VANITY -- I am not voting for Romney, BUT if he wants advice, here is a sample

I am not voting for Romney, though I understand those who are.

That said, NOW is the time to change his phrasing from "I will work to repeal and replace Obamacare from Day One" (which means nothing) to actions more specific than merely agreeing to sign off on a passed bill that repeals Obamacare.

Example of rhetoric, "You want executive orders, Mr. President? You've got'em.

#1. The Sebellius rule manadating abortion and birth control coverage is Gone-zo.

#2. Anyone who wants a waiver has got one. (credit to rottndog)

#3. The centralized database is suspended, so we can prioritize those records that are commiting crimes and dealing drugs.

#4. The IRS will have to get its job done with 60% of the present workforce. Implementing Obamacare is not on their priority list.

etc.

When drowning one is advised to grab anything that floats, survive, and then figure out how to obtain their own boat.

Thats how to look at this election.

Willard is a blatant Socialist. I don’t vote for Socialists. When the GOP nominates a pro-freedom Conservative for President, they will have my vote.

Sure would be helpful if just once we’d learn how to swim before we dove in headfirst.

I am assuming that you will vote - for US Senate, for a conservative US Congresscritter, and for state and local offices. If I am wrong in my assumption, then I hope you will reconsider and at least vote in those races.

Of course. I also plan to vote Hoefling for pres as well. I agreed with every word in your post.

Even among those who believe that not supporting Romney means the end of the free world, are you all donating as much to him as you would have to a Gingrich or Santorum Cain or Palin? If you are, will knock on as many doors, make the same number of phone calls?

I recommend that you put those energies in for the state and local offices, PARTICULARLY if you are in a state that is not in play. I am in Illinois. You do not have to worry about my vote hurting Romney's chances.

You should call Virgil Goode. I bet he’s just dying to receive advice from you.

So give up and curl into a fetal position. Why should I care what your opinions are if you won’t help put Obama out of office?

“I am not voting for Romney”

Then you are an enemy of the United States.


Do you consider JimRob an enemy of the United States?

If Romney wins with votes like mine, the GOP-e will call in thier markers. They will not change, and will talk him into keeping Obamacare. The deline will simply slow, and you & I will be left hoping the government will take care of us in our old age.

If Romney wins without my vote, the vote counts will send a message to teh GOP-e when they compare Presidential vs. down-ticket (which they do). Maybe they will hear the message. If Obama wins without my vote, the decline will be so swift that, by the end of Obama's term, things will be despirate. If nothing else, we will no longer be a frog in a pot.

I cannot be lukewarm and take what the GOP-e has foisted upon me. It will be uncomfortable, but I must do what I can from my place in this Republic to send a message.

The founding fathers did not begin with revolution - they ended up there after all other means failed. They took smaller steps first. I am saddened that so many here seem to have lost sight of that part of history.

I didn't ask you to care. I posted VANITY and put it in BLOGGERS AND PERSONAL. You can care or not. You cared enought o state that you don't care.

I hope that on Wednesday, November 7, should Romney win, those who voted for him out of perceived necessity will start working on replacing him with a conservative in 2017.

“Than your voting for Burlap Insane Obama, you are what is wrong with this fine country of mine.”

He was respectful about it... why can’t you be?

How dare you? You should be relentlessly ridiculed and forced to run away with your tail between your legs. On a day like today, you have the gall to say you won’t vote for him but need to give Romney pointers? Ugh....

“Many Republicans stayed home so they wouldn’t vote for McCain. Unfortunately by default that kept Pelosi and Reid in power. That gave us ObamaCare.”

I call BULLSH*T.
Obama won by a large majority and the midterm elections kicked Pelosi out. Reid won by fraud (and we all know it)!

Keep on voting for RINOs if you want. That’s how we got Justice Roberts in the first place... we had a president who knew JACK about conservatism!

It's worse than that. Because these anti Americans don't like the color of the jetsam they toss it away from those who would clutch to it to live.

I ain't going anywhere. Oddly, if I didn't preface my suggestions with the line"I'm not voting for Romney" there would be no kerfuffle. Heck, some of you might even add to the list, as almost nobody here actually likes Romney or believes that he has a whole lot in the way of integrity.

I would save my gall for those who are posting messages suggesting that Roberts is a clever genius by siding with Kagan and Ginsburg against Scalia and Thomas.

Why are you suggesting ideas for Romney? If they are that important to you give them to your loser candidate.
