The GOP is not the lone problem.
The Country has become mired in DNC talking points.
Reagan was the last of the good humored, Get things done guys.
Now a days no one smiles and laughs and we are very quick to attack ourselves over our real enemy’s.
Everything is hopeless and we are all on edge.
What drives me crazy is that we attack ourselves before our enemy’s.
We Kiss China’s/Arabs butt and attack fellow Americans.
China and the ME Suck
Good list.
I think Romney has a lot of what Reagan had, but he just doesn’t know how to get the reg’lar guy to believe it or “feel” it.
Sadly, Obama has a lot of people bamboozled.
He’s a good time Charlie that never was down with the struggle.
He was raised a privileged “white boy” and hides behind being black.
I have neither option. Obama is a divider more than Romney.
Romney’s burden is that he comes off as decent and tough but separated from the masses.
If I was Romney I would not apologize.
Obama is separated from the masses and aloof, and he is a shyster.
It began shortly after this speech.

The first Bush tossed the Reagan Revolution under the bus on the first day.!!!!!
Reagan threw the Ayatollah under the bus on the first day.
Sarah Palin made her decision to get out of the arena.
Now she makes calls from the stands.
I like her, but that is the truth.
FIFY
From 1936 to 1952,the Republicans forsook a solid conservative, Robert A.Taft, for Alf Landon, Wendell Willkie, Tom Dewey and Dwight Eisenhower. Landon, Willkie and Dewey were losers, and under Eisenhower, the Republican stregth in Congress shrunk with every election, culminating in the blowout of 1958..
Romney is the pinnacle of our betrayal.
The Coolidge but confuses me. Unless it’s in reference to the endless battle over what caused the Great Depression—which even if you’ve forgotten about it remains important to economic psychopaths like Bernanke—it isn’t reallly relevant. I mean, I’d love him to be a national hero over Lincoln, TR, FDR, and Kennedy, but that’s never happen. Our hearts belong stupidly to Do Somethings and “what might have been.”
I can understand opposition to Paling. I can even understand the MSMs hissy fit against her. That is, if she weren’t up against Joe Biden. I mean, come on. If he can get in...I just don’t know what to say.
We could start by not charging into battle with the 3rd rail battle du jour.
In this election we should stick to the economy and the budget.
Contraception and such are not issues at the moment.
Who is that ahole in Missouri? Akin?
He could have held his tongue and made us proud, but NO! He couldn’t keep his powder dry
"They" didn't ram Romney down our throats.
Top conservatives such as Sarah Palin and Jim De Mint declined to run. Newt Gingrich ran an incompetent campaign. Herman Cain was not ready for prime time. Rick Perry couldn't cut the mustard. Rick Santorum ran a valiant campaign but was hampered by his loss of his Senate seat.
So it should be no surprise that Romney won the nomination.
The gutting in the primary’s around here ran some great people off.
Romney made it through.
I have new respect for him.
I was a Perry guy and I still think he is a good guy, but he was on pain meds at the time and it was ugly.
I must admit his flat tax proposal and Cains 999 were complete BS
Let me expound upon that by saying I am not ripping on Perry or Cain.
That Flat tax and 999 stuff is just political pablum.
It has NO Chance of ever happening.
OBO makes big promises that he can’t keep as well.
Bit with Obama not only doesn’t he keep his promises, he make matters worse.
Obama is the biggest charlatan I have ever seen in office.
They started clearing the way for Romney even before the 2008 election.
