No one deserves to be “taught” that “lesson.” Romney is light years better than Obama. But I’m with Rush. I think it will be an electoral blowout for Romney (and would have been for any GOP candidate).

I interpret Rove’s statement as a warning for those who think that Obama will be easy to defeat that they have a fight ahead. That those who want obama out of office don’t dare be comfortable or smug about ‘bho can’t win’ and thus I don’t need to vote or can vote for a 3rd party candidate.

“Yeah; the GOP-e can ALWAYS count on the weak ones to follow their instructions and be at their beck-and-call.’

“Good luck with YOUR choice.”

Sorry, but if Obama wins, whiny A$$, little cry babies like yourself will hold some responsibility. People like you are incredibly selfish. Your guy doesn't win, so you decide to have a little pity party and sit this one out. We are acting like adults dealing with the hand that's been dealt us. What you are doing? Nothing but acting like a little child: “Whaa, Whaa...my candidate didn't didn't win! I'll show them...I'm going to sit this election out! That will show them!”

Good luck with your gutless choice!

It will be a shame if a few hard core anti-Romney voters stay home and end up giving us 4 more years of Obama. Of course if that happens they won’t blame the fact they stayed home; they will do what they always do: blame the candidate.

“I wonder why Rove is doing this now..”

Thanks for posting this. That is my question as well.

In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if some anti-Romney voters vote for Obama just to make sure they can say “SEE”.

Exactly. I wouldn’t doubt a number of those same ones vote for Obama just to make their own case against Romney.

I totally agree with you. Rove is warning that no one that wants Obama defeated can stay out of this fight. We need every vote to defeat Obama and work to destroy the entire Democrat Party. I will not post my feelings or prediction of the November, 2012 POTUS returns. They will be surprising, just like the 1980 Reagan/Carter POTUS race. Romney needs to run scared every day, but....then again, so does Obama!!!

"I'm going to sit this election out!"

I have NEVER sat out an election, and never will while I'm alive.

YOU, the childish one who does as he's told, can live WITHOUT A CONSCIENCE, and just do what you are told, and live with your "CHOICE".

I can live with mine.....I won't vote for a Liberal OR The Messiah.

You're shoveling sh$% against the tide, and are too ignorant to think for yourself.

End of story.

‘Wasn’t Rove plugging for Romney earlier on?’

This story has confused me too. Rove might have been officially neutral, but he certainly wasn’t touting any of the other candidates. We know he is anti-Tea party and the rumors were that he (and all the bush gang) are anti-Perry.

So what gives? Why does he come out with this “analysis” and make his boy look bad?

I actually think Obama is in a good deal of trouble. I think and awful lot of people gave him an awful lot of slack in 2008 and I don’t think he’ll get that again. Plus his base consists of many unreliable voters.

My friend, fear not, the anti-Romney Freeper voters that sit on their hands or vote for Obama are such a tiny group in the overall scheme of things, they have no impact whatsoever. If they did, Romney would not be the nominee.

So....be pragamatic & real, if they won’t join in the fight to defeat Obama, let them wallow in their worthless rants and raves. Remember the old saying we used to say as kids. “Sticks & stones make break my bones but ranting, raving words will never harm me”. Onward to victory. The future of your children and America is at stake. ANYBODY BUT OBAMA.

FWIW PA and OH stand a good chance of going R if the fraud can be contained.

Quit your $itchin' about those of us who Despise Romney ...


Just foward your complaints about "the way it all turned-out" to Willard's Super-PAC that spent over $ 12 million "carbet-bombong" Newt in Florida ... by a NEGATIVE SCORCHED-EARTH ad ratio of 65 to one ...


They made their deal with Satan (whom Romney claims is Jesus Christ's brother) ...


Let 'em all burn ...


Willard has some "extremely bad karma" to deal with ...

If it were a matter of a “few” of us not voting for romney... we would be of no consequence... and you would not be discussing us... but were are of consequence and we are not going to vote for romney. We warned the gop/e in 2007/8 and we warned loudly and constantly. reince preibus and the rnc conspired with Secretaries of State to keep mitt's competition off the ballot in states like Virginia... they manipulated the primaries in certain states to allow dims to play havoc in our primary and the played loose and fee with the electors. This and romney the baby killing, gun grabbing socialist spent 45 million dollars doing to Newt and Rick what he refuses to ever do to obama.
