I do not want Ron Paul to pick the nominee, or be the Nominee, no chance!
And, it won’t happen, you are dreaming!
My money is on Romney dropping his campaign before he shows his 2007, 2008 and 2009 income tax returns.
He may have suffered massive losses in the derivatives market collapse, and simply carried them forward and back as far as the law allowed ~ thereby giving himself some serious money in refunds from the federales (although he did suffer some losses).
This would be similar to the trick GE used to avoid paying any income taxes at all during that same period ~ not that they didn't do anything illegal, but they got some whopping big refunds from "overwithholding" ~ Bwahahahahahahah!!!!
McCain saw NONE of that stuff!
Frankly, I think he's a rich guy who cares more for his money than anything else ~ but we shall see, eh.
You’re full of crap.
Um, no. Not gonna happen. Come back to planet earth.
I am amazed this level of idiocy is permitted on Free Republic.
And replace him with who? We’re stuck with the Mittens so better ride that horse with gusto to the finish line.
Never going to happen.
Tell us, are you looking for a particular nutcase that published decades of racist whacko newsletters, blames the US for 9/11 and thinks Iranian nukes is just fine?
It isn’t going to happen, and Mitt is going to win. Democrats might have a better chance, if they give us another Carter/Kennedy debacle.
Absolutely we need a brokered convention. Romney is one of the worst forms of RINO democrat in republican clothing that could be foisted on Americans.
It’s a damned shame that the Paulbots have more courage in this regard than many conservatives. In just two days Tea Party conservatives have flexed muscle in Chick-Fil-A and the Texas run-off but still we act like we have to take what is served up. I just don’t get it.
How are you going to get a brokered convention when mittens lready has enough delegates to get the nomination on the first ballot!??
That ship done sailed!
Ridiculous, Romney is it! Grow up!
If a true conservative comes out of the convention, they will get the base back. No one is excited about Romney (maybe mormons who think he is fulfilling a prophecy). I have yet to talk with one person who “likes” Romney and that is from republicans. Lots of people are saying there are no real choices and want nothing to do with the election. The common response is that they are all corrupt. Lots of people have a problem with Romney and all his money. I know, these are republicans, but they say he hasn’t had to live like normal people. They don’t care if he’s filthy rich, but don’t want that in a president. They also question how he got it all. As bad as obama has been, the republican nominee should be kicking his butt, Romney isn’t getting it done, and hatred of obama is not enough to move these people. Just look at FR and think about how many conservatives are not voting for Romney; and we are political junkies. The average person out there has given up on politics. The gop has to know people don’t like him by polling. Part of the problem is people are finding out what romney did in MA and say all politicians are corrupt.
No thanks. Don’t need the negativity and Republicans beating each other up two months before the election as it would be a great way to do the typical Republican thing of pulling defeat out of the jaws of victory. Romney is not my preferred candidate, but I can say that Obama is even farther from that description. Even my cat would be a better President than Obama, and so I am far more willing to give Romney a chance than risk having more of Mr. Awesomely-terrible.
No.
Ah man, shut up and grow a brain.
Mitt Romney’s father was a Mexican citizen therefore Mitt Romney is not a naturalized citizen and can not hold the office of president. If Obama’s daddy is a Kenyan then he is not a naturalized citizen either, so neither legally can hold the office of president.
What is good for one is good for all.
No matter your feelings about the chances of winning, dropping Mittens is the only way for the conservative movement to maintain its dignity. I mean, look at all these people who happily support and defend a known pathological liar? I cannot recall a more dispicable Republican nominee than Mitt Romney, who not too long ago was using his people to sabotage conservative candidates on behalf of the Democrats. Kieth Maddon, one of Romney’s top advisers, was on CNN pushing the Palin = Diva narrative on the eve of the election against Obama! And now so many “conservatives” are accusing others of somehow being unpatriotic for putting Justice before Party?
Some say it is because they love their country more. But these people can only be infidels, as it is an insult to God to pretend that such injustice can be winked at and yet expect God to “heal our land” and restore us to our former glory.
These Mittens Apologists are not conservatives. They are Republicans, which this race has made very clear. When it comes down to crunch time, they’re A-OK with the money changers in the temple SO LONG AS THEY’RE OUR MONEY CHANGERS.
In the end, this is more a spiritual problem than it is political. Too many Americans believe that WE can pull ourselves up by our bootstraps, and so they play these political games at the expense of their own principles. What better President then than Barack Obama or Mitt Romney, a pair of shallow enemies of God who wear lots of makeup and practice catch phrases in front of a mirror?
Just curious...are you implying Ronald Reagan was chosen in a brokered convention?
