The first problem with your scenario is it assumes that Romney's unethical and dubious gamesmanship would somehow be discounted by the truly principled Michele Bachmann. Bachmann will never team up with the likes of atheistic socialist Romney.

The second problem with your scenario is that you assume that Americans will bring in two RINOs and one true conservative into the GOP nomination and the only conservative would be forced to accept a VP position under one of the two big and one world government RINOs Romney or Perry.

If either Perry or Romney get the nod, Obama will win again. Conservatives, real conservatives, will never vote for the RINOs again. They've learned their lesson of what got us to the point where socialists like Romney, Perry and Pawlenty run under the GOP umbrella.

My family and it is a rather large family all agree we will write in a conservative and let Obama go down with the ship rather than endorse the socialists to take us down. We're ashamed we voted for big government G. W. Bush and it will never happen again on out backs.

What does it profit a man who gains the world but loses his soul.

Riiiight.

You seem like a well intentioned person, so rather than a argue this point by point, I'll just give you a general angle to consider.

Your reply, including this paragraph, is very principled and very naiive. Our system of government, from the very first day, was designed to promote the lesser of two evils. You get as much as you can take, unless you get too greedy, and then you get nothing. There's a great quote in my profile by Ronald Reagan on just this point.

Michelle Bachmann is a junior congresswoman with solid philosophical credentials and no real accomplishments. She knows perfectly well that she has no chance of being President. She's running for vice president, in a race where Romney is the presumed front runner. She's taken no real swipes at him, only at the others running for Vice President. In fact, she's precisely designed like Palin was for McCain; a conservative booster shot for a sagging RINO.

This is just how the world works. You can hope and pray against it, but, like your entire post, it's not political analysis, it's heart felt projection.
