The GOPe didn’t “select” Romney. Romney has LOST all of these primaries when you add up the anti-Romney vote and he wouldn’t even be in the running now if some of these “half-baked” conservative candidates had consolidated on a meaningful conservative candidate (like Gingrich) early on.

The hatred here for the GOPe is misplaced. It’s the voters and Perry and Cain and Bachman for splitting the conservative vote early. The GOPe had their choice settled early and we didn’t, so now we reap it.

Wrong again, genius. The conservatives were consolidating on a meaningful conservative candidate (like Gingrich) early on.

You didn’t seriously think we didn’t know Santorum was the GOPe guy staying in just long enough to prevent the above from happening? The other “half-baked” ones got out plenty long ago.

Just because we couldn’t do anything about it doesn’t mean we are buying your bull****.

sam, the GOP-E absolutely in promoting Romney and “selecting” him, even when only half of the states have held their primaries.

They are DC Beltway crowd beating the drum for Romney as the inevitable nominee, therefore all resistance must cease.

The people have consistently voted against Romney, yet we are being told everyday that resisitance is futile—he is the one.

So the question remains: If Romney is not getting the majority of primary votes why is he being coronated, and what are we going to do about it?

Newt is the face of this rebellion.Before the afternoon of April 10th, maybe Santorum could have been that face, but for unknown reasons, he has negated all of his hard work and bowed out.

Newt is the last conservative standing, so I am rebelling with him.

I’m sorry he is not perfect, but he is a darn sight beeter than either Romney or Obama.
