Poor analysis.
>>>”If Romney wins, it doesn’t matter who controls the Congress.”
Huh? Congress passes legislation. A conservative congress will pass conservative legislation. Who’s more likely to sign it, Obama or Romney?
>::” Obama wins with less than 50% of the vote”
THEN it matters less if conservatives control congress, unless you’re pipe dreaming a veto proof majority.
Start with: Remove this regime from power. That’s the primary mission in this election.

You forgot “not voting for Romney is the same as voting for Obama”.
(Severe-conservatives not only have a leftist candidate, they have leftist math skills.)

And under present circumstances, that’s a vote for 0bama.
We’re in one bad predicament.

“Conversely, you could delude yourself into thinking that Romney isn’t as bad as his record clearly shows him to be and spend your time, treasure and energy helping to elect an admitted “progressive” to the presidency.”
Virgil Goode has as much a chance as you have for the presidency.
To: All
I'm not voting for anyone. I am voting AGAINST Obummer. The only effective way I can do that is vote for Romney. And then go home and take a shower...

Have you been paying attention at all for the past 12 years? If Romney wins, he will call the tune and the GOP Congressional leaders will dance to it.
I'm saying that the best we can hope for is divided government and gridlock like we had during the Clinton years which will leave us better positioned for a big win in 2016.

No, it's not. It's a vote for Virgil Goode, the only conservative in the race.

FRiend, alarm bells should go off in your head when you advocate and promote re-electing Obama on here.
When you type those words, an image should pop into your brain. An image something like this:
And then you should delete this post, and quietly... walk.. away.. from.. the.. keyboard.

Did you read what I wrote? The outcome is gridlock from 2012-2014, more conservative Republican gains in the 2014 midterms and a big conservative Republican victory in 2016, riding the anti-Obama lame-duck wave.
This is a medium- to long-term strategy. It's not a pleasant one, mind you. But none of our options are terribly good at this moment.

I don't expect him to win. I expect him to keep Romney from winning, keep Obama under 50%, and energize conservatives to come out and vote for down-ticket conservative Republicans so that the GOP keeps control of the House and gains the Senate.
That's the strategy.

If Romney wins, he will call the tune The legislative is a co-equal branch. Elect conservatives and they write and pass the legislation. Or, as the saying goes, "The President proposes and Congress disposes."
The alternative of the current regime in the executive branch is much worse in all cases.

Hey, nothing would please me more than if Virgil Goode somehow started a grassroots brushfire and swept to victory in November over both Romney and Obama. (And actually, there is one politician who could potentially pull that off, in my opinion.) But I'm not so naive as to think that could happen short of divine intervention (and don't think I'm not praying for it.)
I'm dealing with realities here and frankly, all the realities stink on ice.
Let me ask you this. Setting aside party labels, if you had a choice of leaders between a lazy, ineffective, pampered marxist and a driven, efficient, amoral socialist with a vendetta against conservatives, which would you choose?

You’re right.
I think it’s going to better if 0bama wins. Let’s get it over with and let the whole damned mess collapse.
At least we have the blue prints to build a Republic again.
We’ll have to see what’s left after another 4 years of utter destruction by an evil bastard named 0bama.
