Virgil is running for President. He is not trying to become the Republican nominee.

That right there puts him head and shoulders over the 13 RINOs who ran in the Republican primaries (there were also 3 other lifelong Conservative Republicans running ~ but the RINOs split the vote so their bud Romney could steal the election).

Kinda' catchy though.

The one and only way that you will see me stop telling you that you are a liar is for you to stop lying.

Romney won all of the delegates in VA. Ron Paul won none.

This is not neck-and-neck. Thus, you are a liar.

Romney will win most of the delegates in Texas on Tuesday. Even if this is not quite enough to put the nomination clearly in his hands, next Tuesday when he wins almost all of California’s delegates will surely do the job.

The nominating process is over. It is time for you to move on and find some new dishonest way to try to assure Obama’s re-election.

Supporting the GOP candidate, regardless of that candidate's proven record of liberalism, is an abject failure to stand by ones conservative principles.

perhaps Mittens has ‘evolved’ yeah that's the ticket.

the term flip flop has gone the way of the dodo.

either way, zer0 is much worse than anything we have ever had as a POTUS... he is Karl Marx incarnate...he makes Josef Stalin look like Ronald Reagan....he needs to go NOW. we'll work on straightening out Mittens when we get the Senate and keep the house....

I think the impending sovereign debt default fiasco going on in Europe is why people are scared about continuing to support the President, especially since Obama's policies are the exact ones that got Europe into trouble in the first place!

What Europe needs is a massive dose of good old free-market economics: a lot less obsolete and unnecessary government regulations and definitely a lot more business-friendly taxation systems.

And if Zero bows out on cue for Hillary! in the ol' Slave Party Switcheroo, do you really think Romney is going to beat her? From first black to first woman is one swell foop, here we come.

Yes, the RATS are truly that craven, because as individuals, they are useless in every other respect. While it is true that they are losing cards, they'll play every one they've got, even if it means taking down a black President. They may think the 'women's vote' is big enough to be worth the risk.

“Your own leader ~ the very founder ~ said everybody else belonged to a false church.”

Interesting that you would address this post partially to me, when not even two weeks ago you spoke highly of my synopsis of the merits of the Gelugpa tradition within Tibetan Buddhism.

Oh well, it’s probably hard to ramble incoherently and still recall later who you rambled to. :)

Interesting that you failed to notice that I referenced you because that post was between you and somebody else. That was a courtesy reference. You said you'd been away for a good while so maybe you are not up on that custom ~

Obviously I recognized you by the stains on your robes from all those years of wandering the Himalayas.

Good luck with straightening out a sitting president. That's a combination of wishful thinking and whistling past the graveyard.

I see an historic low in voter turnout this November.

Not really---some Dems frustrated with Bama may not vote at all but conservatives will be chomping at the bit in droves to throw his ash outta there. Indies too.

Windy, I have come to understand a couple things.

All these people claiming they will vote MR to save the country seem to miss one huge point. In fact, the only point. How do you save the country and all the conservative things you believe in and believe make America what it “IS” (or was) by voting for a man with a proven record of going/being against those very things? By abandoning your conservatism to vote MR, you show with your vote that you do not believe in what you say you do. Period. If you did, you’d vote for your beliefs rather than against them.

Simple logic 101 stuff that all these people refuse to admit in their fear of Obama. One cannot split the baby.

Secondly, it’s obvious that lying to one’s self about how such a person will govern any differently than the current occupant has become the talisman of the Right.

There is no point fighting this Windy. People just need to suffer more of the consequences of their actions. Let them.

ONLY RomneyCARE could lose this election.

I agree with the statement above. However, two interesting things about it:

1. the Supremes could make this issue highly irrelevant in the next few days. Lets speculate that they shoot down Obamacare, then it largely takes the issue off the table, as Romney wont want to talk about RomneyCare so he wont bring it up, and Obama an the minions in the MSM wont want to bring up any discussion that would obviously lead to an in depth discussion of what would be Obama’s biggest failure.

2. Even if they dont shoot it down in total, Obama appears from all accounts to be losing reams of white middle class voters. Yes, the Black vote will turn out for him if he appears on American Idol next week and sings “Mammy”, but you still dont win elections in America without white voters (not speaking of “white hispanics” with apologies to Mr. Zimmerman”). I know theoretically you maybe able to calculate a way where he can win with blacks/hispanics without whites, but practically you dont. The only people that I see that are insisting that they wont vote because of Romneycare are conservatives(note that word insisting, not that it might not annoy others, but speaking now of those who are listing that as their first issue).

So the real question to me becomes are the conservatives saying they will not vote for MR under any circumstances going to outweigh the largely white, working class, heterosexuals that Obama is scaring off in droves. I dont know the answer to that question, but I dont think that Romney is a sure loser as some do....but I think he’d greatly benefit from Obamacare being struck down.

It was like he had no idea what America was about, and how it's governed. He has not improved with time.

The only people of the boomer generation who behave that way, are those who've been lost to the sickness of liberalism. The rest of us have not forgotten the America we were born into, and which we were raised to respect and revere.

Something's dreadfully wrong with Mitt.
