I am so tired of hearing what's wrong with our guys. Romney's a RINO. Newt slept with Nancy, and a bunch of others I guess. Santorum has no support. Paul is wacko. Cain was too black, so he had to be destroyed I guess. Palin is a supposed idiot, or she doesn't want to run.
It's all so boring and depressing that I barely listen to Rush any more. I don't care whether he endorses someone, or not.
The country is still going to hell in a handbasket. The usurping communist is still in the White House. Reid is still the Senate Majority Leader. Pelosi even gets more attention from the MSM than Boehner does. Moochelle is still getting fancy chocolates overnighted to wherever she goes.
Please! Let's get back to stressing whatever is good about our people, or not saying anything at all about them. Bickering and negativism just serve to increase Obama's popularity. He DESERVES to be the target.

I’m with you. I’m pretty sure WE’VE done an outstanding job guaranteeing Barack the Kenyan a second term. Who in their right mind would want to vote for any of the scumbags we’re putting up?
Case closed, Romney is the GOP only hope.
I don't need no stinkin' party, I just have to decide on a good write-in for POTUS if RINO Romney is the chosen one.

Sorry. Request denied. The process is called politics as usual. It’s a dirty business, but even the candidates play by these rules. Mitt, Newt, whoever.
WELL SAID!
Those who blame Conservatives for The Messiah's re-election because they REFUSED TO ACCEPT ANOTHER RINO FROM THE RNC are NOT TO BLAME!
We are sick and tired of the RNC putting up crap Liberal Candidates, and the State-Run-Media running 24/7 promo's for them for 4 years between Elections.
If there's no Conservative candidate, they don't get my vote. END OF STORY.
I’m sorry, but I don’t understand what you mean by the phrase “our guys”. Are you conservative first or party-first?
I don't think you are with me, unless you look at scumbag as a relative term. None of these supposed scumbags is a person with a made up life history who only has communists and criminals for friends, and loathes the United States and everything about our history.

Every candidate but Newt was secretly working for Romney. LOL
Ever seen this ?
“Welcome to Free Republic, America’s exclusive site for God, Family, Country, Life & Liberty conservatives!”
Let’s suppose this actually describes the most typical and ‘vocal’ denizens of this here site.
How is it you’re surprised that they are largely unimpressed or opposed to the so-called ‘candidates’ parading around trying to impersonate a potential President ?
NONE of those you enumerated above seem to have made the cut, yet, as credible or convincing Standard Bearers for who and what we are or aspire to be — at least for the overwhelming majority of us.
“Let’s get back to stressing whatever is good about our people, or not saying anything at all about them.”
To suggest it is somehow unwholesome, inappropriate or simply ‘bad form’ to criticize them is remarkably obtuse, at the very least.
WHY bother holding primaries or elections if you aren’t weighing the merits of the ‘candidates’ and discarding those that do not serve our needs or ends ? And how do you DO that without expressing what’s wrong with ‘em and why they don’t make the grade ?
Granted, it would certainly dampen the noise down, considerably, but it would ALSO reduce the ‘light’ level, too, doanchaknow ?

What I mean is someone who will at least pander to us, and is an American.

Well, maybe I should have put scumbags in quotes. We (conservatives and Republicans)have trashed and smeared every one of our candidates. The DemocRATS haven’t even put their gloves and climbed int he ring yet and our guys are done. (IMHO) We’ve given the Billion Dollar Man all of the ammunition he needs for his campaign ads.
I’m old enough to not hold my nose any more, and so I shan’t. I’ve been through all the stages of loss and am happy to be happy. We have enjoyed the easiest existence ever experienced by man...and listen to us bitch. I guess that’s who we are. Be happy and worry all you want.
If you mean "us conservatives" then there is at least a reasonable case against each of those candidates even being a fellow conservative. In some conservative eyes there are no conservatives running for president this year.
If you mean "us Republicans" then you have only the GOP to blame. And not because they are supposedly cramming a RINO down our throats, but because they allowed anyone besides a single pre-picked candidate to run at all.
The GOP should have had enough control to decide who they wanted to represent them this election cycle and done whatever was necessary to keep every other potential candidate from running. The fact that they allowed a gaggle of candidates to run, some who turned out to be complete jokes, is their own fault.
We as Americans might like the fact that we get a choice, and that is great, but the GOP is a private organization. It has a reputation to defend. It is going to go up against a candidate that is unopposed in the primary. Why does it want so much money being flushed down the drain during a primary fight where all that is happening is the generation of free opposition research for Obama?
The GOP is now officially too big a tent. It wants to be all things to all the people who agree on only two things: let us keep our unregistered guns and keep our taxes low.
The GOP is a laughingstock. The current primary process does not help conservatives, because the only people who listen to the GOP are potential candidates similar to their chosen one. That is why Pawlenty got out. That is why Christie and Daniels never got in.
From now until the end of time (or the end of the GOP) there will be one RINO vs a bunch of conservatives who will split the conservative vote. The RINO will get the nod, but only after having to move so far right that he is no longer acceptable to independents.
We need a two-pronged attack:
1. Help to establish the Green Party as an official party by giving them over 5% of the presidential vote in the next cycle. This will split the liberal/socialist vote.
2. Help to establish a viable national conservative party. Work with the Republicans when they are sufficiently conservative, and pull our support when they drift too far left.
I know that there are people who don't like the multiparty systems they have in Europe and Israel, but the smaller parties do get concessions on issues important to them. For example, there wouldn't be as many Israeli settlements as there are if Israel were a two-party democracy IMHO.
It’s depressing. I’ve also become less and less interested in listening to my favorite radio pundits, and am beginning to slack quite a bit on my postings to FR.
One can only stand so much disappointment with how our side is conducting what should be an all-out assault against the enemies of liberty and freedom.
It’s as though we Tea Party, patriotic, Constitution upholding, liberty loving, God-fearing Americans have been zotted by the body politic.
I nearly want to wash my hands of the ‘system’, and prepare for Revolution II.
From the looks of things, Pal, I've been seeing it for seven more years than you have. While you're worried about getting everything you want I'm worried about getting some more Sotomayors and Kagans on the Court. I'm worried about someone who would veto anything a Republican Congress sent to him. I'm worried about more czars and recess appointments. I could go on.

I was going to post a LOL back but it is not really funny.It is sad.

Yeah, probably berry-0 will be re-elected. : (
(Unless s0r0s wants him replaced.)
Dude, they all suck. The GOP died when Reagan left office. The two Bushes buried it.
What on earth gives you reason to think Romney will ever give conservatives the time of day? Right now he is working hard to ignore us entirely. If he doesn't think we are worth any of his time now, why would he bother with us later?
Romney is not just a RINO. He is Obama, the White version. Go back to your friends at the DNC, I mean RNC and tell them no deal. There is no way I will ever vote for that secret socialist.
