GOP Convention: Will it be an Ailes/Rove Production?

[Yosemitest]

The "Establishment Republicans" can go to HELL!
We lose every time they pick our candidate!

[Texas Fossil]

The TX Republican Party is not run by the DC Establishment Republicans.

We shall see how they react to the grass roots from here.

They are not going to like anything I have to offer. I will be at the TX GOP Convention....

[Yosemitest]

I recommend the following poem be read at the convention.

"Mitt, It's Time To Quit!"



Mitt. It’s time you quit!
Your credibility isn’t worth spit.
RINOs, the “Establishment”, and Democrats all agree,
But in the General Election, to Obama they’ll flee.
Against Obama, liberals and moderates know you’ll lose.
But conservatives, Romney they’ll never choose.

Mitt, our loyalty you can’t buy.
Back to Massachusetts, you’d better fly.
Just like Gerald Ford, Bob Dole, and John McCain,
Nominee Willard Mitt Romney will result in the same.
As a Governor, your record isn’t that great.
Out of 50 states, your popularity was number 48.

Your experience, the “Establishment” types tout.
Defending federal bailouts and FDIC loan forgiveness will find you out.
Democrats and RINOs cower from their liberal wives,
Supporting Romney with nothing but lies.
In 1994 Ted Kennedy showed Willard to be a great bane,
With Mitt’s Bain, and Bain Capital, Obama will do the same.

Damon Corp, with Romney paid $119 million in a fine.
Yet Willard says, for his leadership, it’s time.
He claims jobs he can create and taxes he can lower,
47th out of 50 in growth he rates. Can it get any slower?
$740.5 million dollars a year, fees and taxes under Mitt increased.
Will the half-truths and lies from Romney ever cease?

For Liberty and Freedom, we don’t need “Flakes”,
But Romney says Healthcare responsibilities belong to the States.
Conservatives stand for “Self-responsibility, Self-accountability, and Self-reliance.”
But against these things, Willard’s actions scream in defiance.
“Establishment Republicans” thinks Romney can help take back the Senate,
But they know that for President, Mitt can NOT win it.

Like everything the “Establishment Republicans” try to do,
It leads to failure, and we get the bill, as well as the screw.
In their corruption, little change do they seek,
They don’t want our Freedom to peak.
Their craving for power has pushed their bravery,
To ignore our Constitution, and sell us into economical slavery.

So Willard, don’t lecture us on the need for “patience” and “compromise”.
Romney, be selfless. Conservatism is on the rise.
Choosing the lesser of two evils, isn’t what we desire.
You let them rewrite the language. Where’s your fire?
Romney, they accuse us falsely, and you do little.
Where’s your response, or can you only twiddle?

Mitt, you don’t have what it takes to lead.
So with you I plead.
Do you really want to go from Obama-care to Romney-care?
With you, this nation will pull out its hair!
Go somewhere and quietly think … and sit.
“Know your own limitations!” Mitt. It’s time you quit!

There's a whole subset here on this forum of folks who don't like anybody or anything. They are perpetually unhappy. The primary didn't turn out the way they'd hoped and now they'll bitch and whine at every chance and about every political happening right up till election day and beyond. I really feel sorry for them.

I for one will be watching the convention, maybe have a few local freepers over to my pad to nosh, drink, kibbitz, freeptalk and make merry with me.

The gloom-and-doomers posting here can keep their TVs dark and go to bed at 9:30 for all I care. They wouldn't even watch the Chicago Bears play the Twelve Apostles if Romney and Rove were the coaches.

As for me and my freeper friends, we'll kick back, have a ball, maybe some pizza and Arizona Watermelon Tea.....and enjoy life as the GOP personality-parade flashes across the screen......while we smile, laugh, nod, applaud, boo, hiss and tear apart what they're wearing.

Well, you can fill me in, altura..er, maybe not.

[Mountain Mary]

I agree, Psalm.

The Bushes will be dancin’ on Convention Eve..and pattin’ themselves on the back for a JOB WELL DONE.

Rove: guest of honor at the event.

I think the gop wants to lose. They must have done some polling and seen that romney will not get a lot of social conservatives. They had to know this BEFORE the primary started. They don't care about social conservatives, and yet expect us to vote for their chosen candidate. They helped him cheat, lie and steal & we are suppose to vote for him? Had it been a fair primary, people would accept it; but people don't like to see obama style tactics. Many of us see romney and obama as one and the same-lacking character, values and heart.

The convention in 2008 was fantastic as far as its logistics and production...even with McCain being the final act (most watched convention speech in history - higher than Obama’s) and the ticket was riding very high after that convention - even our standing in congressional races was dramatically improved...all of that fizzled out with the outbreak of the financial crisis.

[Republican Wildcat]

Mourdock overwhelmingly defeated Lugar in Indiana - the same exact voters also overwhelmingly voted for Romney. That is not the only place that has happened with similar circumstances. Our voters have chosen Romney...as strange as it seems, it is true...and if they were just following the establishment lead, then Lugar would have also been the overwhelming victor...but he not only lost, he lost in a landslide.

[okie01]

...all of that fizzled out with the outbreak of the financial crisis.

Which is exactly why the Democrat leadership waited until after the conventions to pull the plug on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

You realize they were in a position to control the timing...???

[trebb]

I told Jim he should allow suitable ads on the site. Now I REALLY think he should, because with comments like yours conservatives are going to boycott this place.

LOL! carcraft was just trying to exhibit "hep-ness" by parroting an earlier article. Still plent of conservatives left here, but a number seem to be flipping out and developing a fatal case of tunnel vision with a field of vision that doesn't allow them to see/focus on Obama.

[ops33]

I’d take the dog for the walk. Of all your options, the lab makes the best company.

[Caipirabob]

Oh yeah, the GOP convention. It will be worth watching! > : p

We wanted a true leader, but we got...

[central_va]

No Mitt is not timid when attacking his right flank. He is Milquetoast when going on the attack to the left however.

[altura]

An odd reaction to a very mild and sensible comment.

Personally I think ads would be better than the constant space and time consuming pledge drives, but conservatives have already left the site because of abuse from fanatics such as you seem to be.

Mitt DID do a good job with the Olympics and he did do a good job in business and he did do a good job running a campaign for the nomination.

I think he’ll do a decent job as president and find it hard to understand people who allow their hatred of Mitt Romney to destroy their reason and cause them to ... in effect ... support Obama.

[altura]

Amen, Leni. Sit back and pout or join in and celebrate our great country and the possibilities ahead.

I’ll admit I won’t have quite the feeling I did when George W. Bush was nominated... Texas, black tie and boots, Laura and the twins and all that jazz, but I think it will be great.

"Fanatics"

Yes, some of us still have Bible-derived principles. Very few, I guess. Even the proprietor has muffled his criticism of the abortionist homosexual enabler. Got to keep the donations from the center left flowing in.

[altura]

Congrats!

You insulted God, me and Jim all in one post.

I hope he reads it, but I won’t ping him like the sniveling cowards do.
