I have to wonder if all the Romney haters on this site were the same people who ran home to mom when they lost at games as kids. I did not vote for Romney in the primaries. If you asked anyone that knows me, they would say I am right of Reagan. What I don't understand is all of you that love this country,which I truly believe you do, that are willing to not vote for Romney and potentially allow this country to fail by re-electing Obama!, how does that make sense?

[COBOL2Java]

Well, we will all be looking forward to the 3 Supreme Court Justices that Obama appoints.

I don’t think anybody is considering the magnitude of Obama’s second term.

If people believe that Political Correctness has run amok, just wait.

If people think that attacks on Religion, worship and God have run amok, just wait.

"You appear to be suffering from a severe case of self-induced Obamahysteria. My prescription for you is to practice this mental exercise: imaginine a lame duck president heavily restrained by a sturdy GOP House and Senate. Either that or drink heavily between now and November - your choice."

Ah, but what you characterize as a ‘sturdy GOP House and Senate’ suddenly becomes wimps and yes men if Romney is int he White House. So how ‘sturdy’ could these mythical GOP representatives actually be if they become linguini spined wehn Obama is evicted? ... Or do you have magic thinking that Romney is actually that capable of herding these ‘sturdy’ men and women?

[CodeToad]

“You on the other hand appear to be voting for him “

Your reading comprehension needs work.

I WILL NOT BE VOTING FOR ROMNEY!!! PERIOD!!!

Just because he is a registered Republican does not mean he is a Republican or a conservative. If the vote was between Democrat Obama and Democrat Romney no Republican would claim to be voting for him, yet, because he has an (R) next to his name people think he is better than Obama. Perhaps in some ways he is, still, as I said during the 1996 and 2008 election, if voting in a President, any President, dooms this country then we are soo weak as to need to vote in that person and let’s get things going while I am still young enough to do something about it and enjoy the results.

I am tired of holding off doom just one more election. I don’t want to be 75 years old and find myself in a nasty situation. I do not see in any way any trend that says voting is going to fix things. I have been voting for 30 years to get things fixed and things only get worse and worse. It is time to try something else because voting isn’t working. Romney isn’t going to make things any better, either.

Absolutely correct. Which is why a Romney win would be more of a disaster than an Obama win. Republicans in the House and Senate would be extremely disinclined to go against the leader of their party, as he drags us further towards our Greek economic destiny.

A Romney Presidency? Hang on, Thelma! Here goes America! Wheee!

[Finny]

Nobody- NOTHING could be worse than the Marxist/Muslim usurper sob sitting in the White House and systematically destroying America.

That is pure, blind hysteria, Pat-08, and it pains me to say it.

We have no choice but to vote for the Republican candidate.

Wrong. We face (unless there's a miracle) no other outcome than seeing either Obama or Romney get the White house, but we have MANY choices of how to vote at the top of the ticket.

Those staying home, doing a write-in or voting third party are helping to keep Omuslim in office.

False, materially and mathematically false. A third party vote favors neither Obama nor Romney. IT'S MATH. Failing to register your vote in the presidential contest serves only to distort the relative percentage win of the victor. It's why I urge every disillusioned conservative to resist the urge to sit it out, and instead resist and stand strong by voting third party in order to weaken the popular mandate of whichever statist, Obama or Romney, wins. Every vote does indeed COUNT, and every third party vote, whether it's a Democrat making it, or an Independent, or a wacko Green Knothead, or a conservative like me, every third party vote will serve to weaken the popular mandate of the next president, who is guaranteed to be an agent of government tyranny no matter whether the Republican or Democrat wins.

We must go to the polls and vote not for Romney but AGAINST Obama.

Voting "against" is a popular sophistry. At any ballot box, ever, you cannot vote "against," you can only vote FOR. Even with propositions, you can only vote FOR passing it, or FOR rejecting it. You may intend your vote to be "against" Obama, but the reality is that it would be FOR Romney.

My vote will be FOR denying a mandate to whichever statist wins.

[MHGinTN]

So you admit that this ‘sturdy’ is an inaccuracy used to tip the scales of reasoning but not reasonable in the final analysis? Got it. About what one expects in these discussions between polarized factions.

[MHGinTN]

Pure sophistry. You are planning to aid and abet democrat vote fraud to win a s they always try in a close election result because they can hide their fraud more easily. And you’re trying to drag many freepers along with your flawed reasoning because it sounds ‘so plausible’ to the casual reader and those with a hate on for the faux melchizedek high priestly Rominy. Be honest, shill, you want us to believe you are more than willing to sacrifice the last days of the Republic in order to punish the GOPe.

[COBOL2Java]

Finny, I’ve been watching FreeRepublic pretty closely, and I have yet to see one regular poster indicate that he or she is NOT going to vote. To submit posts arguing that there are people on FreeRepublic who are going to sit out this election is pure sophistry.

[COBOL2Java]

I’m not sure where our differences lie in the discussion. Do you find fault in my use of the word “sturdy”? Perhaps I should have used “conservative” instead. The point I was trying to make was that a solidly conservative House and Senate would go far towards severely restraining a second Obama term. Had we had that these last two years I think he would have gotten away with a lot less than he did.

[Slings and Arrows]

Would that some posters put as much energy into fighting the Left as they do fighting their fellow FReepers.

[Finny]

Wrong on two counts. Romney's record on judicial appointments is one of activist pro-abortion liberals, mostly Democrats. Roberts was a Bush appointee -- Romney would most assuredly nominate judges to the left of Roberts.

Yes, people have considered the "magnitude" of Obama's second term, but doing it aware of how hysteria and panic have inflated Obama's Oz-like qualities and absolutely ignored the power a Republican/conservative empowered Congress would have to expose and foil Obama Oz. They have ALSO considered the long-term consequences of a Romney win.

[rbmillerjr]

“Romney’s record on judicial appointments is one of activist pro-abortion liberals, mostly Democrats.”

True. But, you didn’t factor in two realities. One, you have to consider the context to Mass. and pressure on Romney to appoint more conservative judges as President. Two, Obama’s will be to the far Left and Radical in comparison to Romney’s picks for SCourt.

“They have ALSO considered the long-term consequences of a Romney win.”

So, you desire a Romney loss and thus an Obama win?

...and you appear unable to delineate between Romney bad and Obama bad. Sort of like the driver swerving to avoid the deer and having a deadly head-on collision with a Mack truck.

LOL. An apt analogy for our election choices in November.

[Ingtar]

The point you are missing is that the group who he had to slip them past all served at his pleasure. It appears that any good judges who slipped in, slipped past Romney as well.

[Servant of the Cross]

... imaginine a lame duck president heavily restrained by a sturdy GOP House and Senate.

First, I hope you are right about the "heavy restraint" of a "sturdy" GOP House and Senate.

Second, imagine a lame duck president using a veto pen to continually strike down the 0bamacare repeals passed by that sane sturdy congress and naming a couple more kagansototmayers.
