I remain skeptical of telephone interviews. Notice it's not registered or likely voters.
It appears someone really, really wants to convince people that Romney really is acceptable to conservatives. Just like McCain.....
Whomever is embracing Romney, it isn’t conservatives.
Total baloney.
I am a conservative and I support Romney. Nothing unusual about this. I also support Santorum and would support Newt, even though I don’t like his baggage.
Approval rating? What’s that? That’s so 20th Century. Here in the 2010’s, we have “acceptability ratings”. By the 20s that will be morphed into “doesn’t make me barf” ratings, which by the ‘30s will become “doesn’t drive me to homicidal rage to hear his name uttered” ratings.
Bull. Not around here. Not in this conservative, Christian home. Not him. Not his unbelief. He supports homosexual marriage. Not this house. No way no how. I WILL NOT VOTE FOR THIS GUY, PERIOD!
“Mitt Romney is the only 2012 candidate whom a majority of Republicans — including conservatives”
If true then there is no way that I am a Republican and I am beginning to question the meaning of the term “conservative.”
Gallup has been letting its liberal stripes show in several absurd polls they’ve released this week. I’m thinking they’re starting to do their part to pull out the stops for Obama. I don’t believe for a second that conservatives are rallying behind Romney, unlike many of our inside-the-beltway pseudo-”conservative” columnist/pundit counterparts.
Gallup is a BS poll. No real conservatives embrace the liberal Romney. Polls come out for one reason. To try and influence people into voting one way or the other. Case in point is after Iowa when Willard Gekko “won” by 8 votes. Now remember this was in Iowa. More than half way across the country from SC. Willard Gekko had been losing to Gingrich by over 20 points in every poll taken in SC. All the sudden Willard Gekko “wins” Iowa and polls come out showing him now beating Gingrich by over 20 points in the very conservative state of South Carolina. In otherwords South Carolinians are mindless sheeple that automatically follow the lead of Iowa. Utter nonsense. The gallup poll and Rasmussen started showing the liberal Romney not only winning in SC, but destroying the competition. These polls want us to think all the sudden the people of SC have a love affair with a New England liberal and there is no reason to even have a primary. These damn snap polls that come out every day should be abolished. The lamestream media, and polls are part of the lamestream media, only exist to make their favorite candidate look good.
The establishment quacks want Romney. No one else.
Liberal conservatives support Romney. Likewise conservative liberals do the same.
Romney Gives Mass. Health Reform an 'A' (in July, 2009)
"The portrait depicts the governor seated at the front edge of his desk wearing his trademark business suit. Beside him is a small framed photo of his wife, Ann, and ... [wait for it] ... a copy of the health care reform law he called his greatest achievement.
The Portrait of a Health Care 'Reformer' [aka Big Government] (Mitt loves him some Romneycare!)
Romney is a vote of last resort only.
And, unless the conservatives, Santorum, Perry and Newt quickly coalese and boil down to a single conservative, so they can garner all of the conservative vote behind one candidate, we will be faced with Romney winning the nomination.
He takes a part of the conservatives, but a majority of the moderates and independents.
We simply have to see a single good conservative going up against him, then that person will ride that wave to the nomination.
But it better happen soon, no later, IMHO, then right after SC. Otherwise, if Romney ends up winning Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina (because of the split vote for conservatives) and then Florida for the same reasons...the momentum will be hard to stop.
So, Santorum, Perry, and Gingrich, get together after NH...or no later than after SC and make the hard decisions for the sake of the country. Which ever of you three has garnered the most vote and delegates at that point should be endorsed by the other two who then drop out and throw their support behind that person.
Othewrwise it will be Romney against Obama. I do believe Romney can win, and that he owuld be far better than Obama...but also far less than what we as conservatives want and need to post haste begin turning this nation around and back to its fundamental, moral and conservative roots.
I'd rather eat the steak, but I'll take a balogna sandwich over a turd burger any day!
What the hell. Shady numbers and other countless problems with the poll aside, how does “acceptable” translate to “embrace”?
BOY oh boy do they ever want to shove Myth down our throats.
As for me and conservatives worthy of the title — FUMR!!!!!
Who are these mystery conservatives?
I have had enough of it. I will not pull the lever for Romeny. I will however work hard for house-critters to try and get more TEA Party elected.
I simply cannot pin my hopes on this Government being "fixed" when all we are offered is socialism and socialism-lite. It will be up to the House of Representatives to help fix the mess this country is in fiscally not to mention regulatory.
The GOP can pound sand.
That’s odd because I don’t know a single conservative, or even a moderate that even thinks about voting for Romney. The only people that say they like him are registered Democrats.
I see and talk to a lot of people on a daily basis.
Really? Then why isn’t he getting 59% of the vote!
