Any conservative who votes for other than Romney, and their names shall be known by their posts here on FR.

Proudly so!

I think there’s a certain about of fraud in every election. There are plenty of crooked politicians and have always been.

However, they’ve been mostly fair on average. Its the message and the candidates which are manipulated. Thats why we are stuck with mittens, because certain power brokers decided its his turn.

Of course he’s been working on them non-stop for 6 years at least.

If BO gets elected again there will be no more fair elections. Look what is happening in Wisconsin for a preview.

Romney is a liberal, always has been and always will be.

Voting for Romney would violate my conscience, in exactly the same way that voting for Obama would do so.

And you’re asking me to make my conscience subject to your abject fear of Obama?

LOL...

Don’t bother.

Because my vote is a sacred franchise for which I am accountable to God, not to you.

And I’m not scared nearly as much of Obama as I am of a country full of “conservatives” with no principles left.

And that total abandonment of principle is the first fruits of the Romney candidacy, make no mistake about it. It’s already showing itself throughout the formerly grand old party, especially in Congress.

>>It trust Sarah Palin’s judgement on this.

As well as Dick Cheney’s.<<

Oh geez, me too. And if either of them run, I’m so there.

Hell, 9 out of 10 voters have never heard of Virgil Goode or the Constitution party, and 90% of those who have, would not vote for him anyway.

Definition of insanity is to keep doing the same thing and expect a different result.

So in other words, you never won anything so you just say its not worth fixing. Go it.

No. I won lots of stuff. That's when the GOP long knives come out for conservatives.

If you knew anything about the subject matter we're discussing you would know this.

There isn't the time or the money to gather the numbers and create the clout to pull it off an upset in the Presidential arena.

Congress and the Senate are local and with organized, grassroots involment those elections can have a more conservative victory.

We have the time for organization and preparation to have "clout" in 2016. That is an effort that cannot wait until we're angry at the outcome of the primary season. It must begin November 7, 2012 and continue uninterrupted.

But in 2012 the only viable choices for the WH are Romney or Obama.

We should at least begin to accept the fact that when it comes to ousting Obama from the White House: We must go into this battle with the army we've got. ----

If we choose to spread out our troops and dilute their effectiveness, we will lose this battle completely and that loss will affect all of us for generations.

First link: “I don’t know what the administration is thinking”.

Second: half decent political ad.

Third: “I must say I scratch my head at the capacity of the president to take four hours off on such a regular basis to go golfing”

That’s it? That’s a pit bull?

And I'm sure you'll share your polling data with us, right?

So Cheney, Palin, Rush, Hannity, Newt, Perry, Levin, etc, etc, etc, have all "suppressed reason". Do you really think you know better than ALL of these people?

>>Because my vote is a sacred franchise for which I am accountable to God, not to you.<<

And of course, because you are running for President yourself.

I don’t know about Campaign finance laws and all that but maybe you should be a bit more open when posting threads and reply against your opponents.

Vote 3rd party to keep whichever of the two lying, backstabbing, abortion-supporting, gun-grabbing statists that do win get much less than a majority.

Romney on abortion

Many oh so morally superior conservatives, make for good commie fellow travelers as they assist them to succeed.

He says in a morally superior tone in support of the socialist former governor of Massachusetts.

Seems like even Rush has said any one of the candidates would be better than BO. He had two exceptions as I recall. I think Ron Paul and Huntsman.

Like I said, first three on a Bing search.
Just because the MSM doesn’t report something, doesn’t mean it’s not happening.
