it boils down to I would rather have Romney(gag choke)pick the next SCOTUS justice than the messiah.
lets wait for the convention and lets stir up that convention before we make that decision.
see sig line.
just say no to socialism in all forms, regardless of the letter (d or r) that follows the name of the candidate. a vote for socialism is a vote for socialism. period.
The very people who need to be rioting are too civilized to do it.
I’ll tell you what we do.
We still have seven months. We find a solidly conservative national candidate. We organise and build up a fund-raising apparatus and nationwide organisation. We organise drives to get this solidly conservative national candidate on the ballot in all 50 states. We go for broke appealing to conservatives (in all parties and independents) to vote for us instead of for Romney, while also articulating conservatism in a reasonable way to the masses. We also demonstrate the kind of rock-steady leadership that Reagan did that will sway many moderates to us, even if they’re not that naturally ideologically inclined toward us. then we win pluralities, if not outright majorities, in all of the states that Bush won, so WE win.
Totally agree. One is just as bad as the other. The destination is the same.
It’s not over yet. Support Newt.
A year ago I was a ‘if Romney is the candidate I’m staying home Nov. 6 guy’.
But so much has happened vis-à-vis Zer0 and the E.O., foreign policy, economic policy that I don’t think our Country can last another 4 yrs. of Zer0 rule. Certainly not as we know it.
If I am alive come Nov. it might be the last election I do vote in and I want to make it count.
Therefore I plan to vote for Romney or whoever is the nominee of the Repub party.
Sometimes it seems to look like Churchill’s choice.

I have been here at FR since shortly after it started and normally in total lock-step with Jim R. However, I am confused on this one issue of the upcoming presidential election. I will put the republican party ahead of the democrat/Obama party anytime. I will vote for the alternative no matter the lack of difference. I see a glass half full rather than to throwaway an election as many did to the Country when Peroet ran against Bush to split the Party successfully.
I’m voting for Romney and am not energized or excited about it nor do I expect to be -— ever. My vote is an anybody but Obama vote.
My stronger focus is on the house and senate. I pray we retain the house and take over the senate with a strong consevative majority. That is my prayer.
Vote for the one who won’t veto as many bills from a conservative Congress, or at least be more supportive of Boehner, and who had 2 American parents and who wasn’t raised by communists, and who doesn’t have a chip on his shoulder against capitalism or individual pursuits, or who can’t say his son would look like a hoodlum, or who is not a Statist, or didn’t pal around with terrorists or who carries a torch for liberation theology.
I’ll vote for neither.
Many of us have been through this exact same situation, although it was perhaps a bit better than this one.
After the euphoria of the glorious victories in 1994, a dismal 1996 faced us. Bob Dole in many ways wasn't a bad as mittens. But like anyone that has been in Washington a long time, his positions had shifted all over the place. Not as bad as McLames, but certainlly there were many troubling things in his words and actions.
So in 1996, just like in 2008, I and many others held our noses and voted for the least objectionable.
The only saving grace is that at least for the next four years you can truthfully say, “well, I voted against this SOB.”
I don’t understand why some people feel the need to have others tell them who to vote for.
or you can jump out before reaching the cliff.
sure, it’ll be a rough landing... but you’ll be alive
i won’t be voting for either. the gop leadership MUST be replaced
FR supported RINO Bush over Gore and Kerry, didn’t they?
