I’m not even a huge fan of Romney, really. I do respect him though, and remember the great CPAC speech he gave. He is definitely a rising force in this party.
But I’m a firm believer in the old axiom that “the perfect is the enemy of the good.”
Too many people here forget that. You can’t achieve ALL your political goals in one fell swoop, and there will never, ever, ever be a perfect candidate.
I couldn’t have stated that any better.
Good. I take the harelipped dwarf that is a Conservative, rather than the tall good looking opportunist carpet bagging flip flopper.
Thank you! Good post! : )
No, I’m pretty sure no one forgets that since everyone who backs a RINO repeatedly reminds us. And as we repeatedly tell all of you, we’re not looking for someone who’s perfect. We’re just looking for one actual conservative with guts who means what they say and will do as they preach to the best of their ability. Shouldn’t be that difficult to find one, but when we do find a few they get torn to shreds by the RINO/Establishment wing of the GOP that wants to crush conservatism. Then afterwards they go out and claim conservatism is dead conveniently ignoring they were the ones that killed or wounded its latest representative and their enlightened path has lead to even more losses in elections.
Romney belongs to that wing by default. He’s sympathetic to their principles but he’s also utterly without center and will shift on a dime if he thought it would elect him President.
