Romney is an utterly detestable opportunist with no core, but is he worse than a radical Marxist? In a Romney vs. Obama contest, seems it's a question of which one is the "evil of the lessers."

Faced with such a choice, I would write in Sarah Palin's name. Hope it doesn't come down to that.

Faced with a choice between Romney and Obama, I choose not to ride in either handbasket.

Santorum was simply using hyperbole in attacking Romney—if anyone thinks Rick would actually vote for Obama over Mitt then they are way to used to hearing only what they want to hear..

Sarah Palin doesn't want your vote. If you told her you were going to do that she'd probably say you were acting silly.

This is akin to someone going before a firing squad and being told that he has two choices: to be shot with either pink bullets or blue bullets. Then a crowd gathers and says that it is important to choose the blue bullets.

The world is going bonkers.

I fail to see much difference. Romney will lose anyway because he’s concentrating on Obama strongholds and telling the base to screw ourselves. And then he’ll move to the middle and situate himself somewhere between Hillary Clinton and Barrack Obama.

I will never vote for either one of them. Never.

If Romney is nominated, then, as I’ve said before, I think we need to get the conservatives together and agree on a single write-in candidate.

Whether we can agree to agree, I don’t know. The insults on these nominating threads have been very discouraging, and the same was true last time around.

Possibly someone like Sarah could lead a gathering who would choose one candidate. My preference would be Sarah herself, but the important thing is that we need a strong and reliable conservative whom we can all agree on. And if the libertarians and moral conservatives can’t get together on it, then we are cooked.

I would vote for Sponge Bob if he got the nod at this point. I suggest you far right thinkers remember what the “I’ll take my ball and go home” approach did for you last election. As bad as things are Mitt can’t swing very far left, period. I’m also sick of the etch a sketch thing we all know primary and general campaigns are far different than each other no matter who gets the nomination. The Dems are good, their operatives run the press and this attitude is exactly what they want. Break the right’s will, suck the energy out of our sails. Let us not forget the senate will ride this same wind and if you think the potus has been bad so far wait till term #2. I can’t remember her name but today a Lady on FOX said “Romney isn’t dangerous, not great, but not dangerous” or something of the like. She is correct.

Romney will lose the debate and deflate the base worse than McLame

At least with Zero, the GOP might choose to fight purely based upon partisanship. Romney will govern the same as Zero (socialized healthcare, gun control, cap&trade, etc)....except this time the weak knee’d GOP leadership will fully embrace his liberal agenda. A Romney Presidency does more damage to conservatism and the country, than a split govt...even with Zero at the helm.

I will never vote for Romney/Zero.

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.
