I think Romney could easily be worse for conservatism and worse for our country than four more years of Obama.

I couldn't disagree more, but you do make a very important point about complacency and becoming emotionally invested in Romney and endorsing him as a conservative.

The beauty of creating a philosophy about firing presidents means that, hey, in four years it can be dusted off again.

I'm very much afraid of the message that would be sent if we don't fire 0.

And, that's okay, because we at least understand one another.

If Romney keeps moving to the left in preparation for November, there may come a time when you'll be looking for another candidate. And, maybe, if Romney renounces and sincerely apologizes for Romneycare, and commits himself publicly to getting the federal government completely out of all health care, there may come a time when I can give him a second look.

Anything's possible, I guess, but I think that in his heart, Romney's a liberal.

We all should be more afraid of the message that would be perceived if we elected Romney on a landslide.

Because it would be perceived as a popular mandate for all of Romney's liberalism. Just ask English FReeper gzzimlich what happens when a "conservative" party starts rationalizing abandoning its principles in the name of voting for the "lesser of two evils."
