He conducted himself with class and since the debates, made a strong case for conservative principles on economic issues. Best of all, he made it a real race. I already voted for him. Tonight, I want to salute him for the classy campaign he ran and made a lot of us proud.
Thank you Mr. Romney. We hope to call you Mr. President. In the unlikely and unfortunate event we can't, at least this FReeper will remember you as the one who took on Obama and came razor close to defeating him.
You are 100% correct. I just laughed whenI saw that. Nobody is going to change their mind because some fat governor hugged the skinny President. So ridiculous. This obsession with every little nuance is becoming boring.
Agree. I was deeply disappointed with many Freepers tearing this guy down for not being conservative enough. There are days here when I wonder if Reagan would get through to some here.
Applause to Romney for doing it with class. I hope he wins.
I can listen to someone who reluctantly votes for this creep. But, anyone who adores him like this is no conservative.
I don’t like Romney’s record on several issues, and I still think there is a danger that once in office, (and I fervently hope he gets there) he will just “shake the Etch-A-Sketch” and govern from a position far left of what he’s run on. I hope I’m wrong and he surprises me.
As to the campaign, I think Mitt left a lot of ammo in the magazine. He was on cruise control after the first debate. He could have hit Obama much harder, but the fear of “alienating undecideds” held him back. That line of thinking is BS, but it is what it is.
In his favor, I think he’s a decent, scandal free man, and Lord knows in that department he’s a light years ahead of the phony, socialist, choom headed flim-flam artist that’s living in the White house now.
If I didn’t have kids there might be a small part of me that would take grim satisfaction in seeing the country get what it voted for good and hard with an Obama second term.
As it is, go, Mitt, go!
I agree. The leftists worship their leaders. Conservatives don’t. And Romney is NOT a conservative.
I’ll be enjoying the total breakdowns of the left tomorrow, though. :)
I believe many here owe apologies to those whom sad Mitt was the guy to do this. he fought Obama straight up and won... he only was put down bythe media and that was an onslaught not many can endure.
I just voted in Chi-Town (for all the good that will do).
Turnout appears light, but I'm sure nearly 100% will show as having turned out.
Very intimidating: about 10 Obama electioneers standing outside handing out Obama/Biden postcards and a printed list of candidates for which to vote.
One woman marched right up to me and demanded to know who I would vote for.
Feeling the cue ball on a field of eights, I smiled and pointed to the Obama sticker on her coat.
I then voted for RR, of course.
We really are descending into a banana republic.
