Is that fair? Not necessarily. But it is what happened.
***Thank you for saying that. So, when the GOP nominates some RINO and the socons sit this one out, you and I know what will happen: electoral suicide. Is that fair? Well, in this case I would actually say YES. The fatalistic approach, “but it has happened” is exactly what I will be using when some RINO wants me to vote for their candidate.
Romney supporters are not to blame.
***Sure you are. What makes you think you’re exempt? If you love this republic, you’d do something about this tragedy.
Now we must just move on and make due with what is still available.
***True enough. But why are polls still being used? Why is the GOP not withdrawing its sponsorship and cooperation with any further debates that exclude candidates who are on the ballot? Because the Rockefeller Republicans are angling for a takeover, and they just might succeed. But take heart, I think Romney may be suitable to these RINOs, so your candidate is probably safe.
Romney is the only remaining viable candidate who can defeat the Democrats.
Of that I am 90% certain.
I too am disheartened that the Republican base will accept the back-stabber McCain, or worst, Huckabee, who scares the pants off of me and almost all non evangelicals.
Although Fred is correct and a good conservative, he is simply an AWFUL boring candidate, and would get trounced by an energetic Obracko-Shrillary machine in the general election.
Rudy Guiliani is looking to be less and less and less likely, which is a good thing.
Which brings us back to the one candidate who, despite his flaws, stands the best chance of keeping conservatives in control of the US military, and in the White House.
