Right. In an open race, Romney wouldn't have endorsed a RINO like Hunter did. So Romney is more conservative than Duncan Hunter. I had forgotten that- thanks for bringing it up.

BTW, I agree 100% with the rest of your post.
Obama is dangerous for many reasons!
“I dont write many vanities, but the RINOs have screwed us this time.”
Yes sir, they indeed have. I could not agree with you more.
Long as you are trying to offend Republicans, how about blaming those hick Huckamorons too? And the McCainiacs. And the kook Paulians, what a laugh riot those guys are. Who did I forget? Oh, yeah, the zombies who supported their dead guy, Thompson. How could I forget the dead guy!
Anyone still unoffended?
We need candidates who appeal to all the different groups within the party. Instead we have candidates who set the different groups at each other's throats, as we have seen play out here on FR. This thread is just more of the same.
These days I bet James Carville has a permanent smile on his face.
Talk about passing the buck. It was the “ultras” here who tore down every good alternative to McCain. Well, you wanted Capt. Queeg, you got him.
I won’t argue with you on that one.
McCain’s on you, dude. You refused to get behind sensible alternatives. Enjoy him.
“Obama is dangerous because he is treated like he is the second coming. His supporters don’t know a thing about what he believes in, but he is their savior!”
For a moment there I thought you were talking about Mitt supporters. They treated him like he was Elvis Presley or the Beatles. It was truly an eye opener for me to witness that here on FR, a conservative forum of all places.
I agree with that. I also agree that they have been condescended to and betrayed by the Republican establishment. They have come to be counted on to do the heavy lifting come election time, and ignored every other time. 2006 was a shameful example of this. This time they acted irrationally in supporting Huckabee, who is a socialist. That is why I say that I blame them. I think that the GOP had it coming, however. The problem is, we are all going to suffer the consequences, RINOS (I am sick of that word) Conservatives, and Evangelicals.
Amen, bro. I was here near the beginning, and am disgusted at how a good candidate like Romney was thrown overboard in favor of cardboard candidates like Hunter and Fredwho never were serious.
We have been without a conservative leader for several years now. Most young voters think of Reagan as we do Abraham Lincoln. History books only.
Maybe. Hillary is dangerous and so is McCain, we know that much.
“You refused to get behind sensible alternatives. “
It’s sad that people like you think that we have to settle for “sensible alternatives” (RINOS and Liberals) simply because they might appear to be more electable. It’s people like you who got us in this mess in the first place. Now you try to blame conservatives for this. No sale!
I don’t like McCain, never did.
I showed interest in Hunter early on. He never even got off the ground.
Fred Thompson caught my eye, but his total lack of interest in the job turned me off.
Among those remaining, Mitt Romney stood out to me as a conservative, family-values oriented candidate whom I could easily support.
I voted for him Tuesday night.
Now he is out. Will I vote for McCain? I don’t know yet.
More to your point:
I’m pretty sure I’m not a liberal. And I’m pretty sure I’ve done nothing personally to destroy the Republican Party or the conservative movement.

Sorry about the double post. Not sure how that happened.
