Amen bro, and God bless you for your service.
Despite his earlier dealings, I believe Romney may pleasantly surprise us if we can get the righ congress in place.
He is one who, IMHO, as regards the military and our future delings with Red China, is saying the right things, particularly regarding the Navy right now.
We’ll see, but I too simply cannot allow by any action on my part, to low Obma a pass of any sort into a second term to deal his lethal blows to our Republic.
God’s speed and BZ.
Thanks for your reply. I wish I could be as optimistic about Romney as you are. If he wins, I predict we’ll lock horns with him on a regular basis. I expect plenty of Bush-style Amnesty dustups, as well as some Harriet Miers type nominations. Very unpleasant disagreements headed our way, but also very WINNABLE, with the Tea Party in the game. We won those battles against Bush, and we weren’t even organized yet.
I do think there is one genuine positive with Romney: he’s truly worried about China. He is probably for revising our disastrous trade regime with the Chicoms. I think Romney’s views on China are what got guys like Thad McCotter onboard Romney’s campaign months ago. Trump too. I also think Romney does love the country. I consider him profoundly misguided on many issues, but not intentionally malevolent.
The range of opinion that used to characterize the U.S. as a whole up to the 1970’s has shifted pretty much into the Republican party. The dems are now the party of Revolution. Romney is in many ways an old style, centrist democrat. At least Romney has some conservative friends. We’ll have some pull, although not much.
The country is in such dire straits, that whoever fixes things will win fame and glory. Maybe the confluence of circumstance and ambition will drive Romney to places that conviction and principle would not. One of the Henri’s who became King of France during the religious wars converted to Catholicism. Previously, he had been a great Protestant leader. To become King, however, he had to become Catholic. According to legend, he said prior to converting, “Paris is worth a Mass.” Let’s hope Romney says, “Mt Rushmoor might be worth some China tariffs and a justice or two.”
But come Hell or high water, Go Tea Party!! Vote Hobbitt!!
