I am not going to change my principles and vote for that creep. It is not our fault that the GOPe wants him to be the nominee. They can have him. I am writing in Santorum, Palin, Cain, or Bachmann. I have not decided which yet, but I will before November.

That's insane. Look, folks: Politics is a dirty filthy game but at this level it's literally life and death for the nation. You sound like a little kid stamping his foot and threatening to hold his breath until DEATH unless he get's his "way." Life isn't fair and our system might not be the best, but it's the best in the world until Christ returns. You fight like mad for your candidate but if the country chooses somebody else, you have to rally around the candidate and hope that a conservative Congress keeps him in check. Because the alternative for your "principles" will leave all our kids at slavery's door. The same "principles" made the folks who built the atomic bomb dig in their heels and refuse to finish because Germany surrendered and thus the real threat to the world was gone. They were against nuking Japan. Had that threat stood, a MILLION men would have been killed invading the Japanese homeland. Among them, my late father in law and thus my wife might not ever have been born! Imagine the lives altered irrevocably over political principles that really boil down to pettiness. All it takes for evil to succeed is that good men stand around and do nothing. Not an exact quote but close enough. Sound familiar? It should.

A “grown-up” approach to politics. We need more of this.
I would rather it be Newt, but he has baggage also.

At least, Romney can pull votes from the middle and left of middle who are disgusted with BO. Those folks would have a hard time voting for Santorum or Newt.

We should be discussing the VP pick and trying to send input thru polls to help the ticket win.
IMHO, this country cannot stand another 4 years of BO. If he wins, we will have a stampede of our citizens moving to Mexico and Canada. That would be the people who have funds to live down there and there goes more taxpayers. Then, who will pay for Michele’s vacations?
