That is absurd. What we are seeing is the salted soil left over from the backstabbing of too many Tea Party candidates by the GOP-E in 2010, and the scorched-earth campaigning by Romney against his opponents this time around.
And it's not even like we got an electable RINO out of this mess. Romney takes Obamacare off the table. Excessive Wall Street influence. Bailouts. He takes too many of the critical campaign issues out of play, while offering little or nothing in the way of his own positives as a campaigner. Most people simply cannot connect to the guy on any level the way many folks did with Bush.
Romney's only advantage in the GOP primary was money. He buried any challenger under an avalanche of misleading and downright deceptive advertising, and they had no way to counter. Obama will not have that limitation. He will take dirty union and liberal money, take Romney's own words and deeds, and drive Romney straight into the ground with them.
Once again, conservatives are being yelled at to fall in line behind the RINO in the name of party unity - after the GOP-E refused to do such in 2010. It wasn't conservatives who sent the message of Party Unity My Ass first - it was those now demanding such, who broke party unity last time around. Conservatives have now seen that party unity only applies when the RINO wins. It's going to take a lot more than the usual yelling and insults and fear-mongering to repair what has been undone. What we are seeing on FR is a symptom. The disease came from elsewhere.
No. Most of us don’t like Romney but know he is the only hope to rid us of Obama, that being a bannable offense has nothing to do with the world at large. And that pretty much is the root of the problem - from within
Well said.
