How does one justify a vote for Romney?

With the foisted increased possibility of Mittens buying becoming the Nominee, can you actually justify voting for him in the general election?

This is what I am truly curious to find out.

Virgil Goode info" http://www.goodeforpresident2012.com/

Gary Johnson info: http://www.garyjohnson2012.com/about

Personally, at this moment, I simply cannot vote for Romney under any circumstance. I am also convinced that if Romney runs against Obama, Romney will lose massively.

I'd really be interested in your feedback, especially in terms of how you potentially plan to justify voting for Romney if he indeed becomes the Nominee.

Thank you,

NRT

Aw, Jeez, Elsie! LOL! Don’t make me tell all your racy goat tales! ;^)

But, yeah, i guess every young boy has that 2001 apeman moment when he thinks he’s discovered E=Mc2 because his gun went off while he was cleaning it...then after that they seem to spend all their time experimenting in the lab. ;^)

You left out the freshly minted purple states that a Romney nomination brings into play:

Montana, South Dakota, Missouri, South Carolina, Georgia, Kentucky, and Tennessee.

Heck of a job, Establishment...Thanks for the work!

No problem voting for Romney.

Romney knows that private sector enterprise, supported by government protection of private property and enforcement of contract and tort law, is the fundamental source of wealth in this country. Obama thinks business is a necessary evil — useful as a source of taxes and of employment for those too lacking in vision to go to work for the government or non-profit sector.

Romney was part of the creation of modern corporate finance — defined by the ability to make hard choices around costs, debt, and potential to earn returns. This country is facing an unmanageable unfunded debt in Medicare and Social Security liabilities. He’s a guy for those hard choices.

Romney is indifferent to social policy, but Obama is zealous. The one to three Supreme Court justices Obama could appoint in a second term will be warriors to deconstruct criminal justice and family law, impose racial, gender, and sexual orientation quotas in every place and context, and (even if it wouldn’t be Obama’s purpose) sustain and impose strongly anti-capitalist measures that no Congress or President can overturn. I can’t be sure that Romney’s appointees will be good, but I know that Obama’s will be particularly bad.

So..........this guy Romney is the best the GOP can foist forward?
I thought we were a predominantly Christian Nation?

MORMONS ARE NOT CHRISTIAN.

Never forget that Joseph Smith taught that Christian Creeds are an "abomination".
Best to check with ANYWHERE on the Net to EASILY VERIFY that quote, or check with folks who broke free from their Cult.
Check out: www.exmormon.org

If it is Romney who will face Obama........so SAD that we have to choose between these two.

I feel so very sad and disheartened........but there is no way I could ever vote for Obama (obviously).

Obama MUST be defeated. I just don't think romney can do it.

Slow to respond from southern Utah as I go to bed early and get up at 5:00 every day.

The scenario you describe is all too familiar. My oh so perfect father used the barn hose on me to gain obedience. Therefore I was a hundred percenter. Luckily our 80 acre dairy farm gave us places to run and hide.

I did the mission to please my mother but lied in every interview. When Hinckley asked me that five finger question in Copenhagen in 1962, I was laughing inside at the sanctimonious bastard.

Be realistic.
Either Obama wins, or Romney wins.
That’s just how this system is set up and working out.
We may not like either, but that’s the choice.
Sure you can vote for someone else, but that candidate won’t win (face it) and that vote will fail to neutralize another’s vote for the O or the R. Send a message, sure, but a message that will be placed in the circular file.

Your choice is for the communist or the socialist. At least one of them has a basic, if very flawed, loyalty to our Constitution; the other is out to destroy it. Yes, it’s a choice for the lesser of two evils, and either way you’ll get evil ... but one is so much worse he must be stopped.

One of those two will win, you will have a brief opportunity to vote, and the most effective vote - however unpalatable it may be - is for Romney.

I can not deal with either guy. I detest both of them. So what is one to do in my case? When I despise both Romney and Obama the same and the same amount and fear for the country when either joker wins. And since one of them more than likely will win, what does one do?

Well your matinee idol Willie Mitty has voted Democrat unreasonable idol worship of Willie..

He is NOT my "matinee idol"! I do NOT have an "unreasonable idol worship" of this man. He is a politician, period. I understand that. My total focus, is getting BO out of office!

This conversation is now over as there is simply no way we can even agree to disagree on this and the fact that you are now name calling tells me that.

Pam Bondi really defends RomneyCare. She will also help Romney institute it when/if he becomes president.

If you listen to the interview below, you’ll first hear Rush talking about the similarities between RomneyCare and ObamaCare. Greta then asks Pam Bondi, who is currently fighting ObamaCare in court, what she thinks about what Rush had just said. But for some reason, instead of commenting on what Rush said about RomneyCare, she does a switcheroo and compares what Rush said to Romney’s current plan on health care that he would implement as president. You’ll notice she uses the word “would” a lot in her answer. She’s obviously looking in the future and not in the past, which is weird, because she was asked specifically about RomneyCare.

You can speculate as to why she did that – perhaps she didn’t want to sit there and defend RomneyCare. But the way she answered the question has led people to believe she was talking about RomneyCare, and, because she said she’s been offered a job in the Romney administration helping implement his health care plan, people now believe she’s going to help Romney implement RomneyCare.
