Your choice is Obamney or Obamney. I prefer cheering on Gingrich and denying Obamney 1144. You seem stuck on defeatism.

First off you are insane if you think Gingrich can get enough votes to deny Romney the 1144.

Secondly the groupthink,groupspeak the of the group here saying some of the stuff you are saying remind me of lemmings all running off the cliff together thinking they are doing something worthwhile.

Thirdly you are in total denial of the reality of the situation and I for one don't intend to follow you over the cliff.

Gingrich: I’ll support Mitt Romney if he becomes the nominee

“I think you have to be realistic, given the size of his organization, given the number of primaries he’s won, he is far and away the most likely Republican nominee,” Gingrich said …

“If he does get to 1,144 delegates, I’ll support him and I’ll do everything I can this fall to help him defeat Obama because the primary goal of the entire Republican party has to be to defeat Barack Obama,” he said.

“This makes this maybe the most important election of our lifetime.”

You're buying the propaganda from the elites and and MSM, bleating like scared sheep. I refuse to have a loser liberal foisted on me. I will NOT abandon my principles. You can do as you like.

The numbers are NOT with Mitt

Mitt Romney must win over 60% of all remaining hard delegates to secure the GOP nomination. Surprised?

19 states still need to be heard from, and of those states 869 hard delegates are available at the state and district level (discounting the 37 total delegates available between Indiana and Arkansas, which have proportionality rules only a democrat could love). State and committee GOP delegates number about 69, which I’m throwing into my calculations as a given for Romney.

Nevertheless, Romney still needs 663 delegates to reach that magic 1144 number.

Can he do it?

Of the 11,280,792 votes cast so far, Romney has accumulated 4,595,908 or only about 41%. Typically, Romney does not garner more than an average of 44% of the vote. Santorum averaged about 25% of the vote. Even if half of Santorum’s supporters vote for Mitt, this still does not give him the necessary 60+ % to secure the GOP nomination.

Pure bovine excrement.

Insanity is doing 2008 all over again expecting a different result. Only this time, the Ruling Class candidate foisted on us is WORSE than MCCain - and stands NO CHANCE against Obama.

I do not understand the mentality that is so willing to IGNORE the fact that Obama and the Media in league with the GOP-e, CHOSE Romney for Obama to run against.

Insanity is thinking your vote for Romney if he is the nominee in November, will stop and end Obama. Romney will lose in an historic landslide, and you groupthink Ruling Class stooges will then go on to blame Conservatives for the loss, same as your bunch blamed McCainiac's losss to Obama on Palin and the Conservatives.

We're done with the wifebeating and adultery from the GOP Ruling Class. We're not voting for your establishment candidate under any circumstances, and our war is convince every Conservative to stand their ground and refuse the RINOs and their Marxist Allies our votes.

Democrats and Obama with the Ruling Class chose Romney to run against Obama. I'm not playing their shell game any more. It's time to go rogue.
