“As for me, I do see a difference between Romney (who will be have to at least listen to conservatives, but probably will have to act conservative) and Obama (who will have no practical limits if re-elected). See my tag line.”

The official FR party line is anyone but Mitt. Don’t vote Obama, don’t vote Romney. Write in Palin.

I assume if enough of us do that Obama will win, and the GOPe will be taught a lesson!

Openly supporting Romney is strongly discouraged here.

...Thankfully. I personally wish the "soft" support of Romney would be banned as well.

Yes, I read the relevant posts. But I also think for myself. I don't want GOPe to be taught a lesson if it means that we become a Western European-style county. If Obamacare is implemented, we will never get rid of it (see Social Security and Medicare). Future candidates for president will argue over the size of spending on the entitlements, not on whether we should have them (see Great Britian and their "conservatives").

Again, Romney would only slow down the descent, but he would slow it down. Obama in a second term will wipe out so much freedom that we will not ever get it back in any of our lifetimes.

Simple choice. It took us 80 years to get from FDR to here, if we have Obama for another 4, it will be at least 80 until this country rights itself (if ever).

Romney pretty much has won the nomination, under the existing rules. There is no realistic third choice. See my tag line.
