“I sat out ‘08, but I have trouble thinking of a Republican candidate I wouldn’t vote for if it meant defeating Obama’s reelection.”
You’re so right. That’s what I’ve said time and time again - we’re going to need EVERY vote possible to knock The One out of office.
That’s upside down.
Me too.
Right on about everything you said! And EVERYone who doesn’t want/can’t stand/rightfully fears a second term of b. hussein obama had better get it.
I hope the hell I am, but remember this is the country that had to vote for OBummer or McCain.
A lot of folks floating around ain't the brightest bulbs and still get to vote in primaries.
I really wish Sarah would go ahead and declare she is running before some scum floats to top and gets MSM driven momentum.
Nope, he’s never won an alection, she’s won more than five. IMO, he’d be her “Dick Cheney”, especially on foreign affairs, national security and the like.
Hahahaha! They might have to actually go out and get real jobs or [GASP!] join the military if he keeps squandering the family fortune...
“I also think conservatives are seriously underestimating the ability of barack obama to pull votes in 2012.”
Amen to that. And I hope and pray you’re wrong about most conservatives - I’m very conservative, but the idea of a second term of BHO is so horrifying (and would be the death knell for this Republic) that I certainly WILL vote for whoever his opponent is.
If we can take the Senate, which seems likely IMO, Obama will be our mouse to play with.
Whatever.
“We don’t need to destroy Obama, fixing him in position will be sufficient (and potentially entertaining).”
Wrong. Do some delving into just how much damage he’s set in motion (with much more to come) through executive orders, certain cabinet heads (environmental, homeland security, commerce, etc.) and czars - completely circumventing congress and soon, even the SCOTUS. On that subject, how much more likely if he wins a second term, that he’ll appoint at least one more SC justice.
Oh YES, the presidential election does very much matter.
Obama without a democratically controlled HOR and Senate is a totally different President. At that point, you might say, we own him.
Hit me up again in 2012, we’ll see.
Yea I bet he’s going to have all kinds of problems raising money for this election. Might as well count him out.
For those of you who want to discover the essence of Mitt Romney and have some ammunition to help your family, friends, neighbors and work associates reconsider their support of him I would invite you to read the excerpts of a You Tube tape from Sept 22, 2010 in which Romney speaks at a business forum in Los Angeles:

Romney is no more conservative than McCain—probably less so.
But he is just as committed to his own career over principle—probably more so.
President Mittens. It just doesn’t sound Presidential. He does have good hair though.
Maybe being a liberal, from liberal parents, from the liberal state with his main ‘accomplishment’ being Romneycare had something to do with it.
