Exactly! I will not vote for Romney and he can not carry Ohio.Please tell him the Presidency can’t be bought.
Buchanan is right. I could never conceive of voting for a third party before, but if the nominee is Romney and there’s a third party that’s actually conservative and makes it into the debates like Perot did, they have my vote. I think if Newt loses this primary he should hook up with this Americans Elect party, which is non-ideological and being pushed by Doug Schoen on Fox News, and maybe draft Trump as V.P.:
A 3rd party CAN win, especially in this climate that’s disgusted with Washington and the current parties. Regardless, the Republicans need to be taught a lesson if they push Romney on us. A lifetime of liberal Rs and Ds trading hands of the presidency is not acceptable. Better to risk suffering 4 more years of Obama if it means after him we can usher in a true Reaganite conservative. Short-term pain, long-term gain. That’s better than 8 years of Mittney Mouse, the white Obama. Even if he won, most likely, Demomitt’s liberal policies, including the ones he flip-flops back to, will fail and simply usher in a comeback of Obama in 4 years or Hilary or a new, more lefty Democrat. I don’t want a lying, sleazy scumbag who lies to every voter’s face over and over again as the standard-bearer of my party, plain and simple. Any party that thinks he’s a good choice is not a party I want to be a part of.
Romney definitely can’t win Pennsylvania. This is a blue-collar state and the Reagan Democrats in the “T” in Pennsylvania absolutely despise and do not trust slick-talking, big city, prep-school, Wall Street types like Romney. They would love Newt though, who was born in and lived in our state capital Harrisburg until he was 10. He has our same sense of patriotism, interest in American history, pragmatic mindset, willingness to question authority, etc.
I think Romney’s poll numbers wouldn’t be anywhere near as high as high if people knew his record, or his total lack of any accomplishments that have anything to do with governing conservatively. Unfortunately they’re selling him based solely on his looks and by covering up as much of his past as possible. It’s the exact same way the Democrats sold Obama to the general electorate. Except this time a pretty large chunk of the base is falling for it too. The fact that Romney’s numbers have not come down at all is a bad sign for us. His support seems rock solid and he only has the potential to go up from here as the other candidates are slimed to death.
