I could “SCREAM” right about now! I need a break from you all. It is too depressing listening to this crap! I can’t stand the thought of the rest of my life
being under this regime we are about to set into place because of the blame game. GET THE HELL OVER IT PEOPLE! I am working my ass off canvassing neighborhoods and talking to people to get them engaged into the arena of ideas, and the very people that I come here to get strength from are acting like its over already. It is over if we throw in the towel and not come up with a strategy. If you don’t want Romney, so be it. But for heavens sake, you are depressing the vote of the Senate and Congress when you play this game. The only way we will beat this thing about to take place is to make sure that if you don’t want Romney, you take charge of the Legislature. Young folks don’t understand that, and when you talk this crap, they just won’t get out of bed. You ask me, “so what, they aren’t on these forums anyway”. True that, but you are in the real world and influence people you come in contact with. I run into people that say they just won’t vote, and I explain why it is important to vote. Stop whining and get up and become a precinct captain or a voter watch dog. Show them that we are not going to lay down and take it.
Now I’m going to work so that I can pay my mortgage since my husband has been layed off. Like I said, this is too depressing for me.

No one I have read has even suggested throwing in the towel, except I contend those throwing in the towel are those who say 'It's Romney or else!'.

We need to think outside the box the Ruling Class oligarchs in the GOP-e and Obama have constructed for us to operate within. Voting for their orchestrated candidate with help from Obama and the Media IS NOT an option.

“The problem isn’t in our liberals, it’s in our selves.”

I agree with this. But I also do blame a few people who either didn’t run, ran badly, or just ran away. And those people are: Mike Pence, Rick Perry, and Tim Pawlenty.

Ok, so what will arrest that increasingly leftward slide of the GOP? Every four years, it`s “You`ve gotta vote for the nominee, because .. gosh.. look at the alternative.” Sooo, we bite that hook in the naive hope the party will right itself.

It`s been the same crap every election since Reagan left office. The estabs beg for conservative votes, only to marginalize them once the voting is a done deal.

It is because we have been delegates, precinct chairmen, state representatives/assembleymen, state senators, county officers, municipal officers, and more that we have experienced the problems of massive vote fraud. Pretending the problem can be overcome by just trying harder to get more votes reaches a point where it become irrational and perpetually self-defeating. This is amply demonstrated by the way in which the McCain Campaign did nothing to officially challenge a number of massive cases of vote fraud during the 2008 Election. Physchiatric physicians often diagonose a mental disorder by observing a patient who fails to recognize that doing the wrong act over and over again results in failure, like walking into the same closed door over and over again. The mentally healthy to do is to recognize the problem, adapt, and overcome. Ignoring the problem does not make it go away, not even for the sake of good morale and getting out the vote. On the contrary, getting out the vote is far more successful when the voter perceives doing so can be expected to produce the desired results.

Making effective change certainly does require securing votes for the legislatures, county offices, and municipal officers. But it also going to require sheriffs intent upon enforcing Constitutional eligibility of Presidential candidates. It is going to require state prosecutors and state representatives who will not countenance unconstitutional acts of the state and Federal governments. Getting out the vote for another Arlen Specter, Orin Hatch, Lugar, Romney, and so forth is a perfect way of NOT getting out the vote. The stench gets so bad, it can no longer be swept underneath a table nor served as a helping of crow atop the table. Their are Constitutional alternatives, but the naysayers are going to have to go back to the fundamentals and get over the idea that participation in illegitimate elections is an effective or solitary means of rectifying the problem.

You are so right. I would never have picked Romney.However, since it appears he is going to be running against Obama, I will vote for him, and try to pick the most conservative candidates from the other races that are still up. I’m certainly hoping that those who say they won’t vote for Romney, and let Obama win will re consider before the elections. We didn’t get in this shape in one election cycle, and we won’t get out of it in one, but we can do irreparable harm by letting a full fledged totalitarian communist have another 4 years. One of the things to remember, if Romney is put in, he will know that going too far too the left as president will surely get him defeated for a second term (hopefully we can find someone more conservative by then.)Obama on the other hand, if he wins another term will show us uncut communism.
Our country needs us like never before!

romney will do nothing to stop the destruction of our Republic... without GOD’s direct intervention... we are already done and finished. mitt is paying people to start fires on FR... this is not in doubt... some have already been purged... and if he has so divided and damaged FR and the Conservative movement... and this too is not in question... read any thread on FR and it becomes clear that we are more divided today than ever before... then what in the world do you think that he will do to America? We need every primary voter remaining to vote against mitt. Most of the others candidate's names will remain on the ballot.

You insist upon voting for Romney because you assert doing otherwise unercuts the efforts to remove Obama from the Office of the President. Yet you ignore the way in which you undercut the efforts of other people who would argue for removing Obama and Romney from the Office of the President. How is perpetually defeating your own ultimate goals helpful or inspiring to others?

There are alternatives. Why not consider them, espeically if Romney’s defeat has already been pre-determined by a rigged election?

Your hope is in vain. We will NEVER consider voting for Romney. In fact, since the GOP-e declared war on Conservatives, I am making it my focus to get as many as I know and preach to, to vote for a staunch Conservative, thwart the machine, and hold their principles intact.

Voting for the Ruling Class GOP-e candidate to supposedly stop Obama in November is as clear a definition of insanity that one can find an illustration of.

The winner of South Carolina didn't even have enough money to run in Michigan. It was only a race between Romney and Santorum, and Romney spent boatloads of cash peddling lies, and half truths to the point he scared off many voters.

This nomination was bought and paid for by big money GOP insiders.

It's McCain all over again—only this time we know what happens when people won't bite the bullet and vote for the GOP nominee—we got Obama.

That is a lie, and you know it. McCain lost because he was an awful candidate. His loss was insured the day he ran back to Washington to vote for TARP.

And by the way, try to understand the difference between principle and petulance.

“We have 4 SC Justices that could retire in 4 years”

How does this sound:
Supreme Court Justice Eric Holder
Supreme Court Justice Kathleen Sebelius
Supreme Court Justice Janet Napolitano
Supreme Court Justice Van Jones
