The GOPe started the drum beat “only Romney can win”, and the Obama hysteria folk fell for it, that’s how.

It simply shows that other candidates in the primaries couldn’t persuade enough voters to vote for them.

Nope. We’ll blame you and your fellow Puritanical conservatives.

Of course you will. You'll be wrong, but your Democrat friends will agree with you, and isnt that all that really matters?

I am a Canadian who has visited and enjoyed this site for years. The liberals and socialists have dominated my province(state) and Federal government for years BUT we now have Conservative majorities at both levels.
We did it by leading from right wing strengths. They are as follows:
1- The economy ;even the left believes the right are better managers
2-law and order ; almost everyone believes in the equal application of the law. Illegal immigrants are cheaters and no one likes a cheater. The only reason that people are not totally outraged by Obama allowing illegal immigrants children work is that morally you can they were not cheaters
there parents were.
3-Military and Defence

Forget about abortion gay marriage etc ,no San Francisco Liberal will be persuaded to change their minds on these issues nor any other voters.

Stay on message! The only answer by Romney/Ryan to ANY question
Should be “the economy is a disaster and it is Obama’s fault
fault!”
If the press ask what time it is the answer should be “the economy is a disaster and it is Obama’s fault”!
If they ask about abortion or gay marriage same answer. It is the economy “stupid”.
Romney will win if he leads from the rights strength and stays on message.
When you have power then you can chip away on the social issues but do NOT campaign on them.

RINO only counts for 30-35% of the members. The rest mostly claim to be conservatives. That conservatives don’t have power to influence as much as RINO shows conservatives’ weakness.

Fine. You all stand on your principles. I'll remember that when Obama gets re-elected and my son and the rest of the military get sent out to God knows where without proper equipment and support. Their blood will be on your hands for not supporting the only possible chance of getting the evil out of the white house.

I don’t get it. The republicans have just told 90% of the people on this website to “vote for us” then go pound sand. Yet a large majority will still vote for them.

“I don’t give a crap what 90% of the public feels. I’ll stand on principle, even if I stand alone. Because one day - there’s this Judgment Seat - and there will be an accounting.”

Yes to the above.

“And we’ve just been rendered neuter by Team Romney.”

Yes, conservatives were - we won’t exist in the Republican Party national convention - we won’t be there as the candidate will choose his delegates in every state. This will happen because Romney will get that rule passed by the national committee if he is elected.

Never in my life would I have thought this could happen. Romney did a “Bain”. He took the party and dumped the employees he didn’t want (conservatives) and now he owns it. He just needs that new rule and he’ll get it.

Well, ok...I can see that the powers in the RNC wanted Romney and did what they could.

However, as a person who didn’t support Romney in the primaries, I just think he has a unique knowledge of how to do what needs doing - unleash our job creators. Without our economy being solved we’re down the tubes no matter what.

I’ve spent my entire adult life as a business owner and have respect for those who actually know what they’re talking about when it comes to running a profitable business.

‘Ideological purity’

Translation: Conservative morons who will not compromise their faith and principles with sin and evil for what is politically expedient.

You ABO bunch - you are no different than the Ron Paul Mob Zombies - the only difference is in whom you assert is our political savior.

I worry about a people who put so much faith in the integrity of an election when Cook County has gone national and the chosen nominee is no different in record than the Kenyan Marxist they want to replace.

All ready the GOPe and their toadies are setting up to blame conservatives if Romney loses in November.

Isn't that exactly what the 3rd party cretins are saying? That they want to "teach the GOP-e a lesson". There's no lesson unless Obama wins, and their 3rd party votes are responible for it. Can't have it both ways.

Romney is no different than Obama

Objectively not true. Romney is not a state socialist like Obama. He will at least at times act conservatively, as in picking Ryan. Please learn to make distinctions.
