"Darn tootin. Not to mention his gay marriage BS and his pimping for the so-called 'assault weapons ban', amongst 1000 other liberal idiocies. "

Bush and Cheney supported the so-called "Assault Weapons Ban" and that did not stop republicans from supporting them for reelection.

Bush and Cheney (much more the former than the latter) are the catastrophe from which we are trying to recover. Their various heresies hardly count in Romney's favor.

Never again. No more progressive Republicans. They've been a blight on our national existence ever since TR. They enable, reinforce and entrench all the damage that the left does. They never help repair it. Hoover, Landon, Wilke, Dewey, Eisenhower, Nixon, Ford, Bush, Dole, Bush, McCain — Some won, some lost, some won and then lost but they all hurt the conservative cause. The winners hurt it more than the losers.

We have to finish the job Reagan started and ideologically cleanse the Republican Party. We can't do that with the likes of Willard at the top of the ticket.
