Frankly, I cannot fathom the mind of somebody who would go from supporting Thompson to supporting Huckabee. It just does not make any sense.I think it's total BS. The fact that (unfortunately) there weren't that many of us Fredheads means that we were with Fred for a reason, and that reason was his conservative reasonableness.
No reasonable person, of any persuasion, let alone conservative, would have any reason to vote for a shyster huckster Elmer Gantry snake-oil salesman.
I’m considering Huckabee and Ron Paul, admittedly not without cringing at the thought of supporting either of them.
My two biggest issues are being against abortion and gun control. I don’t buy into Romney’s “change of heart” on abortion or gun grabbing. I don’t consider Romney to be all that much better than Huckabee on most issues important to conservatives and think they are about equally trustworthy (They’re both lying, flip flopping RINOs, but at least Huckabee has been consistent on the two previously mentioned issues). I will not vote for Romney under any circumstances so I’m afraid I’m stuck with the idiot snake oil salesman or the kook libertarian. Of course I won’t be all that active supporting either of them, if that makes you feel better.
I won’t support Romney because I’ve been slapped around one too many times by the Republican party in supporting the least objectionable candidate “who can win.” This year was my line in the sand for the Republicans to put up or shut up and it looks like they didn’t put up. Maybe after four more years of another Clinton co-presidency the Republican party will pull its head out its collective butt and support conservatives. Until then, I’m going to fulfill my religious duty to vote for someone who supports ending the slaughter of innocent children as well as try to keep what’s left of my right to bear arms.
I’m betting that if Romney does happen to win it’s going to be a long four years of everyone whining that he isn’t as conservative as they thought he was, not unlike our current RINO-in-Chief.
Sorry, I replied to the wrong person. My post was intended to be a reply to 808thebass, not quite sure how I messed that one up.
