Romney: Conservatives Who Don't Like Me Now Will Learn To When I'm The Nominee (video)
RealClearPolitics ^ | RealClearPolitics

Posted on 03/14/2012 4:00:22 PM PDT by i88schwartz

Mitt Romney talks to FOX News' Megyn Kelly about attracting support from conservative voters.

"When you ask in these prior elections, 'who as conservatives did you vote?,' I won the conservative vote. Some who are very conservative may not yet be in my camp, but they will be when I become the nominee, when I face Barack Obama. Because again, what the nation wants is someone who understands the economy, not, if you will, an economy lightweight. I mean, Senator Santorum is a nice guy but he does not understand how the economy works. He's never had a job in the real economy. You have to understand this economy in order to fix it," he said.

Can you not read?

Obama and his crew in the MSM will slaughter Romney with his own PROGRESSIVE LIBERAL record, driving away conservative independents, and the conservative Christian base in numbers that will cause Romney to lose much worse than McCain.

Romney will get slaughtered.

Tell me why the record that follows will not be used by the most unethical, immoral, Marxist, Crypto-Communist to destroy confidence in the voting electorate in a candidate such as Romney:

1. Supported Gay Adoption as Governor.
2. Implemented and Supported Gay Marriage as Governor
3. Supported Abortion as Governor
4. Supported the Brady Bill
5. Implemented an "Assault" Weapons Ban at the state-level AFTER the Federal AWB was allowed to elapse.
6. Believes in Global Warming.
7. Supported a state-level Cap-N-Trade system as Governor.
8. Supported TARP.
9. Supported Amnesty for Illegal Aliens (Pathway to Citizenship).
10. Implemented a SOCIALISTIC HealthCare Insurance model in MA that included $50 Abortions and an Individual Mandate.

You are a misguided nutjob. If Romney wins the primary, who are you going to vote for genius? The state of fl got my vote for Newt.. please don’t sit out. The kenyan doesn’t need another four years..

You are a Don Quixote, thinking that Romney can win the election.

The Dems are salivating at running Obama against him because they know that Romney, with his EXTREME LEFT-WING RECORD AS GOVERNOR, is the only candidate they can beat.

Your guy Romney is toast, he doesn't have a chance in hell of winning the general election, that is why the MSM has taken it so easy on him, while trying to destroy both Santorum and Gingrich.

You're backing a loser!

So you would rather have Obama for another 4 years?

You would cut off your nose to spite your face?

I’m getting very afraid now hearing people talking about not voting....That is what got us Obama...I don’t like Mitt either.I did not vote for him tuesday,I voted for Newt but are you going to just sit this out and give Obama another 4 years to completely destroy this country? We MUST get Obama out of the White House. I know Mitt is not the best choice but the alternative is so much worse.

I voted for who I wanted tuesday, and I WILL vote for who I MUST in November.

I’m voting AGAINST him in my primary, for a Conservative, but if he’s the nominee I’ll vote for him.

What do you two recommend? Third party? BS. That gives it to Bammy for sure.

Once again, WHAT ARE YOU DOING? Spell it out!

So we have to elect you, in order to find out how you will governn?

Sort of like we had to pass the Obamacare bill to find out what was in the bill?

This statement alone should disqualify you

Mittens; this statement reminds me of how my aunt described someone to my Mom:

"Oh! Here comes Mrs. Smith. Now you won't care much for her when you first meet her. But after you get to know her, you won't care for her at all."

IF ROMNEY WINS I AM WRITING-IN PALIN

Do not sit home if you can’t hold your nose and vote for Mittens- MAKE SURE you vote for a Republican Congress

Then write-in whoever you like for President

If it keeps Obambi in office- thats OK as long as we get a Republican Congress who can ram Obamacare back down his throat and see h ow he likes it

Lack-of-choices syndrome.

At the moment of truth, faced with two options (plus some others which have no hope of winning and affect only making it harder for one of the two to win), most conservatives will choose Romney. This will be immediately followed by mumbling “well that sucked, better go hunker down for the crash” or some such realization that choosing the lesser of two evils still nets evil.

Thanks for your reply and I do agree the GOP has everything to do with the Romney candidate, as do the Dims. The Bush family history is interesting, but given their roots, it all fits. Appreciate your time.

I’m doing it. I’m warning you and the Republican Party: Do not nominate Mitt.

You should listen.

Those of you putting energy into trying to convince the rest of us conservatives to vote for ROmney if he is the candidate are flogging a dead horse, he CANNOT WIN!

But if he's the candidate? Gonna vote for Mitt Romney or Barack Obama or Ross Footbullet?

Anyone reading my posting history knows that I have supported voting for the eventual Republican nominee in any and all elections.

Romney????? I will turn my back on him if he is the nominee, and concentrate on electing Republican candidates in all other races. Just so my vote is not mis-interpreted as an under-vote or a mis-vote I will vote 3rd party for President.

FUMR.... Writ large!

If the O gets another term, imagine how many boomers will retire, take SS early, and go underground.
