Jim, I’m not supporting Romney, I’m supporting the notion that politicians can and should change their positions based on the “will” of the people they propose to support.
If people continue to reject Romney because they are not convinced of his change of heart, that’s their decision and might not be a bad one depending on the details and timing of the decision. If a pol changes his position once he can do it twice. Fair enough.
But it simply is a contradiction to demand they “bend to the will of the people” and “listen to us” then also demand they have “unbending” principles.
There are some things I like about Romney and some things I don’t. I’ve never voted for him. However, if he were to win the nomination I would just as I would if it were Sarah, Huckabee, Pawlenty or Demint.
I’ve stated dozens of times on this site my political (as opposed to ideological) principle. Fight like hell for your candidate in the primary and then support who gets the nomination.
That’s my unbending principle, I hope that you respect that even if you disagree with it.
I agree... 100%. Even when I have to hold my nose and shower afterwards like last year with McCain. That was a REAL test of my belief in this concept.
As long as he's already mad, will you ask him why both Ann Coulter and Liz Cheney supported Romney for president? I'll wait in my room.
Well, I’m putting all RINO pushers on notice: Should a big government, constitution trampling, socialist/abortionist liberal RINO political whore like Romney get the GOP nomination I will take it as a declaration of war against conservatism and the constitution by the GOP and will conduct myself accordingly.
