Look, I used to despise Romney too, and thought that maybe just for cathartic purposes or something, kind of like a medieval bloodletting for health, we should reelect O. But that would be confirmation of O’s socialist pro-gay pro-illegal policies, all for a small brownie point that conservatives stuck to their purity and didn’t deign to vote for RR.
A couple things have changed in my view of Romney. One, his debate #1 performance, I thought it was unabashed conservative. I really didn’t see any waffling toward the middle, as MSNBC tried to portray.
And on the key issue of immigration, in debate 2, though RR has been low key on the issue, he confirmed that he isn’t going to do amnesty, and ROMNEY IS GOING TO INSTITUTE E-VERIFY! That will be critical to stemming illegal immigration and the illegals to leave, and O is not going to do it, and sop with O the next thing we know the electorate will be overwhelmed by illegals that vote Dem & socialist.
No, conservatives, vote Romney, not Obama.
I respect your decision. This is the last nose holder for me.
Gary Johnson is an open borders/free trader and Virgil Goode was a Democrat. They both have warts as large as Romney’s.
THIS is not the PRIMARY.....vote for Libertarian in the General is a VOTE FOR OBAMA...whether you like it or not....that’s the result. WORK within the GOP to CHANGE them...that’s what hundreds of thousands of us are doing....not going to shoot ourselves in the foot just because we don’t have the “PERFECT” candidate.
Here's why: For Romney to score a clean win, he's got to win both the Electoral College AND the popular vote.
Now suppose Romney wins the EC, but loses the popular vote by a sliver, say 50,000 votes. Sure, he'd be president, but he'd be dogged by the popular vote loss. It would be a stone around his neck that he just doesn't need.
Beyond that, there would probably be riots over the popular vote winner (Obama in this scenario) being “denied” his victory.
Knock it off...Vote for Romney
I live in the deepest of the Blue States - MA - I’m voting for Romney...and I don’t even like him :)
(Thank goodness there’s no strong “Perot” in this race)
We are not only voting against Barack Obama, but we are also voting against Eric Holder, Kathleen Sebelius, Janet Napalitano, Hillary Clinton and her apparently soon to come replacement John “I was in VietNam” Kerry, Valerie Jarrett and the rest of the Obama Chicago Thug Machine.
Think about it.
Since I believe in Miracles, I refuse to give in to the CA Democrats (Communists) and the Obama Regime (Communists)without a fight. Lots of other people and issues on the Ballot that needed our support as well.
Exactly what do you think will be accomplished with your Grand Bargain? This question is coming from a 1992 Perot Voter, so I know what can happen when a Third, Fourth or Fifth Party Candidate robs Votes from the Republican.
To this day I regret my Political ignorance of 20 years ago.
How about, a vote for Gary Johnson is a vote that shows you are incapable of simple reasoning or math. People vote for Gary Johnson for one of two reasons, a big pumped up ego that thinks you are better than everyone else and won't soil yourself in the trenches getting rid of Obama, or two, you like pot.
