Yeah, “core principles”!! You know, the ones you rather hand over to obambam to flush right down the toilet in his 2nd WH Occupation than a moderate Republican?! Puleeeeaase!!!

Btw, what “core principles” has got you so riled up that you would participate in the murder of your own country to spite it? I’m just curios.

"Moderate Republican"? What moderate Republican? There's no such animal running in this race.

If you're referring to Mitt Romney, you might want to check his record before even calling him a Republican, let alone, a moderate.

Mitt Romney’s Dismal Record

"As U.S. real output grew 13 percent between 2002 and 2006, Massachusetts trailed at 9 percent.

* Manufacturing employment fell 7 percent nationwide those years, but sank 14 percent under Romney, placing Massachusetts 48th among the states.

* Between fall 2003 and autumn 2006, U.S. job growth averaged 5.4 percent, nearly three times Massachusetts' anemic 1.9 percent pace.

* While 8 million Americans over age 16 found work between 2002 and 2006, the number of employed Massachusetts residents actually declined by 8,500 during those years.

"Massachusetts was the only state to have failed to post any gain in its pool of employed residents," professors Sum and McLaughlin concluded.

In an April 2003 meeting with the Massachusetts congressional delegation in Washington, Romney failed to endorse President Bush's $726 billion tax-cut proposal."

Romney's "accomplishments".

1. Implemented/created Gay Marriage in MA

2. Supported and forced Gay Adoption in MA

3. Supported Abortion wholeheartedly

4. Raised taxes/fees over 300% while being Governor of MA

5. Implemented a state-level Cap and Trade system.

6. Supported Man-Made Global Warming

7. Supported the Brady Bill

8. Implemented a state level “Assault” Weapons Ban after the Federal AWB was allowed to expire.

9. Supported TARP

10. Supported Amnesty for Illegal Aliens (Citizenship for those already here)

11. Supported McCain-Kennedy (Amnesty)

12. Implemented a socialized medicine in MA called RomneyCare complete with an Individual Mandate and $50 abortions.

13. Nominated 27 Democrats (out of 36 nominations) for judgeships in MA, many of them extreme left-wingers.

Btw, what “core principles” has got you so riled up that you would participate in the murder of your own country to spite it? I’m just curios.

I suggest you start at the original post and read the entire thread if you're still unclear on that question. The murder of my country is exactly what I'm hoping to prevent. As to core principles, mine are reflected in our Founding Documents. Too bad Mitt's (and Obama's) aren't.
