How can you say it was “the establishment” when it was our fellow Republicans who voted Romney to be our candidate? The majority obviously believed he had the best chance of winning.
I sent Newt and Cain money but even I have to admit that Romney is more likely to beat Obama.
The establishment has been pushing Romney for 4 years. I think they purposely encouraged conservatives to split the conservative vote so that Romney would win the nomination. And I think they worked in league with the MSM to take down conservatives as needed to ensure Romney's place.
On the otherhand, maybe Romney just lucked out and there was no GOP-E conspiracy to hand the nomination to Romney. It doesn't matter. I won't vote for Romney.
If the majority of Republicans wanted Romney, and I don't think they did, it just worked out that way. Then the majority of Republicans ought to be happy with whoever wins, because Romney is just like Obama.
The GOPe started the drum beat “only Romney can win”, and the Obama hysteria folk fell for it, that’s how.
Best they move to Maryland where they can be among their own kind.
