A reminder for those who are not receiving the message:
Romney is a pathological compulsive liar. Lie after lie papered over with more lies. Doesnt even flinch when caught in bald faced lies, simply tells another big whopper to cover up or dodge the issue. Funny thing, the man actually seems to believe his own latest lies and simply ignores the glaring record of his past actions/lies. And you have true blue establishment elite RINO Republicans like Karl Rove enabling and backing up his lies. Their motivation is simply to hang on to power (and riches) any way they can.
Ive stated many times since Romney started running for the presidency way back when that Id never vote for him and I will not. He cannot lie his way out of his decades long record of support for abortion, Roe v Wade, planned parenthood, gay rights, gun control, global warming, amnesty, liberal judges, big government, compulsory or socialized health care (RomneyCommieCare), mandates, Keynesian economics, support and approval of TARP, bailouts, stimulus packages, i.e, every damn liberal progressive issue that comes down the pike.
Cmon. These are the reasons the tea party sprang up and the reasons he and Rove loathe the tea party and our tea party conservative candidates. Romney famously expressed his loathing for Reagan-Bush conservatism several years ago when he was trying to run to the left of Ted Kennedy and now hes cloaking himself in Reagan conservatism, knowing full well that its a lie, but he knows its the only way he can possibly win, er buy the Republican nomination.
Screw Romney!! I absolutely will not support or vote for a proven compulsive liar with a known record of abortion and big government socialism, liberal appointments, etc. He still lies about RomneyCommieCare today. Calls it a conservative solution. Get real!!
Listen to what Ronald Reagan had to say about the elites pushing socialism on America via compulsory health insurance:
Ronald Reagan speaks out against RomneyCommieCare
There will be no campaign for this Massachusetts liberal liar on FR!!
Damn the libs and RINOS, full steam ahead!!
But no matter what happens we must turn out in November to vote IN as many conservatives and vote OUT as many rats as possible at all levels of government. If we don't have a conservative at the top of the ticket we must turn out anyway and vote straight conservative DOWN ticket!! Just think of it an off cycle election and pour on the TEA!! It'll be doubly important that we control both houses of congress and as many statehouses as possible.
Restore the 10th amendment!! Impeach the leftist president whoever he may be!! Restore Liberty!! Rebellion comes from the bottom up!!
WOO HOO!! I CAN SEE NOVEMBER FROM MY HOUSE!!
No Bama!! No Romney!! Go tea party rebellion!!
"If you don't exercise, you're never going to be thin."

plus, he likely won’t win anyway
Romney's already a loser...and the GOP-e -- not us -- picked the loser...
If the GOP-e wanted to -- for a change of pace -- consider its base & who we would support, it wouldn't have given us Romney.
I can;t beleive Im even readign htat conservatives are even contemplating throwign hteir votes away on a candidate that has no chance to win...
Romney is the one that has no chance of winning--especially after the MSM permanently tarnashes the GoP reputation for picking a man who gave 10% of his adult income to an openly racist org for 13 years.
Let's say a 3rd-party candidate gets 13%...
..Given that the Republicans have less than 30% of all registered voters -- and many of them won't vote for Romney -- I'd be surprised if Romney gets 32-33%...
If Obama gets 46% but takes more key states...
...& minority-party candidates split the rest...
...then you 32-percenters have not only wasted your vote [voting for a guy who didn't have a chance to win -- getting less than 1/3rd of the country's vote]...
...but seared your conscience forever...
...you've permanently lost ANY ground upon which to criticize ANY big-government/socialized boondoggle...having supported a big-govt socialist boondoggle candidate yourself...
...and pro-lifers voting for Romney have permanently lost ANY ground to critique other pro-abortion candidates...
...conservatives woudl rather romney lost than to vote for someone they arent entirely comfortable with...
Really? Somebody (Romney) advocating less than 4.5 years ago -- three years after supposedly becoming "pro-life" -- that it's "OK" for parents to give up their offspring to "research" is only "discomforting" to you?
Tell you what? Why don't you do some online research about what aborted babies look like...and then realize how Romney is still fostering taxpayer-funded abortions...and then take your "not entirely comfortable" crap to hell where it was conceived -- and is giving birth on threads like these.
lol.
I thought that was a pretty long term. heh
The biggest reason we are stuck with Mitt Romney as our nominee is because Sarah Palin chose not to run. She’s the only one who could have matched Romney in the money stakes. She’s intelligent. She’s beautiful. She knows how to take on the media and Obama better than anyone else. The vast majority of conservatives would have rallied behind her, rather then splitting their votes between multiple candidates. Had Palin run she would be our nominee right now.
I agree with you. Palin probably still has higher numbers than Romney even now.
All of those “conservatives” who vote for Romney are going to feel queasy for 4 years at least. They might not like Obama being a leftwinger but at least they can’t take the blame for him. How will it feel for you when it YOUR GUY pushing leftwing crap on the country.
Many of them will try to convince themselves that its okay, since he’s a Republican. Many of them will be completely co-opted and openly support their “guy”.
- When you bend over and grab the ankles and vote for a leftwing liar progressive you are no longer part of the “conservative movement” period.
You are a sheep.
- Many of them will LIKE taking it up the rear and will stay RINO’s forever. “We have to vote for them, no matter what!”
The whole point of Free Republic was that we are tired of voting for moderates, so now they want us to vote for real liberals. I am stunned to see how many are actually willing to follow the GOPe off the liberal cliff.
Once you have shown the GOPe you are willing to vote for a liberal, do you really think you can “push them to the right” ever again??
We will not compromise, we will not surrender, we will not rest and we will fight.

LOL, who is this 3rd party candidate that is getting 13% of vote? The Libertarians (unless maybe Paul runs) will get their standard .5% of the vote and other 3rd party's like the Constitution party will get a tiny fraction of the vote as per usual (think .15% or thereabouts). The total 3rd party take will amount to around 1-2% of the vote.
I'd be surprised if Romney gets 32-33%...
I agree that Romney is probably going to lose, but it will likely be a very close election and the victor is only going to win by a narrow margin. The scenario you've put forward here is utterly divorced from political reality and seems based on the idea that masses of Republican voters won't turn out for Mitt. That is a bad assumption. The hatred for Obama and desire to remove him from office will be sufficient to energize the vast majority of Republicans and even most conservatives. People like Palin, Santorum, Newt, Perry, Cain, Bachmann will all be out campaigning for him too in order to get the grass roots out.
Willard is a truly uninspiring and lousy candidate, but the idea some people are putting forward that he can't win is ridiculous. The bad economy alone gives him a decent chance. I'd say the chameleon has a 30-40% chance to be elected President.
And again, trying to float the meme that Rominy is the nominee so we should do our comparisons between little barry bastard and high priset Milt. I’m beginning to get the notion that it would be best for barry dunham/ aka barry soetoro, aka little barry bastard be re-elected and have to deal with a republicn run Senate and House. ... Although, the Republicnas have shown themselves to be cowardly and feckless, so they would probably not restrain the commie-in-chief much at all. It would however end the GOP-e election thuggery.
Ask yourself: Are there REALLY that many voters -- 85% or 90% of the "pie" of registered voters who actually show up to vote...who would vote for one of two mainstream liberal candidates?
In order for it to be a close election, you're looking at well over 85% of the nation -- perhaps 90% -- voting liberal...
Is our nation that far gone?
Yes. 98-99% who show up will vote for either the Democrat or Republican nominee. 1-2% will go 3rd party.

Elections are as much about voting against the other guy as they are an affirmative vote for any given candidate - and this is especially true in re-election campaigns which are usually referendums on the incumbent. The Republicans could nominate a moldy bale of hay and it would get most of the Republican and conservative vote simply as a rejection of Hussein. That's just how elections often work in a 2 party system without the possibility of coalition governments.
OOP’S i meant to add (sarc)!!!
My bad!
I am much aware of what Romneys religions is....what he thinks concerning his religion he’s not about ready to divuldge apart from his usual no-substance remarks about pretty much everything.....
Additionally....He’s already been instructed not to get into conversations about his religion other than using the “script” we’ve heard time and again. And they’ll have a
script” ready for any question one might have from the news pundits. He’s simply not going to discuss it except in generalities..........because were he to do so and reveal the LDS beliefs as they are.......most would see him truly as ‘more than a fruitloop’ for beliving such nonesense.
I despise Romney, but it seems to me that I have no choice but to vote for him against Obama.
It’s not just about the next 4 years. More Obama appointees could lock up the Supreme Court for the next 40 years and destroy America for future generations.
What’s your response to that point?
Then again, I live in California, so my vote is basically irrelevant.
Uh, the abortionist, homosexual agenda pushing, global warming hoax pushing, amnesty pushing, gun grabbing, mandate loving, socialist health care imposing, Mitt Romney appoints leftist liberal judges, too.
