While we can say in hindsight now what he should’ve done, the fact is that he thought it was absolutely ludicrous to declare for President so long before the cycle. We are reaching the point now that a candidate has to declare 2 to 4 years in advance to be “viable.” While he may have made the mistake now of not entering early enough, I don’t think it would’ve mattered. The media and the RINO establishment didn’t want him, they ignored his candidacy from the day after he declared onward, focusing on the likes of Rudy, et al, who was the preferred choice. They didn’t want a Conservative GOP candidate, they just wanted another liberal, and now they’re gonna get one. It just makes you sick.

Well, if you look at the behavior of our Republicans in Congress over the past eight years, true Conservatives like Jeff Sessions and John Cornyn have been few and far between.

It's like after the 1994 revolution, and Gingrich's and Livingston's departure, the RINO's took over...the final blow was the abandonment of DeLay, whom I didn't like as a person, but who was the last bit of glue in the caucus.

It is a sad day indeed. Unlike you I will support Romney, if I get the chance, but I will not vote for McCain no matter what. Insanity is the BIG disqualifier for the presidency.
