Romney will be so far down in the polls by October that both independents and conservatives will be praying for anybody but Obama or Romney. Romney is a disaster waiting to happen. He has absolutely no core convictions other than his unwavering allegiance to the LDS Leadership. His flip flops will kill his candidacy. He bought the nomination. He did it by pretending to be the most conservative candidate in the race when in fact he was the least conservative candidate. He will try to run as a "moderate" which means pandering to every single focus group that wouldn't vote for a republican if their life depended on it. He will lose the base and the INDEPENDENTS are the ones who will sit this election out unless there is a third party alternative.

The GOP has committed suicide by nominating this buffoon. The open primaries allowed it to happen. A third party may be our only hope.

FWIW Ross Perot would have won this upcoming election by a landslide.

I have friends that are fiscal conservatives who are stunned that I'm not going to vote for Romney. I've tried explaining to them as a Christian how important the social issues are to me, but they just think social conservatives are wrong to place such a high emphasis on these issues.

I agree that it's wrong to have Rats vote in our primaries. I think the answer is to have closed primaries voting in order from the highest vote % for the previous Pub candidate to the lowest. As it is now Texas never voted for the candidates, but NY and IL did vote.
