In due time. But whoever I support will be a conservative first, or I’ll support no one.
Bush was a short term gain (judges, WOT, etc,) but a long term disaster for America. His panicky pushing of the imminent “economic collapse” and Paulson’s Wall Street banker bailout package to “save us” from the Great Depression II cost us the election and set the precedent for Obama’s all out plunge into full-blown socialism. And ditto on McCain. His support for the trillion dollar bailout cost him the election. Together, they’ve just about doomed our free enterprise system. Romney would drive the final nails into the pine box coffin lid. America, RIP.
"Their goal is to highlight conservative policy ideas and draw contrasts with Democratic President Barack Obama."
You can remain as obstinate as you want, but it remains true that people like yourself are responsible for nominating McCain .... and thus the terrible situation the GOP/conservatives find ourselves.
Romney was by far the strongest and yes, most conservative and articulate, of the Republican presidential candidates in 2008.
Which is why Romney was supported by 90% of the thinking ultra conservatives in America, like Rick Santorum, Paul Weyrich, Levin, Hewitt, Ann Coulter, Bob Jones III, James Dobson, even Limbaugh supported Romney although he stuck to his vow not to “endorse.”
I truly believe the wing of conservatism represented here on FR was responsible for destroying Romney from within the party, and thus became a willing dupe for the Democrats.
On every issue, Romney was to the right of McCain....
Immigration, judges, taxes, (McCain voted no on the Bush tax cuts), school choice, ... and a half dozen others I can’t recall cause I’m so tired of writing them over and over.
I’m still ticked. McCain had absolutely NO BUSINESS even running for pres, at 72 y.o. with recurring cancer and a nasal irritating voice, boring as all get out, and an enemy of the faith based Christians, like myself.
Great, McCain was a valiant POW. He deserves a military medal, NOT the presidency. He was ALWAYS an enemy of the CHRIstian right. ALWAYS.
McCain is the one who destroyed the GOP, by simply teaming up with Hucklebee to destroy Romney.
