I am stopping by the courthouse after work and re-registering as an independent. I can NO longer stomach the Republican "party".

When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

Obama thanks you .... any vote that isn’t for Mitt (like it or not), is a vote for Obama.

So when he wins; you have forfeited your right to bitch about it. All you have done, is dillute the Conservative base from a RINO to Obama’s favor.

I’m sure you feel really good, having a nice temper tantrum; but I suspect your children and grandchildren will be somewhat ashamed at the results.

What took you so long?

I dumped the RINO party a couple of years ago.

Check us out. And by the way, we don’t care what your party registration is. All that matters to us is that you’re a principled conservative.

I’m not divorcing them just yet. But I definitely am having an affair with the Constitution party.

Constitution party’s not perfect, but beats the heck out of the Republicans.

Good for you. Both eyes open, it’s got to stop.

The parties are quite melled now, and without rebellion there is no end.
Romney has proven his own Marxist leanings, affection for perversions and willingness to institutionalize them in exchange for power, and is likely to get more through as a Republican than Obama ever could.

As a Christian, I am all in for voting with an informed conscience and trust in God for the rest.

Any vote for Romney is simply cast out of fear of Obama, and it places trust in Romney who will change nothing. Fear is no way to rodeo.

There is a God. Perhaps He has turned us over to ourselves. In any case we have lost any and all semblance of conservatism and of being a broadly Christian nation, the very foundations of a once great nation and those who represented them are finished.

In the future, I have to consider anyone, conservative or not, who chooses to run as a republican, has the GOP as their first priority and their duty to the people, second.

I’m close to leaving myself. But the closed primary situation and two good senators and a decent governor in my state is what keeps me around. However, there isn’t much to vote for here in the state of Kansas that isn’t general election. The primaries are really for local races mostly. I guess you have to be a member of the GOP to vote in them anyways. But the senate race is generally always going for the republican. Sometimes they get heated in the primary but not often.

In my area the House is a messy situation like the presidential race. So it is always down to a rino or Democrat. I guess we did the best we could up here in Overland Park in 2010. But my candidate lost the primary for the house. It was the western half of the state that pulled the guy I wanted for Senate to victory and he is one of five people in the tea party caucus run By Jim DeMint.

Look I want to leave the GOP but I am not sure to what or to whom and I want to vote in primaries for now the help tea party candidates. But as things go downhill more I will leave. It is really a wait and see for me as to what happens. I want to leave, but I can’t. Keep hearing stories of unaffiliated people not being allowed to vote in the GOP primary. But that is the catch for me. The primary will be meaningless when conservatives start another party or just join something else. But then they would have to start running for congress and local elections.

This thread is full of assholes who demand you vote the way they tell you to vote, or else!

As if either winner will be different from the other. The funniest scare tactic is the claim about supreme court nominees. Neither will nominate anything other than a justice who will finally tip the court into full blown anti American marxism.

All this chatter is moot. This country will never return to prosperity without another civil war, but there are not enough patriots ready, willing and able to actually stand up and do what's right.

It's obvious at this point to anyone who simply examines the situation. It doesn't take a genius.

[09Patriot]

here is the way i see, let obama have it. the gop didnt/doesnt listen to the tea party they havent learned the leason...even if they did the way the fed gov is its unsustainable period..the only one that slightly address the problem is RP and I dont think even HE can fix it. we will have a collapse tom colburn even says his colleagues in both parties know this but are doing jack all to stave spending infact they are expediting it. let obama and the dems collapse it, unless you want to be on the hook for at least 1 million dollars in national debt...or let romney bring it to failure...see if a republican ever gets elected again.

[GOP Poet]

I believe it depends on what state you are in, but here in California if one is registered as an Independent, you can not vote in any other primary other than the Independent candidates primary. So it may be from here on out you will be voting for Ralph Nader against Mumai or something like that if you live in California anyhow.

It basically castrates a person political influence in the two main parties as they no longer have a voters say in the primary.

[buffaloguy]

If you are not going to vote for Romney, I suggest you update your business plans for the headline “Obama Wins!”.

Everyone assumes that he is going to be beaten, I think it will be very close.

[Yaelle]

We don’t cut off our noses to spite our faces.

We work TODAY toward a new, Tea style, conservative party for 2016. It takes years to get such a thing accomplished. Never will we be stuck with RINOs again.

But this doesn’t mean we can’t vote out the antiAmerican commie, even if we replace him with a normal liberal democrat. There is a difference.

[From The Deer Stand]

So who’s the “perfect” conservative candidate? Newt? No. Santorum? No. Palin? No. Those of you who “won’t vote for Romney” are thus willing to let Obama head us to socialism for another four years and possibly pick two lefty liberal marxist Supreme Court judges. But, by not voting you’ll show ‘em, won’t you?

[Old Retired Army Guy]

Does that mean you are voting for Obama or just not voting at all which is also a vote for Obama? Or maybe you are one of those write in or third party guys which is also a vote for Obama. Let’s remember the objective.....BEAT OBAMA!

[Sir Napsalot]

I finally ‘woke up’ from the nightmare from GOP. They’ve taken the “I Won” reeeaaalllly well. Like they always did/do.

The groundswell 9/12 project, the TEA party movement that brought the 2010 ‘victory’ for conservatives. Then what happened? ‘Nice, now go sit in that back row of seats (and wait your term)’ by the nice party elites, and we had them competeing for ‘who’s the nicest guy in DC’.

The usually SC justice pick scare tactic no longer worked on me, it did its jobs for GWB then McCain.

[McGruff]

Ironically I just switched back over from Independent to Republican so I could vote for Newt yesterday. But I can switch again whenever I want to.

[Moonman62]

I am stopping by the courthouse after work and re-registering as an independent.

Where I am I have to tell them no affiliation because there is an Independent party.
