It’s not quite Romney’s time. He is still awaiting the results of focus group testing to see what his life-long convictions will be this year.

I think you need to get your facts straight:

“Governor Romney, suspected of harboring future national hopes of his own, reacted to the SJC advisory opinion by reiterating his call for a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage. And by stressing the voters deserved a say in an issue of this importance.”

Given the state of this country I am doubting that a “real conservative” could possibly ever win an election again.

By the time BO is done there will be a whole new batch of government dependents who will continue to vote for their enablers.

Personally I’d love to have Romney as President right now. At least we’d have someone at the helm who had a clue about what he was doing with the economy. But then, I’d rather have Joe the Plumber as President right now than what we’ve got.

Please no. No more Hucksters, McCrazies, or Myths. We’ve got to be able to do better than that.

Palin has too many detractors within the party.


Wonder if this is true or just wishful thinking on the part of the reporter?

What is it, George Will doesn’t like her??? Wow. I’m sure we all care about who George Will likes.

Here’s a news flash for the a$%holes in the MSM. Sarah Palin is a ROCK STAR. She shows up, the place is SRO and going nuts. She wants to run, she gets the nomination. End of story.

Any talk of a “new party” is made only by people who have NEVER in their lives run or been a major part of a successful campaign for office.
If you can not control the Republican Party (Which contains no Registered Democrats) How in the HELL can you ever have a controlling majority of the American voters on your side?

Third Party talk is a sure sign of someone who does not really want to win, but only wants to complain.

I would love to see a Palin/Romney ticket or a Romney/Palin ticket.

Romney would have been far, far better than McCain. It was many of you negative types, on the right, who gave us McCain through your refusal to get behind Romney, when we needed you!

Yeah, a rino worked so well in 08 and Romney has even worse problems than McCain. The South, Christians and any true conservative stays home in huge numbers, democrats continue to win. Stupid party continuing to be stupid.

If you do not cater to your base you lose, I guess country-club republicans really want democrats in power for a long, long time.

“reiterating his call “

He should have written one and pushed it then.

“Calling” is words.

I pay little, if any, attention to anything published on the Politico website, particularly op-ed articles. There's little difference between it, AP, Reuters, AFP, etc. Roger Simon is a clown and the others are little more than schills trying to torpedo anything remotely positive on the conservative side.

Politico went out of its' way to peddle Obama as a centrist, even when everyone knew it was BS. And let's not forget where most of these assho!es came from.

I’m with ya, Kansas. And Mitt would have been excellent in trying to decipher this debacle we’re in now. Let’s hope the country is sick of 0bambi and votes him out in 2012.

God Grant me the Serenity to accept the things I can not change.
The Courage to change the things I can.
And, the WISDOM to KNOW THE DIFFERENCE!

We will NEVER be in a position where every single member of our Party agrees with us on everything. NEVER!

However, we CAN have a party where the majority is prolife, pro Second Amendment and anti tax.

There are parts of the country where it would be hard for a person that I would ever want as President to win as Governor or in any other race.

We are in a war for the survival of our American way of life. As Reagan said, someone who agrees with you 80% of the time is your friend, not your enemy.

Lets get rid if the Communists and Socialists and Anti-American nuts out there, all most all of whom are in the Democrat Party!

Also, remember, whoever wins in the Primary MUST have some broad voter appeal, in the general election.

— Republican firing squads always form a circle, EVEN WHEN THEIR ARE PLENTY OF DEMS TO SHOOT AT!
