Bears repeating ... in bold ...

“If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures.” - Alexander Hamilton

Thank you for such an apropos reminder from a true patriot.

[JmyBryan]

The quote could be applied to any candidate.

Anyone who suggests that Obama may be preferable is execrable and treasonous.

If you want to teach a lesson through the reelection of Obama your students are not listening. They are struggling to prevent the destruction of this country while you sit back and assume a lofty and righteous (and worthless and destructive) position.

[so_real]

Though I disagree, I accept your point of view. You may even be correct, which would explain the contested convention that seems imminent. If all our candidates are so equally tainted as you feel, then Santorum's statement is accurate. Obama will beat Romney in the general election and, as Alexander Hamilton encouraged, we will have an enemy at the head of government whom we can oppose and will not involve our party in his disgrace.

I suggest you far right thinkers remember what the “I’ll take my ball and go home” approach ..

Calling me a far right thinker? Thanks for the compliment.

“I intend to vote for Romney.”

Lemme know how that works out for ya, billva, after Romney throws Conservatives under the bus.

It certainly can't work out any worse than voting for a guy who can't get nominated, if nominated can't win and who would rather ruin the chances of someone who could.

Stick with Santorum if you want but he's a loser. Let me know how that works out.

Santorum isn’t a loser. He is a good candidate.

But it’s hard to contend with an unscrupulous Rino who outspends one by 21 to 1. (Chicago).

Let me clarify my loser remark. He's a loser in this contest and runs the risk of ruining his future if he sticks to long.

As far as the money goes, Romney is better organized, raises more money and of course has plenty of the $$$$ commodity himself.

Santorum could have a bright future but screw it up by staying to long.
