So, you'll vote for a third party or stay home? Either one, is a vote for Bowbama!
I am going to work my behind off to ensure that I do NOT have to make the choice between Romney and Obama. I hope everybody here will do the same.
For me, that includes being willing to jump to ANYBODY else’s candidate who shows they can beat Romney.
So far, the only candidate who has shown any ability to pass by Romney is Perry, but he fell back down to earth. Cain looked like he was going there, but has levelled off, and looks like at best a strong second to Romney. That won’t do.
Bachmann was doing well before the Iowa straw poll, but then she fell apart.
Frankly, if I didn’t know that so many conservatives are just turned off by Newt, I might even be jumping on HIS bandwagon. He might go down in flames, but it would be a fun trip.
So now I’m holding out hope that either Cain inherits a functional campaign (like maybe Santorum drops out or something?), or Perry’s back gets better so he can get off the pain medication, stop looking like he’s wearing a back brace, and go back to being the guy who I’ve seen kick serious butt before.
The country is split 40-30-30, with conservatives having a strong plurality but difficulty getting to 51.
This makes two-way races very hard for us.
Romney and Obama are going to split the 60% commie-RINO coalition right down the middle.
How many conservative votes do you think Romney will get if the conservative candidate is not a paranoid dwarf from Texas with no political experience?
You guys keep saying Romney and a conservative will split the conservative vote. That makes no sense at all.
The reality is that the "real conservative" vote won't go much over 40%, because it can't.
THEREFORE, a three way or four way race is exactly what is required to elect a conservative.
