Conservatives are lost. Give us Barrabas!

Posted on 12/03/2011 4:42:03 PM PST by OUTKAST

After the news of Herman Cain, it appears to me that conservatives are lost.

How can you abandoned a man on allegations yet flock over to support someone who has a history of doing worse.

It reminds me of when Jesus was being betrayed by his own people instead they wanted the guy that use to rape their women an steal from them to go free..

America, you deserve what you get in 2012. You are constantly being played like sheep to a slaughter.

We can now proceed with the plans for the New World Order for the next century...

Bachmann or Santorum should be winning this thing hands down.

No they shouldn't, which is why they're where they are in the polls.

It takes a lot more than ideological purity to appeal to the vast spread of center-right voters. Things like demonstrated executive capability, and a personality that compels others to follow, are prime requisites to capture sufficient support to win the nomination.

There are many other intangibles, and the laundry list of skill sets and attributes is long, but the point is, there's a 'total package' that center-right voters are looking for in their next president. Neither Bachmann or Santorum score well on that list, which is why neither of them will be the nominee.

There's even a chance that Romney and Gingrich will fail to make the cut with the voters. It's a wild ride we're on, and anything can happen.

does anyone know if we can post a link to a video on this site as its own thread?

Click on the Chat forum, and see how many videos have been posted as stand-alone threads. It's in the thousands...

Iran will happen before the election. Hold on for the ride of your life both domestically and overseas...

I think of that when I look at all the naked car bumpers in my neighborhood.

These people don't want BO.

They don't know who they DO want.

Yet.

This should be enough to disqualify Newt from getting the conservative vote.

It should also be mentioned that advocates of amnesty should not be taken seriously if they claim to be also in favor of tougher border control. It is simply not credible that advocates of amnesty will be reliably tough on controlling the borders. ~Newt Gingrich 2006

Do you not understand that even if he had done that, next week and the week after there would have been more accusers? Pretty soon, all he would be doing would be denying and trying to defend himself.

Look what they did against Sarah Palin. They threw everything in the book at her, and they will not let up. Hell, they sent some phony book writer to Alaska to rent the house next door and dig up dirt on the Palins.

Who is this “they” I keep talking about? The leftists (Democrat AND Republican) and their puppets, the lying bastards in the media!

People-SOME people,anyway-keep saying that Cain was driven out,lynched,smeared,etc. Something they don't seem to understand,or simply don't want to see....it is glaringly obvious that what happened in the case of Cain vs. White is that he simply didn't have the wherewithall to defend himself against what very well may be a scurrilous attack on his character,and nothing more.
Put yourself in Cain's position for a moment. Just imagine,for one little minute,that you are a candidate for POTUS. A woman from your past comes out of the woodwork to accuse you of having an affair with her for 13 years.
You are shocked and blindsided by this sudden turn of events. You cannot understand why this person,who was supposedly a friend who turned to you for financial aid time after time,would do such a thing.
You immediately go to your campaign staff,hold an emergency meeting with them and get your evidence in order-witnesses,copies of emails,checks,letters,etc.and mount a vigorous defense-because you are a man of principle,you've done nothing wrong and,what's more,you can prove it-and you want to put an end to it quickly,and move on with the business of getting elected and get the country back on track.

OR...

...you give a two-minute,flat-out,generic-sounding denial that proves nothing,don't provide any kind of vigorous defense beyond saying "oh, it's patently false",then subsequently add a little more to your statement while being interviewed several times (well,yes,I knew her,well,yes,I helped her,yes we all make mistakes),and finally drive the last stake into your own political heart by admitting that you were helping this friend,all the while without your spouse knowing about it,and it's ok because she believed the explanation you gave her.

Yeah. I'm the kool-aid drinker.

Cain did it to himself,whether you want to believe it or not,and what you have just witnessed is the political self-destruction of a man who,while appearing to be a good and decent person,may just be so human,have no coping skills and a bunch of idiots for a campaign staff.

“The ballot box apparently will not work for the people so it may be time for the other alternative.”

Lighten up, Francis. You need to turn your computer off, go outside, breathe a while, and take a walk. The ballot box works just fine. Believe it, or not, this nation has seen darker times even than now — the ballot box then was the answer, never the problem.

Hell...the Demos can just set back and let the Conservatives eat their ownselves up.

I'm sure Democrat Underground has a "Freak Republic" thread going right now.

Thank you my FRiend.

In his own words, Newt Gingrich says we cannot take him seriously or trust him to secure our borders.

Given that, it is scary that a Republican who has the stated goal of amnesty could be leading and could possibly be the only chance we have of defeating Barack Obama.
