How can you not know the OP is the Site OWNER?
You are short for the world if you are going to call a website’s owner ignorant.
I've been a Freeper for a long time and a lurker longer than that. I came here because of the conservative thought and discussion. I stayed because I got addicted. I respect what has been built here and the man who built it, but unlike others, I am not a lemming.
I voted for Newt in my state's primary and would happily vote for any of the other Republican candidates in the general election, with the exception of Mittens. He is a buffoon and does not possess a single conservative instinct. In my opinion, he is almost the same as Hillary politically.
The reality though, is there is going to be an election in November. Two candidates are going to be in contention to win and as long as Obama is one of them, I will vote for the other. Period. If Romney gets the Republican nomination I will vote for him, as long as Obama is the opponent. If by some chance Obama get's run off and Hillary became the Democrat nominee, I would likely reconsider and simply abstain.
For me anyway, the difference is this: Romney (and Hillary for that matter) are liberals and will push for liberal policies. The United States will likely survive either of them. I'm not so sure about Obama. If he get's elected, what exactly is going to keep him in check? He ignores the seperation of powers and the constitution and is actively trying to drive us into ruin. No matter how bad the policies of Mittens and the Hildebeast, they are infinately preferrable to an unfettered Obama.
I'll NEVER be a Romney supporter, but I may end up voting for him. Sometimes you have to give immunity to the drug dealer to convict the murderer. If it ends up being an elcetion between Romney and Obama, I for one will hold my nose and vote Romney. Then at least I will live to fight another day. If we all stand by and vote 3rd party or write-in, I'm not sure the country does live for another day. I choose life.
