Christians have abandoned politics. And millions are DYING because of it.

LOL! Oh so you know me more than myself?

Don't have to. Your tells are showing plainly even to a poor poker player.

[Roman_War_Criminal]

I know!

And now we have 4 more years of Mr. Sociopath in charge because of it. I’m not in any way condoning Romney or any of his stances, I can’t stand the guy to be honest. But a vote for him would’ve better served us CONSERVATIVES than a non-vote. Politics isn’t Religion, sometimes you have to choose the lesser of the evils.

[Roman_War_Criminal]

I assume (or am I going to be an A$$) that you’re conservative since you’re on this site right?

I have no dog in this fight really—all I said was Romney would’ve been better than Obama, then you and your click got all riled up.

Seems we've heard this tune before...somewhere....from other STAUNCH CONSERVATIVES such as yourself.

[Roman_War_Criminal]

Uh-huh...so what do you suggest since we’re all CONSERVATIVES? Or did FR change overnight to something else?

Clique.

You seem to be the one perturbed now.

Oh lord....

Fine! Vote your 3rd parties or stay at home when the next RINO elitist gets selected (you know it’s gonna happen)...and remain bitter LOSERS! Give this country completely over to evil, because that’s exactly what’s happening.

[Roman_War_Criminal]

Thank you ;)

Why would a Christian support a liberal, pro-abortion candidate like Romney anyways

Seems we conservatives have heard this tune before...from CONSERVATIVES and Tea Partiers-more-than-anything.

Don't appreciate the vain expression you led off this post.

[Roman_War_Criminal]

LOL! You too!

Over Obama I did.

The primary reason Christians are losing in the public square is that they do not control the high points in the society: education, mass media, business, and government. I list education first because the ivory tower is the control tower of a society. We have to go back to Reagan to find a President who was not an Ivy League or other elitist college, as an undergraduate or in law school. Since the beginning of the 20th Century, most Presidents have had this background, with few exceptions (Johnson, Truman, Harding). The elite universities have been dominated by secular humanism for over a century. William Buckley declaimed this situation in his first book, "God and Man at Yale" written 60 years ago.

By and large, colleges formed by Christian organizations of various stripes have gone at best to the liberal side of their religion, or more commonly, entirely abandoned any Christian underpinnings. Until the university system collapses due to financial failure or outside competition through remote, on-line learning, the secular humanist grip on the ivory tower will remain.

Why is this important? In the 1980s and 1990s, the Christian Right, led by Jerry Falwell, James Dobson, Pat Robertson, et. al., won significant victories electorally. However, none of the victories were long lived because of the electoral cycle replacing conservatives with liberals (e.g. the 2006 and 2008 elections, the most recent liberal high tide) and the death or retirement of the principal leaders. Of the men listed above, only Robertson tried to groom an heir (Ralph Reed), but he didn't pan out.

I see. You're saying I contacted my clique, perhaps by PM, to come refute you?

I contacted no one.

Romney had no chance to win over enough Democrats, he should have just ran against Obama in the Democrat primary.

Until the hidden oligarchs who choose the candidates for both parties are eliminated from the process, this evil of no actual choice but evil’s worker will continue. That elimination will not happen because those same oligarchs are reaching for the reset button, to bring down the Republic before We The People awaken to our reality. The euphemistically named Federal Reserve was the beginning of the end ...

[Resettozero]

Over Obama I did.

Now we know.

[aimhigh]

The author makes the mistake of thinking the majority of U.S. voters are real Christians. What is the end result of the votes of 200 million sinners?

[GeronL]

You think a conservative should pull the lever for a pro-abortion, pro-homo agenda, pro-gov-health care, pro-amnesty leftist [question mark]

I don’t. I would never vote for that candidate in a million years.

He was a far worse candidate than was McCain and Dole, none of these squishes had a chance. McCain got a huge boost when he picked Sarah for Veep and then his own campaign started attacking her behind the scenes and then he all but endorsed Obama a week or so BEFORE the election.

The GOP is never going to win the White House again until it nominates a real conservative for President.

[MortMan]

I would suggest that withholding one’s vote from an unacceptable candidate is a valid tactic - no matter who starts yelping about it.

I do find it interesting that you appear to claim the mantle of conservatism by reason of your 10 month tenure at Free Republic, despite your expressed opinions (at least on this thread).

Many FReepers have come to this conclusion over the past couple of decades; some sooner than others.

About the Fed: Maybe. But that was an earlier generation's doing that cannot be undone now without fracturing.
