I’ve seen it all. And yes, I am certain Mitt Romney is not a Barack Obama/James Buchanan clone.
I am also convinced you don’t know how bad those two (Obama/Buchanan) are and were.
I will proudly vote for Newt in my primary and will vote third party in November.
But there are posters on this site who seem to be positively happy about any news that shows Obama beating Romney. That's too much for me. I can't go there.
bingo.
Hey bartender! I'll have what the gal in satin over there is drinking. And make it a double!!
Most Freepers bashed Newt pretty hard until Palin declined to run, Perry and Cain dropped out, and Jim spent a few days zotting Newt bashers. My guess is that FR's write in vote will be split seven or eight ways.....
We've all heard what obomney says and we've all seen what he's done. The two do not jibe. It doesn't matter how many shrum induced hallucinations you may have about romney the reality of the situation is romney is NOT a Conservative. Romney is NOT anything more than an obomba type communist.
Vote for obomney if that's what floats your boat but don't try to pump smoke up our rears and convince us romney is anything more than his liberal record shows him to be.
Or provide some evidence that shows he is not a liberal.
A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump. Dead is dead. Poison in any form is still poison. All you shills are trying to do now is desensitize us into believing that romney is a little less evil than obomba. Evil is evil and romney is evil.
I won't vote for him.
I tried to convince potential McCain voters to do the same.
But I respected their views. I did not insult them or call them "shills" or "bots" or "idiots" or "arrogant" or anything similar.
In 2012, I will vote third party because I can not stomach Romney.

That is an awesome attack, if the standard is empty ad hominems.
I’m not “shilling” for Romney, I am making a distinction between the two likely nominees.
Romney won’t piss on Israel, Obama DID.
Romney won’t bow to a Saudi king, Obama DID.
Romney won’t shut down oil drilling, Obama DID.
Romney won’t print money to pay bills, Obama DID.
No one is saying Romney is the Messiah—that is the danger the liberals have fallen into with Obama.
I won’t walk around with blind hatred for someone who wants to replace, historically speaking, the worst Occupier of the Oval Office in modern history. If that is what makes YOU happy, you’re free to do it...I’d rather look to what CAN BE DONE to replace Obama—and right now, that looks to be voting for the Republican nominee.
Is this akin to calling me a "racist" in order to stop me from expressing, as you put it (paraphrased) my uneducated opinion?Im not shilling for Romney, I am making a distinction between the two likely nominees.
And you know this how? Remember... The mormon church believe they are the true Jews.Romney wont bow to a Saudi king, Obama DID.
Again... How do you know? Nothing in obomba's 'known' past suggested that he'd bow to the saudi king either but whalla... He did just that. Judging by both men's records you cannot possibly know what romney would do. Hell... he may sell us to the saudis you don't know and you can't show us anything in his past that would say otherwise.Romney wont shut down oil drilling, Obama DID.
Again... How do you know? What bill or vote that he's proposed or voted for will support your conclusion? What business dealings has he ever been a part of would suggest that he's oil industry friendly?Romney wont print money to pay bills, Obama DID.
Wow... You're on a roll. H~O~W D~O Y~O~U K~N~O~W? Remember... Romney's the author of obomacare. Romney has helped move legislation through Massachusetts legislature that is every bit as bad as obomba's and now you want to try to claim that he didn't do it? Please. HOW DO YOU KNOW?No one is saying Romney is the Messiahthat is the danger the liberals have fallen into with Obama.
Yeah... And you're not a romney shill ha ha ha.... Listen... obomney is no better than obomba PERIOD. The fact that you are unwilling to accept the fact that romney has NOT wrapped up the nomination is a testament to the fact that you are a romney shill. Romney has the full backing of the mormon cult as well as 100's of millions of dollars to buy your vote and by all indications he's accomplished his task. I'm not so easily bought. I look at a genuine conservative like Newt Gingrich operating on a shoestring budget giving obomney more than he can handle. A man that quite possibly will keep the looser obomney from disgracing the Republican party AGAIN as mcskidmark, dole and others in our past have done. We cannot afford to have romney as our nominee. I know this isn't sinking into that gray matter you call a brain but there really is NO DIFFERENCE between obomba and romney; except of course obomba will mop the floor with romney. Romney cannot win against obomba.
Look... You continue on with your day as you see fit. I cannot continue to repeatedly repeat myself. A wise person once said, if you argue with a fool there comes a time when onlookers cannot tell the difference between the two. I'm not going to call you a fool but I am going to quite arguing with you. If you're a romney supporter you're lost.
Sorry to have offending your sensibilities. I'm not politically correct by any stretch of the imagination. I calls 'em how I sees 'em. I also find it interesting how it's me who should be "respecting" others "views" while you seem to not respect mine.
If I call that hypocrisy will you assume that I am calling you a hypocrite?
BTW... Romney has not yet been officially named the republican nominee. Sounds to me like you're giving up on Newt. Or... were you ever a Newt or Sarah or any conservative's supporter?
Just askin.
One more thing... I haven't called anyone a "bot" or "idiot". I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't try to put words into my mouth. Thanks.
Okay lady. Good night.
Back when most of FR was throwing that picture with Pelosi in my face every single day.
Back when most of FR was hollering "Run Sarah Run".
Back before JimRob came out for Newt and all the don't-zot-me-please-boss toadies became newly-minted Newtistas overnight.
But I never joined the circular firing squad. Never trashed the supporters of anyone who is running against Obama, and I never will. Not even those who support Mitt.
Boo! Hiss! Boo! Hiss! (Stamping feet on ground) Bad on Mitt Romney for pulling ahead of Obama in the daily polling. Shame on the Republicans who voted for Mitt Romney in the primaries. (Making gagging sound and clawing at my chest) Boo! Hiss! Mitt Romney is a RINO who ties his dog to the top of his car! Boo! Hiss!
OK, now that I have that out of the way, this election is shaping up very much like 1980. We have another incompetent Democrat in office, in fact even more incompetent than Carter, if that can be believed. On the Republican side, we again have a nominee that is not a consensus choice.
Remember that Reagan was so loathed by the establishment Republicans that they ran John Anderson as a moderate alternative in a third party bid. Now we have the opposite situation - a candidate that is the choice of the establishment but loathed by the rank and file conservatives.
Also in 1980, the polls kept telling us that Carter was going to prevail over the "cowboy" Reagan. It wasn't until September/October that it started to become apparent that Reagan was on his way to victory (due to the enthusiasm of his crowds) but even then, the polls had it "dead heat" all the way to the end.
The scary thing this year is that almost half our population is dependent upon big government for their "freebies" and thus Obama is going to automatically get about 45% of the vote - even if he declares himself a non-citizen, a marxist and grants Zimmerman a full pardon.
The good news is that we could nominate Ted Nugent and still have an excellent chance with most of that remaining 55%.
In the end, Reagan blew out Carter by 10 points
Nice try there, Sam.
But not enough drama.
More CAPITAL LETTERS.
More exclamation!!!! points!!!!!!
I know you can do better next time :-)
