I asked you what your plan was to deal with the consequences of Romney, and you failed entirely to provide one. Instead, you railed:

You guys had your damn chance to defeat Romney fair and square ...

Actually, that is downright false. Plain and simple. Many Republicans were left ONLY with the option of Paul vs Romney when the primary finallly came to our state, and I'll bet even you woudln't vote for Paul over Romney (though I did to lessen Romney's chances in the primary knowing Paul didn't have a showball's chance of getting the nomination). You are woefully naive and ignorant if you think Romney's win of the primary was legit.

Bottom line: your plan is still to tuck tail and surrender to liberalism.

You have ZERO plan for dealing with the consequences.

A wise FReeper elsewhere (I forget his handle) has said that ABOers, if Romney wins, would suffer Buyers' Remorse so ugly that it would make Democrats' regret of Obama look like nothing. You got a plan for that?

Didn't think so.

I've got a plan -- it's called voting for a plurality to weaken the mandate of the guaranteed-to-be-a-statist-liberal winner. It outrages you and provokes emotional outbursts from you. It is what it is.

THAT is Realville. Subscribing to the ol' "Hope he'll change" rationale to support voting for Romney, is diving head-first into Fantasyland.

This is where your argument LOSES all value and credibility. No one is saying Romney will change. We all know Romney is a rino. However, Romney is NOT Obama, and is for the American Ideal. We all recognize the fact the GOPe needs to be mixed up and conservatives need to take control, but voting third party is a vote for Obama. Your logic of "Now's" the time to vote third party because Romney is going to sweep in and win is beyond ludicrous B.S. It doesn't accomplish a friggin thing but help Obama. Although, I will admit it would be hard for even Romney to mess this up after Obama's dismal record.

Here is the SIMPLE current reality. either Romney or Obama will be ELECTED POTUS. Obama is an anti-capitalist, anti-American. Romney is a Capitalist, Pro-American. Which one do you want to be POTUS? If you actually discount this REALITY and want to hang on to your idiotic strategy of "Miracles Do Happen" by screwing around and possibly giving this thing to Obama because Mitt is a rino, then not only are you WRONG...YOU and your ilk are possibly putting the rest of America in danger of more years of downtrodden crap! "Now" most certainly is NOT the time to be messing around and voting for a USELESS third party candidate who wouldn't change a thing other than possibly get Obama elected again.

Who pointed a gun to the head of any of those people and said vote for Romney or Paul? Did the RNC stuff the ballot box with fake vote?

No they did not.

IF you really mean that “ - - - we do NOT want Obama back in the WH - - - “ THEN why do you continue to believe that Marvelous Myopic Mitt Romney can POSSIBLY beat Incumbent Obama?

Just look at the odds:

Romney is campaigning in a monotone, “watch paint dry,” “I do not need your vote” style.

Obama campaigns the exact opposite to Romney.

Romney uses clever little nuances of prep-school style humor, NO memorable campaign slogans, NO short declarative sentences, NO sound-bite quotes, NO step 1-2-3 plans to solve any problem, NO soaring oratory speeches, NO attempt to identify with us in the trenches fighting for our Grandchildren’s futures, NO indication that he would do anything different IN PRINCIPLE from Obama.

Obama remains dedicated to say what each audience wants to hear, and then continues to destroy America.

Romney is a Socialist, with Haaaaaaaaaaaaaarvud-educated young kids as advisors.

Obama is a Communist, with Far Left street-fighter advisors from Chicago and Academia.

Romney is campaigning in his above style as if he is seeking a nomination to be in Obama’s next Cabinet.

Obama is campaigning to keep his job as if this will be his last chance to destroy the America that he and FB Michelle hate so much.

Dream on if you think that being loyal to the RINO Blunder of choosing to endorse the Godfather of Obama”care” to defeat the Father of Obama”care.”

The betrayal of Traitor John Roberts on approving Obama”care” gave the election to Obama.

BTW, the polled voter disapproval of Obama”care” is still 60 %.

To bad for the RINOs and Romney that they chose to lose this election by ignoring the facts, and choosing to lose with another Liberal Republican, again.

A National Election is a terrible thing to lose, but RINOs are getting REALLY good at it!

” - - - - Cruz has a good chance, too!”

Not so.

This will be a VERY poorly publicized runoff election, with the odds of winning going to the party favorite, Dewherst.

If you know of ANYBODY in the Cruz Campaign, have them show some ads!

This is it for the next 6 years!

I could take a dude off the street who believes in America and is not an anti-capitalist and beat Obama. Understand, this the USA and the American people recognize what this charlatan is now and they will vote him out no matter who is running against him. Romney just happens to be the chosen one, so he'll win by default.

What don't you One Trick Ponies understand? This is not complicated nor difficult to comprehend. Obama is Obama's worst enemy in America because people don't like anti-American's like Obama and his ilk.

A National Election is a terrible thing to lose, but RINOs are getting REALLY good at it!

You can not look at this election but one way. Whoever (and we know it will be Romney) runs against Obama is going to give him the smack down he deserves. The American people as a nation are not anti-American, we all know Obama is, and this is what will defeat him.

As I've written previously, Romney doesn't have to do anything but BREATH to beat Obama! Get out of the way and Obama will continue to destroy himself as he's been already doing for four years.

IT'S SIMPLE!

I thought Cruz did not have a prayer because of Dewhurst’s name recognition..I am no election expert but runoffs do not usually draw the numbers..so I am hoping the Cruz supporters are more energized to get out and vote.

That illustrates the bumper sticker depth of philosophy that 95% of those in Rio Linda fall for.

Did you listen to the video ?

Here’s what he said:

Soros says they are identical then Soros details three huge areas where they differ:

1. The crowd they bring with them to the administration what he calls - extremist conservatives.
2. The Supreme Court picks he would make.
3. His cut taxes position.

Transcript:

Soros: “Well look either you’ll have an extremist conservative be it Gingrich or Santorum, in which case I think it will make a big difference which of the two comes in.

Soros: “If it’s between Romney and Obama there isn’t all that much difference except:

The crowd they bring with them.
Romney would have to take Gingrich or Santorum as a Vice president, and probably have some pretty extreme candidates for the Supreme Court, so that’s the down side.”

HOST: “But isn’t there actually quite a big difference between a president Obama and a president Romney when it comes to questions of taxation particularly taxation of the so called 1% and issues like carried interest, do you see any difference there?”

Soros: “That is the big difference and that has lead my hedge fund community to abandon Obama in favor of any republican because they don’t’ like to be taxed.”

I disagree with your stand, but I admire your honesty. You sir are what is called a stand up guy. You have a position and are honest about it, no phony rationalizations. You understand the consequences of your actions and accept them. No voting for third party nobodies, going the full monty. I really mean it, I admire that.

LOL! You're going to give us some Euro-trash Soros tripe to convince us Romney is the same as Obama? This argument is ridiculous!

Obama is anti-American. Romney is Pro-American. One of these two will be POTUS. Who do you want it to be?
