In a choice between Romney and Obama, there is no contest. We should vote for Romney. Maybe you think it is better to see the country destroyed and turned into a socialist state, but I would rather take my chances in the hope that Romney will help right the ship, then allow Obama to intentionally scuttle her.
There are too many conservatives who actually believe that by letting Obama destroy the country, that it will result in a second revolution, a restoration if you will... but it won’t happen... by the time, the socialists will control your healthcare, they will control your food, they will control communications... Do you really think that Free Republic will still be around? Do you believe for a second that they will allow any sort of organized resistance to form? If you do, then you are a fool. If you can’t stop the train, at least slow it down to buy time...
What makes you think Romney would slow it down? It can't be because of where he claims he stands on the issues because he's lying. Romney will not be accountable to the Republican party as you appear to believe....though he will be deceptive and make them believe so...he's had years of practice at deception and it has worked for him...imagine people on FR are actually considering voting for him....knowing full well he is a deceiver in every way.
Foolish people who believed Obama are also "hopeful" Romney will just not be as bad.....deception works for the uninformed.
That's just the thing, Ray. Romney will never help right our ship. Despite appearances, he's not all that different from Obama. His governing record in Massachusetts is solidly statist liberal.
Screw the talk. Watch the walk. There isn't a single thing in this man's record to indicate that he would be anything but a big government Socialist as president. Excuse me, but if my choices are between Romney and Obama, the only difference I see is their skin color and their bank accounts.
Perhaps Romney will back the accelerator off a couple of mph, but he's not going to change Obama's course.
The next president needs to jam on the brakes with both feet, and yank the wheel hard to the right, to keep us from going off the cliff. Neither Romney or Obama are going to do this. We're doomed if either one of them is elected.
So, let me ask you this -- if and when the car flies over the precipice, which guy do you want behind the wheel?
