Romney out. Congratulations Freepers on ensuring there was no conservative in the race. (Vanity)

Posted on 02/07/2008 9:51:12 AM PST by mbraynard

You rallied behind someone who never had their heart in the race and was never a leader in their life (Thompson) or never had a chance in hell (Hunter). What is needed more than anything to win the WH is a drive to do the spade work necessary to get there. So by denying Romney victory in IA and NH and SC, and splitting the field, you now have probably the worst enemy of all - someone the Wonderful Mr. Jim Robinson never saw fit to put a 'truth file' on.

So, nice work.

I can and will vote for McCain even though I dislike him as intensely as i dislike any politician. The idea of Hillary or Obama as Commander-in-chief in wartime is just too much to stomach.

I think mbraynard took my advice to get drunk and that's why his later posts got way out of hand.

Frankly, I'm getting as perturbed as you with all the whiners and finger pointers. I dare any of these crybabies to find a post of mine slamming FReepers for voting their conscience, because my candidate left the race. There are literally 100s of whiny Rudy/Huck/Paul/Romney moping Freepers prowling the threads just to pout and throw temper tantrums.

Excuse me, where does it say that a conservative has to be pious, pure and sin-free?

Likewise. You have a cynical/sarcastic sense of humor much like my own. That usually indicates a technical professional - am I right?

You are seriously making me ROTFLOL! I recall college. The Engineers were so detailed (it was a huge joke to all of us non engineer types). Back then, the engineers were considered these rigid, geeky types but I know first hand they weren’t like that all. Well, they were like that but not in a negative sense. Heh. I married an electrical engineer and he was far from geeky other than he was super smart and that was a huge turn on.

My oldest is an A student, serious high school athlete (she could get athletic scholarships too for volleyball, even to penn state who if you didn’t know won the freakin’ national championship this year, but really she probably won’t get the athletic scholarship for a div 1 school). She has a 4.0 weighted gpa and is in all honors/AP classes for her core classes plus she’s an athlete plus she works at least 20 hours a week and plus she’s involved in extracurricular ativities and tutors other students. But she’s not a minority so...she’s basically screwed since I can’t afford out of state tuition. Same with the other teen. She’s a soph, honor student, volleyball/athlete, but she can’t go to penn state either unless they offer tons of tuition money. Same with the other two. A 4th and 6th grader and both play soccer, lacrosse, basketball, and volleyball competitively and both are A/B students. But they won’t get the money, not that they should don’t get me wrong - my point is no one should based on race or gender (?) or anything else but academics. Point is, two and probably 4 of my kids won’t get a damn thing to help them with college because they’re white and that sucks imo. We have these intelligent, focused kids and we’re losing them because of the socialist state this country is continuing to become. Sure, they’ll do it without amy help but it sucks that intelligence and even athleticism is based on some stupid minority crap. And I really wouldn’t mind, because in my opinion, we’re not owed anything, however, I hate paying for everyone else.

Depending on what state you’re in, I’m sure there’s at least one good engineering school. Where do you live?

He was beaten by one man that was strongly against his campaign.

Only one man.

That man was Mitt Romney.

You don’t need to be pious but a double minded man is a hypocrite

If man wants to stop abortion than stop with tempting their sister and brother.

We did have higher standards at one time until the break down in the 60’s!

Oh I know. I was just teasing and hoped you got that. I had a blast tonight chatting with you.

You definitely entertained me and I thank you for that. You also helped and again I thank you :) I always want to be fun and hope I was, even when I’m stupid :) I get so much more out of this site than I contribute and I do appreciate that.

You do realize that now I’m going to come to you for help? I’m worried for you as I can be annoying :)

Thank you. I’ve only read a 1/3 of your profile, I’m still amazed about the whole profile thing, but you rock.

By the way, if you saw me you'd never guess engineer. Here's my real picture:

Hah, I'm out of control. I'm making myself laugh now.
