Pretty much agree.........
So,now you don't just want Obama out, you want Romney to have a landslide mandate?
I think an anti-Obama landslide is more likely than a pro-bama landslide. But I expect a close race.
My hunch is that you're correct.
That's a very good point, because despite the enhanced Mormon turnout, NV is the weakest link in my scenario.
I'm hearing critters here are openly saying Obama has to go. I highly doubt Romney will win MA, but if he comes within 6-10% here, Obama will get thrashed nationally.
“I see Obama getting blown out electorally;”
I wouldn’t go that far. Through a combination of demographic changes and increased mobility among people, conservatives and liberals have been sorting themselves out and the states are more polarized than in 1988. The days of 30 state being competitive are no more, only about ten will be truly be competitive, fifteen at most.
I pray that this country hasn't been damaged as badly as I fear it has been...damaged by the corrosive and yet hypnotic dependence on government largess.If my fears haven't yet been realized you'll probably be proven correct.If they *have* been....
I still maintain Obama will get blown out. The bluest of the “Blue” states (including CA) will vote Obama, but the “Purple” states should/will go GOP*.
People are hurting and they will vote for survival.
*Again, barring some spectacular event(s). And I don't put anything past the Rats.
But just remember, even the “gimme” crowd runs out of other people's money at some point.
“It all depends on the white vote and the turnout, especially in the bible belt. If Romney gets enough of them to show up for him to cancel out the black vote, he will win.”
Kudos for being a realist.
In the end, “the white vote” is going to be the factor that makes the difference in this election.
It was shortly after the South Carolina primary. Mitt was in absolute panic mode. Drudge went full bore in support of Mitt. In the days leading up to Bloody Thursday, more and more Drudge headlines were anti-Newt.
On 1-26 it reach a peak. Drudge had something like 13 negative articles on Newt. He headlined that Newt attacked Reagan in a 90s speech.
It was reference to a youtube video.
Rush deferred to a staff member and Rush stated with conviction that the negative quote of Newt's was NOT taken out of context. Something in the way Rush stated that made me uncomfortable. I went and listened to the entire youtube.
My jaw dropped and I got very angry. At NO point in the Interview did Newt down Reagan. The simple fact is that Drudge's headline was completely out of context. It was a media smear.
I was very angry at Drudge for the evil smear and quite upset with Rush because I could tell he was uncomfortable going along with the LIE that it wasn't out of context.
I was so livid that I stopped listening to Rush since. Shortly after I stopped visiting Drudge's site.
The next few days Rush tried to back track and did a poor job. Conservatives were right to be angry at Rush.
I thought I would miss Rush but actually I am must less stressed. I stopped watching FOX about six months ago and enjoy things better.
There is nothing about Conservatism that Rush can teach me. I don't need him and consider him just a good spokesman for Conservatism.
Rush would NEVER risk anything big in his life to expose and do he best to destroy the GOP-e. He could have early do his best to pick a Conservative and push him/her. At the same time he could have relentlessly pointed out the fraud that is Mitt.
He didn't do it because I suppose the Money is more important to him by far than helping to save our Republic. That is his choice and I understand. I do believe Rush has a very overinflated opinion of himself.
Free Republic is my main source of Conservative information.
I’ll take worrisome over absolute hell any day. Worrisome can be corrected.
Is RUSH considered GOP elite?
I would think not.
What do you guys think?
So what are you going to do if mitt absolutely astounds me and picks Palin for VP.

“Now, one of the theories — ah! One of the FEARS is that there are many millions of conservatives who so distrust Romney that they just won’t vote, is that they are unhappy with the way the nomination process ended up and they’re not happy with Romney. They’re not enthusiastic, and they just might stay home. They just might sit at home and not vote. There are people who fear that that will happen.”
Rush...it isn’t a “fear” it is a fact. I’m one of those “conservatives” that won’t vote for Romney in a general election. I don’t see him as a significant improvement over Obama. Voting for him just guarantees the GOPe will continue to push losers (even IF he wins, he is still a loser) like Romney on us. I will vote for conservative GOP Senators and House members in the fall election...but I won’t do ANYTHING to help put Romney in office.
He may well win, but it won’t be with my help. Or my wife’s either.
If Romney wins it won’t be for the voters any more than it was for the Primary...and he still hasn’t won that but you’d never guess otherwise.
Romney won’t need to worry about the numbers....neither will Obama. The two are hand in hand when it comes to where they will take this country....Romney simply wears a different mask.
I can see Obama going down big...and it won’t be because of Romney’s policies nor who he is....I think many Democrates are going to vote for Romney. ..and they’ll make up for those who are choosing not to vote for Romney.
