A lot of people on FR, myself included, believed that the Clintons had something to do with the death (murder?) of Vince Foster, and various and sundry other people.

If that were actually the case then at one time our president was someone who was willing to kill to stay in office.

And yet somehow we stumbled through. We stumbled through the FDR presidency, the LBJ Great Society, the Carter debacle, etc.

At each time we were a bit worse off, but hope has never been completely lost.

0bamba might be incompentent, he might even have some nefarious plans to take us further to the left, or towards Islam, or towards Fascism, or whatever 'ism' he is supposedly following, but he is no ubermensch that is capable of turning this country into a dictatorship.

If by some miracle he actually does take over the country it will be because of all of the tools he was given by Bush (Carnivore, Homeland Security, Patriot Act, etc.)

I do not want to give Romney, the tool incarnate, the chance to provide future Democrat administrations with more tools with which to reinforce our chains. I've already seen what it's like to have Romney as a leader, however in California we called him Schwarznegger.

I am not a purist. I don't think we need someone who is 100% dyed in the wool conservative, but it would be nice if we could put up someone who represents at least the right-center of the Republican Party.

If 0bama was such a socialist, why is he so in bed with the bankers? The real danger we face is not socialism, but a corporate plutocracy papered over with a thin veneer of eurotrash chic.

If 0bama tries to go Chavez on our a**es, then Goldman-Sachs will go medieval on his campaign funds!

And I don't even know why we're even worrying about Romney in the first place.

He's too Mormon for the Fundies, and not Mormon enough for the Mormons. That's a twofer that no candidate can overcome.

Mitt set the template for NObama HELLTH care with the Massachussetts plan that HE signed.

That will haunt him to his grave.

As life-long Republican, I will NEVER vote for Mitt or Huckster.

I will send money to his opposition, even on FROZEN Social Security.

If he runs in the primary, I’ll vote for someone else. If he makes it to the general, I’ll vote for someone else. Would that put President 0 back in the White House? Maybe. Would it matter? I doubt it. Romney is as much a socialist as Obama- Romneycare is conclusive evidence of that, aside from other things that indicate Romney is a Northeastern gun-grabbing liberal. If he won the general, he would in all probability govern just like his predecessor. Therefore, just say no to Northeastern gun-grabbing liberals. The Republican party needs to run someone that presents a distinct alternative to the Democommunists and that isn’t any of the establishment people.

Your post at 64 appears as though you are quoting me.

You are not.

“Thanks for posting—we need to know what the enemy is up to.” - is your reply to a comment I did not make.
