Majority of Conservatives See Romney as "Acceptable"
gallup.com ^ | January 10, 2012

PRINCETON, NJ -- Mitt Romney is the now the only candidate that a majority of conservative and moderate/liberal Republicans nationwide see as an "acceptable" GOP nominee for president. Conservative Republicans are more likely to say Romney would be an acceptable nominee than either Newt Gingrich or Rick Santorum.

If Romney gets the nomination, I’ll sit this one out. And yes, I’m quite aware that it may give us four more years of Obama*.

*I still do not believe Obama will finish his first term.

I have not met a single Conservative in Mississippi that would pee on mitt if he were on fire. Everyone I speak with... unless they are party line hacks... refuse to vote for the rat bastard if he wins the nomination. Most despise mitt as much as obama. I have spoken with hundreds of voters here in the last year. Maybe up north or out west they like lying pos progressives... but mitt will not win the Southern vote and he cannot win the election without us.

Sometimes I think America does not understand us very well. Ask charlie gibson about how we ran his ass off the coast when he tried his anti Bush crap in Biloxi... post Katrina... he got in his car and left the state pronto.

Romney is the Default RINO candidate, Mr. Congeniality in an empty suit who stands for nothing.

The Democrats have ObamaCare, the Republicans will have RomneyCare. This is how the media will make Obama palatable to the voters. Furthermore, I could not believe how poorly Romney performed in the New Hampshire debate.

If Romney wins the Republican nomination Primary election, he will lose the general election to Obama.

Pure BS. As is the notion that these little northern states should have anything to do with picking the Republucan nominee. Iowa? Really? Lol! New Hampshire? Double lol!

We are witnessing a kabuki theatre run by the MSM. What a farce. Too many people simply don’t stop and think what a joke all this is. The Republican Party is run by a bunch of liberals who have no desire to do good for the nation. If they did care about the country they would trash the current system and construct a sensible way to choose a nominee.

The solution to our current problems is not political. We are beyond that.

I’ve said that either Obama is a piker, in which case he will go down hard, or he is the antichrist, in which case it will take God to sort it out.

If he goes down and is replaced by Romney, I think Romney fits the bill of the latter even more.

IOW, I LITERALLY consider Obama the less of the two evils.

And to be clear, I consider Obama to be the worst president in our nation’s history.

In other words, 41% of all GOP, conservative and RINO consider Romney unacceptable.

59% will hold their nose and pull the lever and the others may not. Great job GOP establishment for pushing another RINO on us while undermining conservatives and allowing a Soros puppet libertarian (a crazy one at that) to screw up the process. And what does the nation get if Romney wins the POTUS? A liberal. No thanks.

It is third party Tea Party time. The GOP left didn't get the message in 2010, maybe they need another lesson.

For me, Romney is a vote of last resort only.

And, unless the conservatives, Santorum, Perry and Newt quickly coalese and boil down to a single conservative, so they can garner all of the conservative vote behind one candidate, we will be faced with Romney winning the nomination.

He takes a part of the conservatives, but a majority of the moderates and independents.

We simply have to see a single good conservative going up against him, then that person will ride that wave to the nomination.

But it better happen soon, no later, IMHO, then right after SC. Otherwise, if Romney ends up winning Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina (because of the split vote for conservatives) and then Florida for the same reasons...the momentum will be hard to stop.

So, Santorum, Perry, and Gingrich, get together after NH...or no later than after SC and make the hard decisions for the sake of the country. Which ever of you three has garnered the most vote and delegates at that point should be endorsed by the other two who then drop out and throw their support behind that person.

Othewrwise it will be Romney against Obama. I do believe Romney can win, and that he owuld be far better than Obama...but also far less than what we as conservatives want and need to post haste begin turning this nation around and back to its fundamental, moral and conservative roots.

And a root canal can be “acceptable” in order to avoid pain.

But just as with the root canal, accepting RINOmney will leave one with less than one had before.

RINOmney is a dork.

Period.

If Romney wins the Republican nomination Primary election, he will lose the general election to Obama.

My Prediction?

We have 5 or more candidates in November...

*Obama
*Romney (?) or ?
* Paul
* Nader
* And Bloomberg / Trump / Palin / Whomever ?

Obama wins with 37% of the vote and the Country is so polarized that _ _ _ _ _..... You fill in the blank, I don't even want to got their in terms of peoples moral and potential scenario's...

” I’m quite aware that it may give us four more years of Obama*.”

And that means the suspension of the Constitution. A Marxist/socialist government and situations reminisent of Germany 1939.
