“they appear to be Perry or Cain supporters but they are Romney supporters.”
But is this something that you KNOW or is this simply your opinion?
“So now Im being attacked because I am stating what I have been seeing.”
Well to be honest with you, I think you are being attacked for not naming names after making a pretty serious accusation.
Should Romney gain the nomination, we will not vote for him. The GOP knows that we have traditionally held our noses to vote for the lesser of evils but no more. We also will not vote for Olympia Snowe.
He was perfectly clear, and I did not express any disagreement whatsoever with him or with the original post that he made.
My question was to someone who said that they would support Romney in the general election, because in their view Romney was with them 40%.
So I asked that person which 60% of Romney's positions they disagreed with.
Romney is a pro-abortion, gun grabbing advocate for gay rights that supports the global warming tripe and believes that the government should be able to force me to purchase health-care.
I agree 100%. I can't stand Romney.
“He’ll do and say anything if he thinks it will help him get elected. He’s a two-bit, unprincipled political whore. “
If Willard heard you have to be psychedelic to be elected president, he’d already be tie-dyed.
You first.
Do you think having Obama-lite is worse than having Obama?

They are the same politically. The ‘lite’ is a reference to Mitt being white.
I will not further a man who thinks he is fulfilling prophecy.
Playing the race card makes you all three in my book.
You are not being attacked. You have been asked - repeatedly - to name them.
How is that an 'attack'?
If you can point out ONE closet Romney supporter who claims to be a Cain supporter, I will eat them myself.
I have proven, over and over again, the I value truth above all else. I will not tolerate someone who claims to be my ally in order to undermine my candidate.
So give me a hand here. Who are these people?
You are all 3.
In case you are still laboring under the insane assumption that FR has been overly kind to romney, this thread should disabuse you of that notion in a heartbeat.
Yet you have the nerve to accuse long-time FReepers of being racists.
I would hope you would do the same if you think we may have a Romney supporter amongst us. They seem to be the most disruptive on both Perry and Cain threads.
VIDEO clips of Romney/Kennedy Debates: Liberals For Romney - More Liberal than Ted Kennedy
Before rushing like lemmings to get aboard "The Cain Train", FReepers should really consider where the Cain Train has been, where the Cain Train has made recent stops and what the Cain Train's ultimate destination is.
I know that this is a minority opinion on FR, and so be it, but it is my firm belief that Herman Cain is acting like a stalking horse for Mitt Romney for the reasons listed and backed up below.
1.) All Cain attacks are directed at Perry.
2.) No Cain attacks are directed at Romney.
3.) Cain has stated that he will not support Perry even against Marxist Obama
4.) Cain has said that he is willing to support Romney.
5.) During October, Cain is focusing on selling books on a national book tour instead of focusing on the logistical "Beans & Bullets" needed to win the Primary Wars that will start in the near future.
6.) In my opinion, for the above reasons, Cain's ultimate goal is to become the next conservative premier speaking tour draw and the next Huckabee on FOX News while leaving the GOP nomination to Romney.
Ask yourselves these questions, fellow FReepers:
Which candidate is not building up a campaign war chest (the logistical "Beans & Bullets" of an electoral war) because he is spending October hawking his book instead of paying attention to the logistics of a serious campaign?
Michael Steele to Herman Cain: Get Off the Book Tour
Which candidate has been focusing all of his attacks on Perry while treating Romney with kid gloves?
Which candidate endorsed Mitt Romney in 2008?
While spending October on a national book-signing tour, which candidate is leaving the GOP major donors to be harvested by Mitt Romney?
Romney Rounds Up Backing Among Key G.O.P. Donors
Conservatives are now infatuated by a "Sound Bite Machine" without ever noticing that the candidate is focusing his energies on selling books and marketing himself as a paid speaker rather than focusing on what it takes to fight and win a prolonged electoral war.
A campaign war chest is the "Beans and Bullets" of a serious electoral war. If you want to know if a candidate is truly serious about fighting to win, pay attention to how much attention they are paying to the logistics required to win.
"Amateurs talk about strategy and professionals talk about logistics." .... Omar Bradley
After Cain leaves the battlefield after soon running out of "Beans & Bullets" and leaves Mitt Romney with Cain's support, conservatives will be left with Perry severely wounded by attacks that have come from conservatives themselves.
Perry, like anybody that has actually governed and has an actual governing record for over a decade, is not perfect and never will be. As a debater, Perry is not all that great. But, don't bury Perry too soon because Perry may be the only thing standing between Mitt Romney and the GOP nomination by next Spring.
Can Perry still beat Obama after being gang-mugged by conservatives?
So far, the answer is still, "Yes".
this is going to be an interestingalbeit lonely place.

Interesting reading...
Lots of zotted lonely RudiBots...
Jims still here...
I have more respect for Obama than I do Romney. Obama wants to destroy the Republic and said so; Romney just wants to be top dog of the planet. If we can't get a man of good character now, we never well. It is time to be brave.
We should all do the same.
It's all there in black and white.
Oh please...they would taste nasty. :o)
