You thought Romney was a good candidate? Or McCain before him?
Don't tell me John (Hair) Edwards was?
Don't tell me Howard Dean with his famous scream was?
Don't tell me General Weasely Clark was?
Don't tell me Dennis Kucinich was?
Don't tell me Al (Tawana Brawley (sp) Sharpton was?
Don't tell me Dick Gephardt was and finally don't tell me Corol Mosely Braun was? Rush did not call them the nine Dwarfs for nothing.
There certainly were good candidatates on our site in 2008. Fred Thompson of TN was my choice in the primary but he dropped out shortly after, and I think his heart was not in it, otherwise he would have stayed in it. There were several other good candidates (no not Ron Paul) but John McCain won the nomination and I have always voted for the Republican nominee in the General Election and always will, whether you like it or not.
My first choice in the primary election of 2012 was Herman Cain. Unfortunately he had to drop out before the primaries started because of the smears against him by the rats and the left wing media. Unforunatley many in here bought the smears hook line and sinker. I don't know if you were one of them.
Newt Gingrich was the prevalent choice here in Freerepublic, and although I had nothing against him I thought he would be best as the president's advisor or chief of staff.
I finally decided then to vote for Rick Santorum in the Tennessee primary because of his Pro-Life position.
And as I said I have always voted for our nominee and always will do so. Mitt Romney was our nominee and he certainly would have made a better president than that arrogant pos occupant that resides at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave
