his miserable ass packing.

No. Supporting one America hating, gun grabbing, activist judge supporting Marxist over another is anything but rational.

Your theory is blown all to hell because the Kenyan has made it clear he will not be obstructed by Congress and has and will continue to blatantly defy them and do what he wants.

Point 8 is wrong.

“A Marxist rubber stamp is not as dangerous as a Marxist lame duck.”

If we get real conservatives in the House and Senate, I thing the country will be better off with a lame duck Obama being rendered useless and neutered than Mitt with a mandate.

In any event - I will not be voting for Mitt.

Check out Virgil Goode, who’s running for Prez as the Constitution Party’s candidate. He’s a good man.

And if somehow Mitt does win, there goes any chance to nominate a Conservative in 2016.

That’s about it huh. I just don’t get it. He’s been dead in the water for months. Why now? Why not keep his word and stay in until the Convention. He wasn’t doing anything anyway. This is what he called running for the last couple of months. Why formally change the label?

> Looks like I won’t be voting on the presidential part of the ballot.

Rather than withhold your vote for President, may I suggest that you either a) vote a third party candidate who better matches your values, or b) do a write-in if your state permits it.

Either of those, while they won't win the election, will allow you to cast your vote in a way that expresses your unhappiness with the offerings of the two establishment parties, and shows better your support for your own values.

I plan to write in Sarah Palin, because I believe she is the best we have for America. It pains me that she's not running, but since I can't get behind the establishment twits, I will express my support for someone who I believe represents the best match with my own values.

Respectfully submitted for your consideration.
