“An Obama re-election may mean America is finished. Stark choice. Focus people.”
As I and others keep telling you. The “stark choice” isn’t there. Romney is NO better, and could be worse in many ways as pointed out by others here.
Also, since you like “facing facts.” Romney, among Republicans, seems to either induce extreme revulsion (like in my case) or apathy. He will not win in a general election because the base of the party won’t vote for him...even against Obama. Many are considering not voting or voting third party. Those that actually “like and support” him actively, are a minority (mainly Anne Coulter who I suspect wants to be one of his wives!).
At best he may get passive support. That isn’t enough to overcome Obama. He is toast before he even starts. Also, I’m afraid that his “ho-hum” reception will hurt conservative Republicans running for the House and Senate.
The man is a disaster. I don’t know how anyone can stomach even passive support. However, I do know that an “Anybody but Obama” support is not enough to win. That “stark contrast” you mentioned really needs to exist....it doesn’t with Romney. His candidancy will result in the most lopsized loss by the GOP ever.
What are the alternatives? To actively oppose him now and continue to do so....force the RNC to reform. Romney is going to lose anyway. Conservatives MUST get control of the RNC or we need to refuse to back there picks. We are not dumb sheep.
Time for a serious revolution.
I agree with everything you say here.
