Just my suggestion, but it appears if Romney is going to be stopped once and for all at having a chance at the nomination, it's going to take a grassroots effort.

One last idea. How realistic would it be to bus people into NH for the primary vote to "help" our conservative candidate. Remember, NH has some crazy rules in addition to being an open primary, that all you have to do is "declare" your intention to relocate to the state and they'll let you vote. This strategy was enough to give Hillary the win when Obama had a 10+ lead there. I think if we were successful doing this, you'll pull Romney's "home state" under him.

Are you actually suggesting vote fraud in the forum?

I’ll go to NH

Cain winning there would put a fork in Mitt-for-brains

My suggestion is to make it clear to the establishment GOP that if Romney wins the nomination, the GOP is no different that the Democrat Party and that a third party will now be supported by those who refuse to support either of our current parties.

Sure, a third part won’t win, but it is time to begin that third party who represents the conservative portion of the country, and although it will take several cycles to become the “replacement” for the Republican party, you have to start the process somewhere.

The best way to stop Romney is basically simple: Support a clearly better candidate like Herman Cain. Not another RINO flavor like Rick Perry.

All Cain has to do is make a good showing in New Hampshire. He doesn't have to win it with voter fraud.

The primary nomination will be decided in Florida.

Just curiously, with electronic ballots, how would a person write in a candidate?

I would not worry too much about Romney.

Once the actual primary results start coming in, what has been going on in the media and RINO establishment is going to become abundantly clear.

Romney’s front runner status is going to crash like a house of cards, and the absurd level of media propaganda to choose Obama’s opponent will backfire big time.

I would just say keep good notes on who is propping this guy up, so when Romney crashes, his false prophets will crash with him.

I think the Republican Party, as part of the ruling coalition, is beyond saving.

Romney has been “chosen”, and if he is NOT the nominee I will be amazed.

I’m voting for Gingrich in the NH primary, FWIW.

When Mitt accepts the nomination, remember, I told you so. Hopefully this will all be clear by March so that a new opposition organization can be formed.

I think we are pretty close to settling this, one way or the other. Our current path to communism is unsustainable, and the rate of progress down that slippery slope is too fast for us frogs to miss the boiling of the water. Either we vote out the socialists in a free and fair election, or they steal another election, and things get ugly. I’m hoping for a peaceful solution in which someone like Cain takes the White House with a flood of Tea Party republicans to drive the agenda back to constitutional government so that it doesn’t matter what Cain has in mind. If we don’t repeal ObamaCare and scale back the massive federal government expansion, no later than 2013, I’m not optimistic about the next option being as peaceful as I would prefer.

Romney is just a flash in the pan...
He will not win here in N.H.
Ron Paul is the front runner here because of the Free State Project. He has a lot of followers here but Cain is being brought up by my co workers. Even those who voted for Obama are now paying close attention to Herman Cain.
If he can keep up his plain talking style going I believe he will be the nomination in the primary. Right now he needs contributions to his campaign. I will give every week until he is elected.

The people who support Romney are the same people who voted for McCain. There are millions of RINO voters out there (that’s how RINO’s get elected).

You might think you are damaging Romney with his RINO videos and quotes but what you are really doing is advertising Romney to the millions of RINO voters who are looking for a moderate. If the moderates coalesce around him he’ll follow the path paved by McCain in 2008.

No, FR is fully committed to stopping anyone who has a chance of stopping Romney. Perry, Cain, you name him, we’ll destroy him. Because destruction is what we’re good at.

Assure the outcome of an election!? That sounds like stuff liberals do.

One way to stop Romney is for Rick Santorum and Michelle Bachman to stop tantruming. They spend their time and all their effort attacking everyone but Romney. Basically, they are saying that if they can’t be the conservative nominee, nobody else can. Rick, Michelle, stop, just stop.

(With a Big Mama shake of the head and frown): parksstp, I think you should retract this suggestion and apologize immediately. That strategy may be legal, but it is NOT “cricket!” I hope we at FR are better than that.

Otherwise, your ideas to stop Mittens are sound.

“it’s going to take a grassroots effort”

And the place to do that is with a spontaneous movement of like minded Conservatives in every voting precinct who organize to get out THEIR vote, in the primaries, no matter where and how Romney is spending his money.

Romney can be defeated by a spontaneous mob of ABMs “Anyone But Mitt”, grass roots projectiles of locally organized opposition.

We only need to pass the word and tell everyone to pickup the ball in their own area.

I’ve got a suggestion, how ‘bout getting a life. Cain is going to implode on foreign policy tonight. Perry is too much of a dunce. Romney is the best hope for Republicans to retake the White House. Conservatives will have to keep his feet to the fire like we did with George W. Bush on immigration, Harriett Myers, etc. It’s too bad, I like Cain.

The other candidates need to stop pussyfooting around in debates and attack Mitt for the RINO he is as well. I’ve said this from day one. I feel this will have a quick & immediate impact on Mitt RINO’s polls.

- No one has brought up that RomneyCare supports & pays for abortion with tax money. He has said repeatedly that he is proud of his “healthcare” law. He was unapologetically PRO-Abortion throughout his whole political career, until he wanted to run for President.

“Romney on abortion 2002” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKwVNUz52vo
“Romney on Abortion 1994” http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=UeQGObiGGqY

- No one has brought up Romney’s record of being all for infringing on our 2nd amendment rights.
“Romney on gun control 2002” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKwVNUz52vo

- He’s even openly pushing the hoax that is climate change as real & man-made. Has anyone said anything about it in debates? Or made an ad about it?

“Mitt Romney Believes In Man Made Climate Change” http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/06/03/us-campaign-romney-idUSTRE7525GM20110603

- So many more things can be listed.

For some reason it seems not only the media, but the other candidates as well are afraid to really chip away at this bastard. Even the debate questions have been geared to give Mitt an easy ride to the primaries. Pay close attention to the debate format. The liberal media is shielding their chosen one (Just like they did with Obama in 08.)

Upcoming debates:
Oct 18 on CNN
Dec 10 on ABC
The Iowa caucus is on Jan 3. We don’t have much time.

state by state:
SC, 440,000 voted in 2008 primary. It is tough to influence this now with phoning. People there won’t be focused much until Iowa results.

NH, over 200,000 voted in ‘08. More amenable to grassroots activity, but people there are not getting excited due to the large Romney lead.

Iowa, Mitt needs to be beaten. Only 120,000 participated in 08. Get a verizon unlimited prepay cell phone and change the phone number to an Iowa number. And start phoning. I would phone for Cain.
