Apparently the owner of the democrat party says the only difference in Obama and Romney is the ‘crowd’ they bring with them.
“Well, look, either you’ll have an extremist conservative, be it Gingrich or Santorum, in which case I think it will make a big difference which of the two comes in,” he told Chrystia Freeland of Reuters in a videotaped interview. “If it’s between Obama and Romney, there isn’t all that much difference except for the crowd that they bring with them.”
I don't think we can. Like Scotland Yard, the Republican establishment always gets its man. Why? because all our little primary voters seem to know is whose "turn it is."
ALL IN
I will never vote for Romney nor will my family and the usual trick of putting someone like Sarah on the ticket won’t work either this time.
The RNC, establishment, FOX, Drudge have all over played their hand in their disgusting biased attacks .
The RNC thinks we’ll just vote because we hate obama.
FOX thinks that we will still watch them once they have done their damage and they pull back.
NO MORE.
FOX had on a woman from the Bush years named Dee Dee and she said that Newt shops at Tiffany’s, he is the insider and elitist and he has non chance of beating obama.
Shen then goes onto say Romney is better a person, he can beat obama, he was a business man.
Basically telling us conservatives sit down shut up and you vote for who we want because you lot are too dumb to think and we decide who the nominee is not you.
Romney has ran to the left of Kennedy in MA, has voted for Dems, given money to Dems and has done nothing, NOTHING for the republican party and when asked what have you done for the conservative cause he answers
“I got married, had children and went into private business”
WTH and the fox, Drudge, much of talk radio ignore this pathetic attempt of an answer .
If anyone knows anyone in this state of FL please convince them to vote for Newt.
One person getting 10 votes, thus those 10 getting another ten can help Newt and defeat this elitist establishment

I’ve asked once before and now I’ll ask again:
I’m NOT voting for Romney(doesn’t MEAN I’m not Voting).
Will I be blamed for Obama being re-elected?
It's time to write off the GOP. They are the Liberal Party while the Democrats are the Communist party.
We need a REAL Conservative Party and if the GOP nominates Willard, go TEA PARTY as a national party.
To all those who whine, "But this will guarantee four more years of Oblahblah!" I say, what's the difference? A white Mormon leftist will be no different from a black Muslim leftist.
If it's not too much trouble, though, please replace the picture of the “Culpeper Minutemen” flag with one of a flag which does not misspell the word “Culpeper”.
There are several flag makers out there who spell the name of my County incorrectly, but there are also a few who spell it correctly.
They nominate Romney at their peril. Down-ticket races will suffer. We’ll lose the House and forget about taking the Senate. Romney is a disaster.
Personal *ping* !

The Democrat and Republican parties together have come to be a new Monarchy. They play at fighting each other over principles, and at mouthing platitudes to slake their constituencies, but neither one looks for or wants a knockout. They share power knowing that the ebb and flow of public opinion will deliver the lion’s share to each in turn.
The game is rigged.
The bottom line is Mittens is unelectable.
The GOP and their hit people in the media have decided romney is THEIR choice and if anyone goes against them, they will be destroyed. They cheated Rick Santorum out of his momentum and only gave him Iowa after a caucus worker went to the media and told them romney only had 2 votes in that county not 22. Now they expect us to believe 8 counties “lost” all their ballots and they still don't know who won them. I'm sure they will turn up when romney needs them to win. They pushed mccain on us last time and the only reason many people voted for him was because of Sarah. So this is our future with the RNC, they pick our president and they throw us a bone by giving us a conservative VP. We keep moving left with the nominees as we watch leftist countries like Greece self-destruct? Romney has shown he will do anything to anyone who gets in his way-Alinsky tactics. How are these people different then Obama?
Election officials were mystified Thursday as to how Iowa caucus results from two North Iowa counties were not accounted for in the certified results. State Republican party officials announced the certified results of the Jan. 3 caucuses showed former Pennsylvania senator Rick Santorum with a 34-vote edge over former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney. Original results showed Romney as the winner by eight votes. State party officials said they did not have totals from eight precincts, including Ward 2, precinct 3 in northwest Mason City and Geneva/Reeve in Franklin County. John Rowe, Cerro Gordo County Republican chairman, said he did not know how the Mason City precinct totals were missing and didn’t want to point any fingers. “What is missing is Form E which is a signed copy of the vote totals that were phoned in on caucus night,” he said. “I sent in a foot-tall box full of forms from Cerro Gordo County for certification. There were two Form A’s, Form B, Form C, Form D and Form E from each precinct and there was other required paperwork as well. “Out of all the forms we were required to send in, Form E is the only one that wasn’t in triplicate,” said Rowe. “It’s unfortunate. It was probably a human error on one end or the other. I don’t like it being described as a `missing precinct.’ This was a very transparent process.” Rowe said there are more than 1,700 precincts in the state and only eight were unaccounted for in the final tabulation. “If my son took a physics test and got 99 percent, we’d be slapping him on the back,” he said. Karen Zander, Republican chairwoman in Franklin County, said she doesn’t know how one of her precincts was unaccounted for. She said there were 19 voters in the precinct. Bill Schickel of Mason City, vice chairman of the state Republican party, agreed. “The precinct totals would not have changed the outcome of the election,” he said. “This is a volunteer, grassroots-driven process. I feel badly that some precinct results were not certified. “There is no perfect election. But having eight precincts uncertified out of more than 1,700 is a better certification rate than ever before,” he said. “We’re not perfect. But this wasn’t anything like other states have had, like the ‘dangling chads’ in Florida.” – John Skipper, Mason City Globe-Gazette Election officials were mystified Thursday as to how Iowa caucus results from two North Iowa counties were not accounted for in the certified results.

The numbers he referenced as accurate earlier today are those sworn in the affidavit by Moulton resident Edward True. Mitt Romney received 20 fewer votes than are reported from a Moulton precinct in numbers posted by the Republican Party of Iowa, the Appanoose County GOP chairman said today. The final vote between Iowa caucuses winner Mitt Romney was eight ahead of Rick Santorum. “We stand by the figures that were presented by the Moulton precinct caucus,” said Lyle Brinegar, chairman of the Appanoose County GOP. Matt Strawn, chairman of the Republican Party of Iowa, continued to express confidence Friday that the order of finish will not change. He said the party would make no further comment until its two-week vote certification process is complete. Moulton resident Edward True has signed an affidavit saying that he helped count the vote at the Garrett Memorial Library in Moulton and that the precinct had two votes for Romney, not 22, as reported online by the state GOP. Brinegar says True is correct. “I’m not disputing what Ed True said,” Brinegar said. Appanoose County has 12 caucus precincts. All but two had no votes or single-digit votes for Romney, while one had 20 votes and the Moulton site reported 22. Drake University political science professor Dennis Goldford said the results – even if the certification reveals a different answer – will change little other than bragging rights. Santorum, who for months remained in the single digits in polls, wildly beat expectations, and that is the real story, Goldford said. The caucuses don’t result in an actual election, so there’s no additional harm done in terms of having to eject a candidate from a position, Goldford noted. However, there is potential for long-term consequences regarding the credibility of the Iowa caucuses, Goldford warned. “It reinforces the view from other states that the Iowa caucuses are this unreliable, amateurish event,” Goldford said.

McCain wasn’t enough?
The same holds true even if Romney is not nominated!!!
A good read.
I’m a Santorum supporter, but no one is forcing Romney on us. It’s a nominating process, we get a chance to vote. For every coulter pushing for Mitt, there is a Levin or Rush pushing for Newt. I understand being 100% for your guy during the primary process but if, if Mitt is the nominee and you say there’s no difference between Romney and Obama you’re either not paying attention or are stubborn and butthurt.
Who do you mean by “they”? Primary voters? If “they” are successful in getting Romney as the nominee?
What method would you prefer to be utilized to pick the GOP nominee if not by votes in primaries?
