Cried Actor Ronald Reagan, co-chairman of California’s Citizens for Goldwater and an early-form pick among right-wingers for the state’s 1966 gubernatorial nomination: “We don’t intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended.”
Between rounds of golf, Goldwater himself took time out to lambast such middle-roading Republicans as Governors Nelson Rockefeller of New York and George Romney of Michigan ...
ALL of you Romney supporters I pinged on this post -- TAdamse, Enchiladita, Edit, Barnie -- is Nana's post and are Reagan's and Goldwater's words, representative of "hatred" and anti-Mormon bigotry and vehemence, as you so solidly believe is what drives we "haters" (your word, not mine) who oppose Mitt Romney and want to see him rejected from the GOP lineup of power-players ASAP so he is prevented from draining the finances and resources of worthy conservative candidadtes who, as long as Romney is competiting against them, will have to waste time and money countering his duplicity?
You dare to continue to whine and cry that Romney only lost because of "hatred"???
Is it possible that you are the ones consumed by hatred for those conservatives who disagree with you and reject Romney? But again, just like mother who sighs wearily when her little girl screams, "Mommy, you HATE me!" because mom won't let her stay up until midnight, we know you don't really hate us -- you are just angry, irrational, and emotional.
