Virgil Goode!
Goode, not Evil!
I am excited about 0bama being defeated........but no excited about Romney being POTUS.
Election night WILL be a double edged sword.
No mystery - Sarah pulled out.
Romney’s only chance is if Obama does something extremely stupid - which I doubt.
The rest of the election will be like looking at a 1/2 good heavyweight fighter going against the champ. All will get excited for a bit. Then it will be over.

What? He is a carbon copy!
Both political parties are competing for the voters who are dependent on government for their incomes and for preventions against any new private sector competition (anti-family, anti-rights policies).
He loses and we are screwed.Its by design.
I agree with much of the article, and think it is very well written and persuasive. I have to disagree with one line, though:
“The damage done by Obama in the next four years may not be as bad as one or two terms under a slightly less liberal alternative.”
I’ve been as vocal as any here at FR about my opposition to Romney. But I honestly do not think the two would govern the same. The GOP majority in the House and the likely gains in the Senate could keep Romney at least semi-honest. Mitt is not a conservative, and never will be “one of us.” He might, however, be pushed into center-right territory ala H.W. Bush. HW was no Reagan, but I’d take him in a heartbeat right now over Obama.
An Obama 2nd term, by contrast, is going to be pure, unabashed leftism. With no more elections to face, he won’t even try to moderate to his agenda (not that he’s done much of that in his first term, but you get what I mean). The only question will be how much he can be slowed down by Republicans in Congress. I also believe that if Obama is re-elected, Ginsburg and Breyer will step down confident that younger liberals will be nominated to keep the activist presence strong on the court for another generation. I’m not saying there’s a guarantee Romney would nominate better judges (H.W., to continue the example, gave us Souter after all), but that there is at least room to push.
Just MHO, of course.
Some say in the previous election.. that when McCain moved up and Romney quit more then a deal was struck for McCain...but also Romney was promised “His turn” would come as we have seen it play out.... And very interesting is Romney's wife said that very thing not long ago concerning her husband..quote: “It's his turn”.
This idea of anybodies turn seems to evidence there's a line up and it is indeed the GOP who determines whose turn it is from the “regulars’ standing in line...preselected “for the win” payed in full.
It was beyond stunning when Romney declared he would claim his win before the NRC without even remotely having sufficient delegates....and half the states still not voting. But what was more stunning then this was there was zip-zero outcry from any of the politicians that Romney did this.
I realize the move was to prevent a convention which Romney would have serious difficulty debating Newt head on knowing he'd go for the jugular. But Romney wasn't about to let anything or anyone get in his way, ( and neither was his churches powerful leadership).
You can bet the strong-arming came out that nobody in the GOP better object. ..and the Democrats certainly weren't going to since Romney is their ideal to go up against obama, they all have said they could “live with” Romney even if he won over Obama.
Romney never had to present “a plan”....he only had to show up and avoid any questions which would require a straight answer in the debates. All the rest has been scripted for him...and if he gains the Presidency it will be then as well.
Rmoney bump
It is time to stand up against the bullies. Speedy (Obama) or Slowmo (Mitt), the difference isn't just speed. Republicans actually do the work of making government bigger more efficiently.
This is excellent.
BUMP
How many times do they have to lose on this strategy, before they figure out that it's wrong?
The problem with Romney is that he can't beat Obama because he's not different enough. Bob Dull, John Mcsame.. and now Obammney... *sigh*
I'll be voting for Ron Paul in the California primary. It'll probably be the last one ever...
The midterms are so critically important to conservatives, not because it's easier to nominate and get conservatives elected, but because it is our only real chance to dislodge and eject the drones put in by these RINOs in the state parties.
We need concrete goals if we're to take back the GOP. First and foremost, an end to these stupid liberal state primaries as the first ones out of the gate. No open primaries, only solid conservative states to weed out the RINOs and minimize their impact on future primaries in liberal areas. If the state requires an open primary, select delegates through the party convention in the state.
We need to get these money bundlers out and on their rumps. It's ok, they'll bounce back and go work for the liberals - they already agree with most of their agenda anyway. Find all these leeches who take a percentage of donated money and toss them out. Find the media worms who take a percentage of media buys, and toss them out as well. Again, they're just liberals who are trying to sabotage the election, not conservatives who want to push forward a conservative agenda.
You want to bring in ‘minorities’? How about actually treating them like conservatives, instead of liberal voting blocks? Ask Christians of all denominations if they want the liberals planting the seeds of homosexuality in their children's minds in school. Ask them if they want marriage corrupted into a meaningless word, or if they really believe that marriage is as it always has been - a union of a man and a woman. Ask them if they want their daughters being preyed upon by the abortion providers, or teaching that it's just fine to be promiscuous? Here, have some more condoms.
There are vast resources of conservatives in this country, but whenever we attempt to reach out to them, we think of them in liberal manners - we talk Spanish to Hispanics, rather than talking about the value of the family. We hold up token people of color, rather than pointedly ask - the liberals have destroyed your communities, do you really want to let them do it all over again?
Talk about the slavery of welfare. Talk about the millions of children murdered, the generations lost and replaced with pop idols who talk about sex and murder as if these are good things.
Ask seniors if this is really the country they grew up in, the values that their parents held dear.
And consign the media vultures to the trashpit they want to live in.
That's what you do, and that's what we don't do. Romney was anointed as our nominee the day that he conceded to McCain. We had four years to toss out the bums, and instead, we railed about how we can't fix the party. So let's fix it.
Unfortunately, sometimes in life we only get to choose between bad or worse.
+It’s a >Mystery; how can a Loving God give us Romney & Obama as our candidates.
&It’s possible we will see a modern day Jeremiah. (5:1-3)
“Roam the streets of (Washington), look about and observe, Search through her public places, to find even one Who lives uprightly and seeks to be faithful, and I will pardon her!”
“Though they say, “As the Lords lives,” they swear falsely.”
“O Lord, do your eyes not look for honesty? You struck them, but they did not cringe; you laid them low, but they refused correction; They set their faces harder than stone, and refused to return to you.”
Romans1:28-29, “And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God handed them over to their undiscerning mind to do what is improper. They are filled with every form of wickedness, evil, greed, and malice; full of envy, murder, rivalry, treachery, and spite...”
Same-o, same-o = always. Our job is to support Holy Mother our Church = a life of righteousness, prayer, fasting & alms-giving. +Vote wisely.
I’m voting for >anybody but Obama.
Good article, thank you.
I can’t stand Mitt, but I want people like AG Holder along with the Omarxist voted out now.
If Newt can’t be encouraged to hang in there until the primary, I will have to vote ABO.
And Conservatives will stay home in mega-droves 11/06/2012.
