I’m with you and don’t care about getting flamed.
I wonder, if Romney somehow becomes the Republican candidate opposing Commander Zero, we are to stay home and not vote? As a protest or something? Or vote for a third party candidate?
If Palin runs, I wonder if she will spin her anti-abortion stance, to try to appeal to a majority. I’ll bet she does. Will she then be persona non grata too?
Romney did some good things as Governor of Massachusetts, like advocate for the income tax rate reduction, balance the budget, and build up a good rainy day reserve. He authorized state police to arrest illegals, but his successor Deval Patrick (Obama lite), reversed the orders on taking office.
If Romney had run in Mass as an anti-abortion candidate, he’d have had no chance. So he spins, like most politicians do. I think its better to talk about who the most conservative, best candidate is, and discuss Romney’s shortcomings, rather than banish people who aren’t “conservative” enough.
You cannot find a more passionate, more convincing, more sincere advocate of abortion among any Republicans, care to see the videos? Mitt also did fund raising for Planned Parenthood.
Why did Mitt Romney leave the Republican party in the 1980s in protest of President Reagan's conservatism, in 1992 before he decided to return to the GOP, why was all of Romney's fund raising efforts, and political donations directed to liberal Democratic candidates?
Sadly, I think the answer would be yes.
FReepers would take a moral stand and ensure election of an even worse candidate, with gawd-awful democrat punitive tax policies, anti-business regulations, anti-religion administrative over-lays and biases, anti-personal freedoms, anti-civil liberties and pro-socialist agendas.
But hey, at least they didn't back a pro-abortion candidate.
Their moral stand would not save one innocent life from being aborted. Not one. And would cost the American people in terms of freedom, liberty and ensure continuation (and expanded) abortion “rights.”
