How do you know that he's not? I'm totally committed to electing anyone who will fight the Romney/Obama agenda including the top line of the ballot where I will probably vote for Goode. However, I won't vote for Tweedledee or Tweedledum.
Those of us who are horrified by the prospect of a Romney Presidency are probably working a lot harder to elect a Tea Party Congress than those who have made their peace with the idea of Romney leading the party. I'm voting in the Kansas primary tomorrow - it will be straight Tea Party / pro-life ticket - anyone who has already endorsed Romney will not get my vote.
Thus far he's never said he was. I am and I have.

Voting for Goode is your right, but if you're in a battleground state then mathematically you're simply accepting the outcome of the majority. Voting for Goode or not voting that line or voting for Obama all have the same effect - re-electing Obama.
Romney and Obama don't have the same agenda. Romney's to the right of Obama and actually likes America. He's not working for the MB or the Saudis.

If that motivates you all the better. But Romney isn't going to lead the party. Titular head? OK, but if FReepers do their job he'll be accountable to a Congress that is serious about moving America forward. You're always going to have compromise, but we need it in the right direction. We cannot concede a SCOTUS nominee to Obama or another 4 years of his disastrous foreign and domestic policies.
Keep in mind that we're still paying for Carter's Iran folly. The terror and horror we see today are a direct outgrowth of that regime, coupled with Saudi Wahabism. Obama's outdone Carter in that sphere five fold. Add in his destructive economic beliefs and then his basic morality and it's lights out America. At least the one we used to know. I mean Obama makes Hilary Clinton look acceptable.
I understand that to sincere, devoted Christians having a Mormon in the WH is sacriligious. That said it is better than having a Cook County Democrat. Obama is worse than either of those two scenarios.
