Except I've given you a very specific reason why mcCain will never receive my vote.

I haven't seen one from you on your position.

I’m saying a great many people I see posting in favor of Mitt and McRino have sign up dates as of the last several months or so. I haven’t counted who there’s more of. I’m not noticing as many new posters posting on Huckabee threads, but, again, I’ve not been consciously counting.

The spammer posts don’t seem to have gone into full throttle, yet, though. I have no doubt that you remember back in 2004 what it was like.

The general populus.. to the average voter - the MSM is where momentum and boosts come from. You think the average voter is as plugged in as we are? no.. they are all going out right now buying food and booze for the superbowl party they are having tomorrow. Trust me.. no one outside of the 10% that actually come to this board or read drudge will even know Main had a caucus.

You know I cant figure out why RINO Romney keeps beating up on president bush...

1. Bush is not running as RINO Romney’s opponent

2. Whomever wins the GOP nomination will need Bush and the GOP leadership to get behind them

3. We need to be unified in Nov and hes dividing the base by bashing Bush

4. People who like Bush will be mad at him..

5. he is showing disrespect for a Republican president...

6. We want people to like the idea of a Republican president, not run to the Democrats

7. he has the same line as Hillary and Obama Change in Washington

8. He has even copied Obamas signs almost word for word

7. He is acting like a maverick...

What is all that all about and dont tell me you dont know

After all you often go to tea with Ann or drink a beer and play pool with Mitt once a week..

I’ve given umpteen reasons on why. I’ve written more posts on the subject of this man than probably on anyone else, so you can review them all if you wish. But you want more besides the fact he is a chronic and pathological liar ? He doesn’t possess the moral character to be the nominee of the Republican party. Post #588 also reflects my position on him.

Like I said.. its like it never happened.. MSM isnt covering it, tomorrow is the superbowl and monday they will be talking about who won the superbowl and the countdown clock to super tuesday. Mitt gets zero boost out of this. He gets as much boost as the Huckster gets out of the expected win in Georga.. NODDA.

There posts all over this thread, if you want specifics.

The very reason WHY some of us post them, so people like you can’t claim there are “no specifics..just insults and slogans.” For posting these specifics, btw, I was just called a spammer and a Romney-hater foflmao!

You said yourself only 10% people will pay attention.

Guess what. 10% of the population votes in primaries. Florida had 2 million vote in the Rep primary, the state population is over 18 million, that’s about 11%.

People who care enough to vote in primaries are paying attention. Nice try though.

Case in point: Here’s a new sign up, post #611...straight from the Romney Campaign.

And you don’t think this kind of person isn’t sending people over here to spam with pro-Romney slogans??

McCain ran for President in 00 and his Conservative Credentials were never questioned.

He was a different person then. This is how I see it: He is still bitter and vengeful about losing to Bush. I know CFR was introduced in the late 90's, but it didn't become LAW until after 2000. The gang of 14, McCain-Kennedy...the list goes on and on and on...

All of which happened *after* he lost the 2000 election.
