Great point here. I don't see Mittens winning because he has a ceiling in his polling that he can't break through. When some more people drop out, the anti Myth candidate will get all that other support and beat him. That said, if this POS manages to get's the nomination, I'm going to have to think hard about what to do. I can't survive another 4 years of Obummer. Also if we can get more Tea Party people to take the Senate and in the House, we have a better chance of strong arming Mittens into doing what we want. He seems very pliable in his views.
I don’t have to think hard about it at all. I’ll vote for Romney against Obama. Or Perry. Cain? Not so sure.
“if we can get more Tea Party people to take the Senate and in the House, we have a better chance of strong arming Mittens into doing what we want. He seems very pliable in his views.”
How many more? I think that we have a better chance of Republican solidarity against the president if he has a (D) after his name. Do you think the established Republicans would fight against an established Republican with similar agenda to the liberal Democrats?
I don’t.
We are between a rock and a hard place - witness the destruction caused by giving them two years to run amuck, and it is easy to say that anybody but O is ok with us. But in the long run, if we can cement a majority in congress opposed to him enough to block him (oh, that failed democracy in action) we may be better off than having a moderate/liberal man with an (R) who will not be sufficiently opposed when he does a lot of the same stupid stuff.
There are probably several people who will get me to go third party if it comes to it, Romney is one of them. I am not sure that the “at least he is better than” argument is sufficient anymore, and that it may have gotten us into this mess in the first place.
