Agreed + 2.
There are many elements of FR that I disagre with. But at least I speak up and voice my opinion.
To quit and surrender is indicative of a character flaw.
And from what I know... Marty has character. Or at least he is one.
See ya soon Marty...

Have you found another "home" that pleases you more?
If so, what is it?
I've tried "The Right Reasons", but have found it wanting in some major respects.
Good luck to you....and sorry to see you go!

Hope you'll be back.
I have not put all my money on any of the candidates because I don't think any are stellar, but I will vote for whoever gets the nod against Obama. That person with a GOP Congress will get much done whoever it is.

So youre dropping out and quitting just like your boy Perry, not surprised. Oh, take a hike. Perry did what was best for defeating Romney and Obama. You could learn a lesson from him. As some others here could.

To: marty60
You're falling into the same trap as the GOP establishment...letting a few weak links/lurkers make up your mind for you, and frankly...scare you away.
The prime core of conservatism (IMHO) is individualism...if you're looking for "groupthink", you need to go on over to DU and join the lockstep.
There are a lot of fence-sitters and obama lovers around, but if you are secure in your beliefs and committment, you'll stay and fight the good fight.
Personally, I wouldn't trust anyone who agrees with me on everything.
Good luck finding a blog where they all hold hands and sing kumbahyah.
If you're not willing to stand up and fight for your candidate, then you didn't have much faith in him/her to start with...have a nice life standing in the middle of the road.

I agree with the “weak opus” comments.
Just because your flawed candidate is losing out to another flawed candidate doesn’t mean that those who support the latter are compromising their principles any more than you did.
Remember that the most common definition for “true conservative” is “the candidate that I back” — the truth is that your “true conservative” is someone else’s “RINO”.

So Perry’s campaign flopped, your mad and have decided to take your ball and go home? Seriously?
Even if everyone at FR devoted themselves to Perry, he’d still be withdrawing from the race and endorsing Newt today.
There is no way around his inability to communicate. I liked Perry too and hoped he would do well, but it became clear that he simply does not have the communication skills necessary for a national campaign. He may be able to get away with lackluster communications skills in Texas, but not nationally.
Of the remaining options, Newt is the best alternative - and he is the only one who has a chance of denying Romney the nomination. Is he perfect? Heck no. Newt is all kinds of flawed, but he is better than the others and actually has a shot at both winning the nomination and defeating Hussein.

Why are you leaving? I am not following. Don’t succumb to the conquer and divide techniques used by the RATS to cause devisiveness among those who share common ground.

Mitt Romney is Bill Clinton on steroids.
If you think I'm a fool for not voting for Bill Clinton so be it, good bye.
