I am puzzled. He supposedly jumped in the race after a very extensive “Draft Fred” campaign. He talked a big talk. He at least on the surface appears to be one of the few of those that have been considered “top tier” candidates who actually have somewhat of a conservative record.
He started off with what appeared to be solid support.
And now talk of dropping out....???
The CFR folks must have got the message to him that he is not one of their “anointed” candidates....
With Duncan Hunter (my preferred candidate) polling in the low singe-digits (Ron Paul polling much higher) - this leaves no candidates who at this point deserve my vote.
Huckabee - while he talks a pretty good game, skeletons have started emerging from his closet (pardons/early releases, Big government big spender, nanny state).
Romney - Whether it matters to some, his Mormonism will be a major factor if he gets the nomination. His record vs. his stated platform collide pretty seriously. He is the 2008 version of the Democrat’s John Kerry of 2004... or so he appears.
McCain - Insane and is a traitor on several fronts - from immigration, to throwing away the Republican majority power. He is a RINO....and I personally believe he is a NV brainwashing/programming subject....
Rudy-— BIG TIME Liberal who also has a problem with record vs. his statements as a candidate. I don’t see Rudy being a significant improvement over Hillary...
So with the most conservative candidates either out, or soon-to-be out of the race - that leaves us with folks who are flip-floppers, and/or big government taxers, and traitors who love illegal immigrant labor...
I am fed up.
It isn’t over yet - let’s at least wait to freak out until we know what happens tomorrow.
Don’t believe everything you read in the funny papers...
While I feel your pain and you make some good points, you have not seen “fed up” until a FULL-BLOODED DEMOCRAT gets elected. That nightmare, may very well become reality.
I will not stay home, I will not join in a futile attempt at a 3rd party pipedream that our country will not rally behind. Can you imagine 8 more years of the Clinton cancer......not me and not without a fight.
I will likely vote for Romney.
Shouldn’t we all be a tad more suspicious about the conflicting news items about the candidates? The spin from this one state from both parties and the MSM is nearly hysterical.
