We must elect a HERO in 2016!

[SoConPubbie]

Bush Sr, Dole, . . .McCain, Romney

You're kidding, right?

Those aren't heros, unless you have no conservative standards at all.

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

Well, we’ll see.

Won’t we...

"The pattern is obvious"

Yes, the quality of the GOP candidates has worsened with every cycle after 1984. From great, to mediocre, to indistinguishable from the rodents (lying, malignant narcissists with impeccable leftist credentials).

[Verginius Rufus]

It depends on how you define "hero." If used in the traditional sense of military hero, certainly G. H. W. Bush, Dole, and McCain are heroes.

They aren't heroes in a political sense, as being consistent leaders of the conservative cause, although each was right on some issues and not nearly as bad as their Democratic counterpart. The first Bush, for example, selected Clarence Thomas for the Supreme Court. We might not have had 9/11 if Dole had been President instead of Clinton from 1997 to 2001, and we wouldn't have Obamacare if McCain had won in 2008. Even our duds are much better than the alternatives.

An “R” behind the name doesn’t automatically make the person the good guy. The GOP is largely as traitorous as the Democrats.

I have friends who refuse to see that there’s a huge difference between Republicans and conservatives.

As for Romney, he’s a hero only to those who share his love of abortion and queers.

[GSWarrior]

This is not thread-worthy.

A hero in 2016 will be Cruz/Palin or Cruz/Walker.

[CatherineofAragon]

Yeah, there's such a big difference between Democrats and those Republican heroes!

Romney?
A hero?
Pro homosexual, progunban, proobamacare, protax, there was literally no liberal position that Romney didn’t support.
Looking at your post history cracks me up.
You squishies are really funny.
You complain about Obama, yet support Romney who held the exact same position on issues as Obama.

[Darksheare]

DannyH, is that you?

[SoConPubbie]

Seems no-one was buying your crap, including the Mods.

So long newbie.

Learn what it means to stand by your stated principles and not be a hypocrite.

Well, I missed a chance to bat you around like a cat does a mouse, so here is a gone bye-bye present.
