(To Firebrand): You probably don’t want to hear this, but I’m pretty sure the destruction that Romney does to conservatism and shifting the GOP to the left is even more damaging long term, than the damage Zero can do in the next four years.I’ll vote for conservatives down the ticket, but won’t support either gun grabbing, global warming, abortion supporting socialist.

Bingo on all counts!

Romney is the RINOs' way of ensuring that future GoP voters get stripped of all key identity-voting issues other than the "R" they are sewing on voters' clothing...

Pro-abort? (The new Romneyites conclude, "Who cares? I've jettisoned the pre-born.")

And the GoP, which is already down to a record-low Major party % of just 29% of all registered voters, will scatter to the wind once Romney is nominated. There won't be a GoP "base" left after this election.

I know I'm leaving the GoP (for either Constitution Party or Independent status) once Romney is officially nominated...and I will advocate that others follow that exodus...

That will leave just two liberal parties trying to outliberal each other...just like we have two liberal candidates duking it out for the liberal & independent votes...while the conservatives get taken for a ride with two spiritually-drunk drivers at the wheel!

Goode had 3 and a half years to mount a credible campaign. Can’t even manage to get on the ballot in all 50 states.

He will not win the election.

Say all you want about the (D) and (R) candidates, they are both in the running.

Goode will not place in the top 2.
