As to their age, I will take Romney’s 65 years over Obama’s 51 years of chain smoking, buttsex and coke abuse.

My own reasons:

1: RINOmney is a vapid dork.
2: Why get Obama lite when I could get the whole smelly package? Or...the smelly hole...package?

To repeat:

I do not like Mittens on the sheet.
I think his brains are concrete.

I will not vote for him, he’s left and right
Mainly because he’s just not bright.

I will not vote for the vapid hack
I do not care if he’s got a Cadillac.

No fan I am of that RINO pile
He’ll change three times if you wait a while.

If I want someone without merit,
I’ll simply vote for the Muslim ferret.

Traditionally, a nominee appeals to his Party’s base during the primaries and then runs to the center during the general election. McCain violated that rule and had to defend both his right flank and his left flank at the same time. Romney would have to do the same.

I believe that Romney is a social moderate at best, and probably a social liberal. But let’s assume that he is actually a social conservative who has donned a cloak of liberalness. Even if that were so, he would still have to run to the right in the general election to convince the right wing to support him.

Santorum would not have that problem. He could concentrate on the middle. The right wing would understand who he is and what he is trying to do, and most would stick with him. Santorum could wage a one-front war during the general election. Romney would have to futilly attempt to wage a two-front war.

Romney can beat Obama. So can Rick or Newt. Or Bachmann. Or Cain. Or Trump. Or Palin. Or Jeb.

The general election will be a referendum on Obama. With those approval ratings, jobless numbers, and gas prices ... he could run against an empty chair and lose.

Also... the liberals voting for him today will NOT be voting for him in the general election. Combine that burden with an uninspired conservative base and you have another McCain disaster.

The ONLY difference I see between Mitt and the polished turd in the WH is Mitt does not hate the USA. Obomination does hate this country, our constitution and will continue to apologize for our success whenever possible. BO is doing as much as possible, without declaring war on us, to destroy this country and we are letting him get away with it.

“Electability” critics of Romney have to believe that a majority of American voters are hardworking social conservatives, church going and well-informed voters. Unfortunately they are not.

Sorry, but many of you reasons are true no matter who runs. So, you don’t like Romney, I don’t either. This is how I see it.

Obama starts with about 47% of the vote wrapped up. He needs to move the dial about 3 or 4 points.

However we nominate starts with about 44% of the vote wrapped up. We will need to move the dial about 6 to 7 points.

Before anyone gets depressed, this is actually a good place to be against a setting president.

The question then is who can move the dial? My vote: Newt Gingrich. Mitt is dangerous and Rick is either not ready or will never be ready. I can’t decide.

This goes as far as Romney’s VP choice. I believe that Romney will pick Susana Martinez falsely believing that he needs to pick a moderate woman who is Hispanic of Mexican descent. However, this tactic will still not work for Romney, and it will bring down Martinez in 2014.

I believe that if Romney is at the top of the ticket, that the GOP will lose the House and 4 Senate seats (including Snowe’s and Liberman’s.)

Any of the remaining 4 GOP candidates beat Obama in 2012.

Reasons Obama will lose in 2012:

a. McCain wins in 2008 if only 3% of those who voted would have switched. In 2012 it is a matter of getting those 3%

b. That 3% will come from...millions who have been laid off
and can’t find jobs, more millions who are under water on their mortgages and more millions who have been foreclosed.

c. Gas prices will be a big factor. Price at pump has
already more than doubled since Obama was anointed.

d. Another large group is disillusioned young voters who
expected “hope & change” to make their lives better. It has
not worked. Many young college graduates can’t find jobs.
Their college tuition has escalated significantly in 3 years.
I have 2 kids in college so I see that first hand.

e. More GOP voters are angry at Obama in 2012 than they were
in 2008. He was basically an unknown in 2008 and many did
not bother voting since maverick McCain did not excite many.

9)A potential viable third party arising as a result of a Romney nomination bleeding away white voters that would have otherwise gone to the GOP nominee.

As the article rightly stresses, a Romney nomination is a sure defeat anyway, so why not launch a conservative third-party candidacy? In addition to sending a no-sh*t message to the GOP estabs we've had enough of their game, fielding a conservative candidacy may draw out enough conservative voters to generate interest in pulling the Senate from the clutches of the dems. Romney poisoned the waters of what started out as a promising campaign. Make the SOB pay by drawing votes from him.

I agree with the poster who stated only: B.S.

ANY Republican can beat Barrack Obama.

Romney will be the GOP nominee and the next president.

Obama will not lose to Romney, he will lose to the economy.

It is all about the economy and nothing else. The only way Obama could possibly win is if those on welfare and food stamps and getting green subsidies vote in greater numbers than those on unemployment, paying high gas bills, and worrying about getting laid off.

It’s the economy, Stupid. All of the vapid points in the article are wrong. Obama loses to the economy and is gone. Romney is president. Bank on it.

Four years ago today, McCain was ahead by a whooping 30 points, but today, Romney is only ahead by around 10.

Getting rid of Romney is doable, but time is short.

On the bright side, there is no quicker way to kill off the GOP than having that degenerate coward Kolobian Bishop buy the nomination.

Time for the GOP to die anyway, destroyers of the Republic going back to 1861 and useless in the fight against the communists, the country club blue bloods and their creepy pulled back wives living it up in DC off the backs of the working stiff need to get knocked down hard.

On a lighter note:

I wouldn't argue with any of you points.
