What is your purpose on this forum? To tell us to surrender and that we cannot win?

Romney will never be able to win against Obama. He couldn’t even win against McCain!

What a stupid straw poll.

Not natural born, does not qualify to run as president.


Curious..... where is natural born defined or set out in the Constitution or otherwise? I know it is used that parents must be citizens but I guess I’m asking where do you find that definition incorporated within the Constitution?

Like I said. NO surprise. Hey, but since you see no prob having Socialists overrun the party, how ‘bout we put out an invite to the Clintons ? We could run Hillary herself in 2012. After all, it’s about beating the False Messiah, right ? Who needs Conservative principles ? Right, Norm ?

What a stupid straw poll.


That maybe but the voters in the straw poll were the attendees to the CPAC conference just completed today in DC.

Slick Willard lied, the Maucks died.

"You offered nothing but smoke-and-mirrors misinterpretations, distortions, and bait-and-switch."

Are you accusing me of BEING Slick Willard, Norm ?

Looks like the Store Mannequin packed the ballot boxes again.

Meanwhile, up in Wasilla, they weren't terribly concerned....

Best,

Chris

If you think Romney and the Clintons are the same you’re nuts. Get serious.

To wake people up, lest they keep trying to put their trust in anything or anyone other than the only One Who can save them to the uttermost.

who consider it a badge of courage to take the dollar rather than settle for three with the hopes of getting more in the future.

////////////////
The demonrats got their 5 dollar bill this time around.

We got ours in Reagan in 1980. So I will continue to wear my badge, voting for the best person for President. Not who I think will win, nor whom I am told has the best chance of winning.

I apologize. The Clintons are far more honest than Slick Willard.

I don't think the attendees of CPAC today, are the same type of hardcore conservatives who supported Reagan back in the early days of CPAC in the 1970`s.

How about you?

Do you think Romney would have won a straw poll of conservatives say in 1977?

Do you have any sense of shame, Norm ? You apologize for a scum Socialist pro-criminal Governor, toss two innocent people that are victims of his actions under a bus, and then you have the nerve to slime President Reagan to justify Slick Willard’s disgusting conduct. You’re not a Conservative, Norm.

He’s getting up there. 2012 is likely cut off time.

The big question remains, WHY would a Conservative convention invite a renowned big-government Socialist fraud to address them ? They might as well have invited the False Messiah. At least the False Messiah is honest about his REAL political affiliation.
