It’s not too late. The GOP-e desperately wants you to believe that. Romney desperately wants you to believe that also - which is why he has bought off the “pro-life” groups to endorse him against Obama before he’s even running against Obama. They are trying to demoralize us.
But remember this: they have to try so hard to demoralize us because they know we can still derail Romney’s nomination.
IOW, they know it’s not too late, which is why they are trying to convince us to think it is.
I was for either Santorum or Gingrich; made no difference to me which got it. At one point I suggested that they ask the Lord to decide which should be the P and which the VP on the ticket and then draw straws to hear His answer.
At this point Santorum is keeping his delegates bound to him. Thank God! That will help keep Romney from getting the nomination in the first round of voting. That is the same tactic that Newt is after, and it can be effective. I was so afraid that Santorum was going to betray conservatism. He didn’t! He’s holding on for conservatism and for the people who voted for him because he represented conservatism! Thank you, thank you, Lord! And thank you, Santorum! That took courage and wisdom, and courage and wisdom were provided just when they were needed.
We’re still on course for what needs to be done.
The enemy we face is demoralization - either by those in the GOP-e and media who push for Romney, or by those who have given in to their demoralization efforts.
There’s a song I really love, by Casting Crowns, called “The Voice of Truth”, and it really, really applies right now - because the things we stand for are truth, freedom, and life, which are near and dear to the Lord’s heart:
Oh, what I would do to have
The kind of faith it takes to stand before a giant
With just a sling and a stone,
Surrounded by the sound of a thousand warriors
Shaking in their armor,
wishing they’d have had the strength to stand.
But the giant’s calling out my name and he laughs at me,
Reminding me of all the times I’ve tried before and failed.
The giant keeps on telling me, time and time again,
“Boy, you’ll never win. You’ll never win!”
But the voice of Truth tells me a different story.
The voice of Truth says, “Do not be afraid”.
The voice of Truth says, “This is for My glory.”
Out of all the voices calling out to me,
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of Truth.
Thank you butterdezillion. Beautiful sentiments and lyrics from one of my faves, Casting Crowns.
Rick IS standing up for us Conservatives whom he knows are still with him.
I am so proud to be part of Rick’s Army and to have met the courageous Santorum family.
Hold on, butter. We have God on our side and He won’t let us down.
Romney extracting endorsements from pro life groups is sickening, isn’t it?
Well, he can’t keep up the facade forever. His mask(s) will come off, hopefully sooner than later.
We need to be warriors for truth and continue to stand up for our principles and values and trust that all will be well with our souls.
