Newbie to Free Republic

Me

[TPD_Jim.Smith]

I am new to Free Republic. I look forward to being a small part of this community.

I see by many of the postings that most of the posters on this website are ANTI-Romney. That is good because I am too. I am a conservative from Tallahassee, Florida.

I am torn between Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum. Reading some of the postings I see there are passionate folks on the Newt side as well as on the Rick side.

I am leaning toward Rick Santorum because I think he can best beat Romney in the Primary and frankly I think ANYONE can beat Obama in the general. So my gut tells me to support the most conservative in the race.

I am also a Christian Homeschooling dad so you might see why I favor Rick Santorum but I can support Newt in the general election should he win the nomination. I don't think I can stomach voting for Romney though.

Any advise for a newbie?

A good way to start; might be to put a list together of all the things you admire about the current President.

Yeah, try the crab-cakes, they're delicious

Be advised that this is Newtrepublic. Any criticism of Newt invites extreme “correction”. Any favorable comments towards Santorum will be relentlessly mocked and derided. You get used to it, though, so don't despair. There are other fellow traveler sweater vest dorks about that show up occasionally (me for one).

Maybe if you ask him nicely, he will start your requested blog and excert from it so we can all learn what he is thinking as I am sure we would all be interested.

...on the other hand...

It seems as though the newbie has posted a hit and run vanity.

The Florida primary is already over. If you didn’t already vote, you no longer have a voice in the matter except to persuade those who haven’t yet voted.

I’m here just a tad over 3 weeks

Well, well. Since it's looking doubtful that Jim Smith is going to come back to his thread, let me welcome YOU to FreeRepublic!

Welcome!

Oh, great-another Santos supporter.

Welcome.

[Doogle]

"...here comes another one, hope he bought his own depends, this switching them around stuff only works on the young ones...WELCOME "

[lonevoice]

Be advised that Santorum supporters show up on nearly every totally unrelated thread to complain about the mean things other FReepers say about sweater vests...especially those Gingrich weirdos!

[Osage Orange]

Noobs touching each other!!!
