But it looks like that is exactly what Romney is trying to do.
romney is a rino. He is the father of socialist medicine. He is a checkered pants country club Rino . Yes he is better than obama but we must teach these Rockefeller republicrats that they are finished and to get out of our party ,so Ryan or no Ryan I’m fishing.
Chuck Todd live on MSNBC now reporting - sources indicate Romney will announce Rep. Paul Ryan as VP pick at 9am”
How can we do it though? The Tea Party is picking up momentum I think. I just pray it won’t be to late.

He wins with our vote or not.
Its not about him.
It's about telling obama to kiss our collective behinds.
I'll vote Romney for that alone - regardless of what he does.
Get real people! We don't want Romney, but we don't want obama more.
Geez!
Or just stay home and feel good about your friggin’ conscience..
Whatever, but it's not about Romney - He knows it, we know it, he knows we know it - who the frig cares?
Throw the kenyan out!
He likes the Dewey strategy...
Mclame all over again.
Why don’t all of you wimps sign on with Obie ? He’s tried to “kill Romney” early before Mitt can spend any money and has barely made a dent.
Go call your mommy
The problem is that Romney will essentially be as incompetent and socialist as Obama, except now he’ll have an (R) by his name as he fails. Thus we will have at least 4 years of mediocre Romney, a collapse of the economy, possibly a world war, and Mittens has guys like Kagan on his team, whose book is read by the Obama administration and recommended by it, as it (the book) foresees a world of “Muslim Democracy” that we should welcome and encourage. (Kagan actually rebuked Glenn Beck for predicting the arab spring like in Egypt would lead to radical islamist governments.) He has other guys on his team who are Keynesians, typical RINOs and goobers who hate conservatives and even actively worked to destroy them (Sarah Palin being one of their attempted victims). And then add in the fact that Mittens doesn’t even have an actual economic plan, but thinks “repealing and REPLACING” ObamaCare with RomneyCare is going to change anything, even though we have 16 trillion in debt due to entitlements he won’t even touch.
Let’s face it. It’s all a game. None of these people have any balls, and they are committed progressives but just won’t admit it. Sure, they’ll play the game come election time, but they’ll screw us the way they always have when it comes to crunch time. And so the great economic collapse will happen under Romney, and the Dems will take over again after Mittens. And to top it off, Mittens will probably happily sign a “comprehensive immigration reform” bill before he leaves office, permanently Europeanizing the United States into a country where we have far left commies and a little less left socialists all utterly committed to the welfare state. Meanwhile, people like Palin or Paul Ryan will be gimmicks and props in the hands of the GOPe to shake at us when we get out of line, only to insure their proposed reforms are stripped of anything important and/or cannot pass. Just like how the House voted to repeal ObamaCare, knowing it wouldn’t pass, but then quietly didn’t vote to defund it.
Just because I see both Obama and Romney in the same socialist light doesn’t make me a wimp, just makes me discerning.
Don’t listen to marygonzo with her oh lets all just stay home. She is looking like a troll posting on every thread stating she is staying home and that others should do the same.
Looks like a premeditated plant to rouse the base. IGNORE
He is set to name a V.P. If it is Ryan, as has been reported, he brings a vast amount of Right Wing Tea party Conservatives into line, particularly when it comes to economics and budget philosophy. That takes care of a vast majority of the base and energizes the Party.
I think he is timing his attacks very well. If he can dominate the news and avoid too much negative about Ryan he will slide into and out of the convention in good shape.
It is Romney's to lose. Obama has already lost because his policies have failed and he offers nothing new. If Romney looks like a viable president and comes off as competent, He will win.
He only needs enough votes to get 50% + 1 and 270 electoral votes.
Hope you feel better now.
Romney is the only alternative to a non-natural born Marxist. If you can’t make that work for you, ok I guess.
McCain isn’t on the ballot, neither is Dole. Anybody bu Obama has always been #1 for me.
Keep your powder dry.
The time to strike hasn't come yet.
Patience, patience, patience.
We are ALL sick to the teeth of 0m0slem. Wait till he's locked in and not replaceable. Then watch the destruction.
Say what you want, but facts are facts, Romney is a man of great accomplishments in business. He did many great things in business and is a very pragmatic business person.
We should all have been so lucky to have invested in the ground floor of Bain. A $1,000 investment in Bain at its’ inception would be worth over $20,000,000 today. Look it up. He is that successful in business. If he is 10% as successful in the Presidency, he could possibly save the country. It absolutely needs saving! Since inception it has invested in or acquired hundreds of companies including AMC Entertainment, Aspen Education Group, Brookstone, Burger King, Burlington Coat Factory, Clear Channel Communications, Domino's Pizza, DoubleClick, Dunkin' Donuts, D&M Holdings, Guitar Center, Hospital Corporation of America (HCA), Sealy, The Sports Authority, Staples, Toys "R" Us, Warner Music Group and The Weather Channel. Pretty astounding winners list!.
He is certainly not my first choice, but he is certainly not Obama either. Obama hasn't run anything but his mouth in his whole life. You can not legitimately compare Romney and Obama and come to believe that they are the same. They just aren't!
“Say what you want, but facts are facts, Romney is a man of great accomplishments in business. He did many great things in business and is a very pragmatic business person.”
That may be why he ran Massachusetts into the ground. Well, to be fair, it is perpetually running into the ground because of progressives like Mitt. It was third from the bottom in terms of business growth, and Mittens endorsed and created stuff like RomneyCare or cap and trade, which shows that whatever “success” he had in business didn’t translate to actual experience and knowledge.
Right now we quit waiting for someone to be the end all be all of conservative politics.
We either let the kenyan take our country or let the rino try and take it.
We need to get over our impotence.
We bitch about the rinos placed before us like we have no choice because of friggin Iowa or whatever State it is that chooses our candidate.
Our forefathers asked Washington to be King - he refused, but became our first president.
Because we are already screwed (you know it, I know it). We need to quit being a bunch of babies and friggin’ ASK someone to be our leader.
So, this election, we are screwed, Romney-Bad, Obama-Worse than bad.
Our Country is going to hell in a hand basket that we have helped design. We have believed that our morals and righteousness would prevail. Can't everyone see the wrongness that is going on?
We are giving too much credit to the prevailing MeMe.
If we want to win WE must choose the contender, support him/her, build them up within the next four years.
We must all AGREE on a person. Quit quibbling about social issues and put the country into consideration.
Put aside the everything that is not about country and support a candidate - a candidate of our choosing.
OK, in wildest imaginings:
WTP (We The People) Rush, we'd like you to be president because you think as we do.
Rush: No way, I'm just a talk show host.
WTP: But Rush, you got it together.
Rush: Well, I'm flattered, but that does not make me presidential material.
WTP: OK. Who do you suggest then?
Rush: No one! What's wrong with you? Do it yourselves!
So we do. Because Rush was never viable in the first place, that was just an example.
My first nomination? Thomas Sowell.
Who would be your pick, and when we agree, shouldn't we ask?
