"Mitt should have picked Governor Chris Christie of New Jersey as his running mate. Christie knows how to hit back. I only hope that by 2016 the GOP is smart enough to vote for Governor Christie. If they dont pick him, then they might as well forget about being a national party. They can also forget about guys like me.
There will be no point in allowing Hillary Clinton to pull another phony campaign out of her purse. I will be watching my fellow Republicans. And I dont want to hear from any political moron who demands conservative purity. Those days are long gone. Forget it. And you Republicans also need to forget about identifying yourselves as a certain specific Republican. You dont see the Democrats bifurcate themselves."

I don’t think Christie is right on several important issues either. But I like the guy. I would have given a paycheck to see him debate Obama.

Christie was bland and a disappointment at the Convention. When he went on one of the late night talk shows and mocked Clint Eastwood’s appearance, he was playing into the lefty’s hands. And please: no more Springsteen!

I thought there might be an outside chance that Romney might be tolerable, so I voted for him. I have no such hopes for Christie.

To: USconserv
Someone remind this jackass and all his followers who share his attitude are the people that kept electing compromisers who went ever leftward.
Now that we face the communist in the WH, all ‘we’ have is people that can’t wet their lips fast enough to place on Democrat tail.
The opposite of purity is corruption.
That is a simple fact and no whining by the pussified will change that reality.

Who is your pick for 2016? I know it is early, but I am sure you have given it at least a passing thought. So, elucidate me and others here on who are at top of your list. I know it is not Christie.
My list has McConnell, Scott, Rubio.

(Why is one cell on another planet considered life, and in the womb it is not.)
To: USconserv
Why? What is it with these commentators? Do they not have friends on Facebook? Do they not see the propaganda from the left during the campaign?
No matter how ‘middle of the road’ (read: liberal) the candidate is, he or she will be painted as a drooling religious fundamentalist who seeks to restore life to that of the 1840’s. Blacks on the plantation, women locked up for speaking in public. It is the ultimate in projection: this is how the left would treat the world if they ever could fully gain control.
I seriously saw posts on facebook with people saying that should Mitt Romney win the presidency, he would immediately outlaw abortion. This of the former governor who made RomneyCare and the $50 abortions. Who made it state law that every pharmacy must, upon demand, and without doctor’s prescription give out ‘morning after’ pills.
The guy with a gay campaign manager who would force gays back into the closet. The man who’d ‘force us back into the dark ages’ who wanted his campaign victory speech to be in the heart of liberal country.
At least run a campaign with someone who can articulate the conservative viewpoint, rather than someone who when even slightly challenged in a campaign debate immediately blurts out that he likes big government mandates, that they supposedly work.
Oh, no, let’s instead stop seeking ideological purity and instead choose someone more liberal. I’m sorry, but I don’t think we had anyone more liberal than Mitt Romney running around last election. I suppose we could have drafted the Huckster, or called up Rudy to the bat, but I’m pretty sure neither of them enacted homosexuals calling themselves married.

Who the HELL is Bob Grant? Another stinkin'
"Establishment Republican" ?
Wake up, RINO !
Liberalism is UNACCEPTABLE !
I read
a great article by Sheriff Jim R. Schwiesow, Ret. written February 4, 2011 from "NewsWithViews.com" and here's part of it.
COMPROMISE A DIRTY WORD
Compromise is defined as:A middle way between two extremes
If this is a literally correct definition, and I believe that it is,
what then are we to do when the two extremes at the opposite ends of the plane arethat which is moral
and that which is immoral?
Is it possible that a righteous compromise can be accomplished
when such a compromise, by the very definition of the word, must contain the elements of an extreme that is in and of itself evil or wicked ?
Compromise is as old as humanity;compromise began as a human endeavor to attempt to escape the penalty for the transgression of Gods laws
and to mitigate or contravene the absoluteness of Gods word.
Compromise is mans wayto lessen the seriousness of disobedience to immutable laws and dictums,
or to excuse or condone such disobedience altogether.
No good thing comes from compromise.
Mans accommodation of transgressions by compromise is not a defense for iniquitous acts in the eyes of God.
Compromise is the devils invention;God who is perfect in every way will not be conciliated by the conditions of a compromise.
Compromise was introduced into the lives of men in the Garden of Eden by that serpent of old, Satan,
and will remain with men until the Lord Jesus Christ brings this world to an end - which He will inevitable do - and establishes His Kingdom.
THE FRUITS OF COMPROMISE
Most people have come to believethat compromise is a useful tool
and that the negotiations thereof have brought about good things and useful policies.
If one examines that belief closely it soon becomes apparent thatthere are no useful results that accrue to negotiated compromise on any level.
In fact most oftencompromise actually breeds dissention and strife,which in turn leads to more compromise.
In short compromise feeds upon itself and eats up that which is just and right in the process.
To live in a world of compromise is to live in a world without absolutes,
and yet we know that the entire universe as well as the lives of men are managed, controlled, and kept within irrevocable bounds by the absolutes established by Almighty God.
We violate those bounds, via compromise of any kind, at our peril.
Political negotiations (compromise) in regardto the step down from the safeguarding of the sanctity of life
and from the immutable right granted by God to be defended against being murdered -as set forth in the sixth commandment
- has enabled an American medical assassination machinethat has claimed nearly double the number of lives of the combined number of military and civilian deaths attributable to World War II.
The killing of innocent babies has reached record heights.The lives of twenty-four percent of all unborn babies are delivered into the hands of the serial killers of the medical community.
A baby is murdered every twelve seconds,
and it is estimated that in this country alone there have been ninety-two million living beating hearts stilled by the bloody hands of the legal abortionists.
This conspiracy to commit murder,this aiding and abetting of murder,this disconnect between the forbidden pre-meditated murder of living adults and the sanctioned pre-meditated murder of living babies
has been wrought by a politically mediated compromise betweenthose who claim the right to murder babies
and those who know Gods absolute prohibition of murder.
And there is more.
Now continuing
compromise on morality resulted in the condoning of, and an exponential increase in, the filthy - God condemned - practice of sodomy and promiscuous sex.
For every compromise of Gods word a penalty is exacted.
Aids rapidly achieved endemic proportions, first in the United States and then in the rest world.
We were told that Aids was a disease of monkeys that had migrated to men.
The inventiveness of the scientific community and the political apologizers who defend such appalling and execrable behavior
often find fertile ground in the credulous minds of a spiritually deprived people.
Im not done.
POLITICAL COMPROMISE CONTINUES TO DESTROY THE REPUBLIC
Today as never before in our history the dishonorable who control our social destiny via their political intrigues
subject the nation to a slow death by way of political compromise.
Compromise through ill-conceived trade agreements has destroyed domestic industry and extinguished millions of jobs.
Compromise on sound financial practices has destroyed the housing market, seriously damaged the economy and crippled small businesses.
Compromise on immigration has demolished the social structure, bankrupted state and local governments, critically imperiled national security and jeopardized the safety and well-being of the people.
And compromise on moral integrity has corrupted the youth, encouraged extreme vice and given license to social prurience.
THE BEGINNING OF THE END
In a recent article I wrotethat from this time forwardthe people of this nation will not know a day of peace,
there will be no good news, each bad day will fade into another equally bad day,
and the black and ghostly apparitions of the former will blend with the grim and ghastly tidings of the new.
The Lord has departed from a people that have departed from Him and prostituted themselves before heathen gods,a people who will in the coming days loathe themselves for the evils that they have committed in all of their abominations.
They will surely know that He is the Sovereign God who will carry out His wordto do evil unto them that defy His word and deny His Lordship over all of creation.
As I write this piecethe nation is seized by a 2,000 mile long arctic blast of an unprecedented magnitude;
each season delivers devastation of Biblical proportions.
Tornadoes ravage, floods inundate, conflagrations gobble up thousands of acres of trees and foliage and lumbering mudslides follow in the wake of these,
hurricanes terrify the coasts, and hail, ice, and snow bring cities and towns to a standstill.
Truly the day of the Lord is at hand.
One who reads these words and does NOT understand or relate to that which has been written
can be thought to possess one or more of the following character deficiencies:deep perversion, callous indifference, abysmal illiteracy, or appalling ignorance.
Believers in Gods word knowthat ignorance of a secular kind is directly attributable to a lack of spiritual discernment.
Solomon gives a litany of dangers that await the man who lacks Spiritual discernment:
To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things;Who leave the paths of uprightness,to walk in the ways of darkness;
Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked;Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths:
To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words;Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God.
For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead.
None that go unto her return again,neither take they hold of the paths of life.
That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous.
For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the perfect shall remain in it.But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it.
A modern translation:
"Wicked and perverse men are scattered like land mines across the paths of our lives.
Without discernment we will soon be following them into the dark of destruction.
The adulteress, every mans worse nightmare, will seduce those who cannot see past her beauty and promises.
Behind her attraction lies the steps that descend to hell.
No one who goes to her returns,but how can anyone know this apart from God Himself telling us."
