I won’t vote for rudy or ron paul.
But everyone else is reasonably pro-life and supports our troops and I’m not willing to punish the whole country with hillary or obama just because the GOP didn’t nominate the ‘perfect’ candidate
I live in CA, so my vote will go to whom I think should be president. Although when it comes down to that choice (for you swing states), I say you go Republican...unless it’s Rudy.
If it’s Rudy, then our party is going to be hammered. Anyone else, is ten times better than Hillary.
Here’s how I would Rank things.
Hillary 0
Rudy 1
McCain 2
Huckabee 3
Romney 4
Fred/Hunter 8
Perfection doesn’t exist, imo.
Romans 6:1-2
What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
Do you plan to support sin that grace maybe, perchance, possible may abound sometime in the future?
There is some candidates that will never see my vote....
Romans 3:8 (King James Version)
And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.
Would you support evil that perhaps maybe some good may come of it? Just want is your damnation worth to you?
Paul wrote, "Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil" (Rom. 12:9)
My mother met McCain in person a few years ago, she said he gave her the most hateful look when she mentioned face to face with him that we wanted him to keep God in government if elected. One must know, we don't plan on being hypocrites come election day.
What part of:
"WE'RE GOING TO TAKE THINGS AWAY FROM YOU FOR THE COMMON GOOD"-H. Clinton
do you not understand?
For those of you who think RINO = DEM, please check the report cards on immigration:

I wondered when I would start seeing the use of threats to keep people voting GOP. Of late I don’t see where we would be taking much less of a screwing by voting them in once again. Oh....I will probably go and do it again, but I really don’t have to like it. We need a new Bull Moose Party candidate. Gotta wonder when people are going to be fed up enough to actually give a good third party candidate a real chance?
All we need is a conservative to vote for.
I will vote for a candidate who is not a socialist. Someone who is not for taxation to redistribute wealth; centralized social programs; or the control/regulation of private property for the benefit of the majority. I will vote for the candidate who is for the protection of individual liberty; the devolution of self government to the most local level; the protection of the integrity of private property; the use of education and incentives (not restrictive regulation) to accomplish public goals.
If the democrat or republican candidates don’t qualify, then I will look to vote for someone who does.
Though my tag line says it all about me, I would prefer a straight Conservative, too.
But Fred looks like the longest of long shots, as does Hunter. Victims of the nominating process, I fear, where the buzz is generated in Iowa and New Hampshire, and where the media does it’s coronating.
Newt never entered the race - and to boot, he cracked up a bit before fading from the talk shows.
Bottom line though, say what you like about the RINO that will probably win this nomination, he won’t be doing NEAR the damage a Hillararama could do.
Even a RINO paying the slightest lip service to the Right would give us a fighting chance to fight another day. One of the Dems? Turn out the lights, the party’s over....
I will be there to vote for my President, whomever that may be - but I will not let the lunatics who are left decide for me. No one shall ever say that by my omission, we lost the Republic...
They have been punishing the GOP since Reagan granted amnesty.
Get over it.
My right eye is feeling pretty offensive about now.
Q: What is the difference between the Democrats and the Republicans?
A: The Republicans use Vaseline! 8-D
Choosing not to support the more conservative of the two is a vote for the more liberal of the two.
I firmly believe, as a Recovering_Democrat, that any time with a member of my former party in the White House is too long.
I've been a part of the brainwashed liberal masses--and I never want to see another one of their "leaders" in power again.
If some “corporate nuckleheads” (heh) want unity and strength in our Party, they should put their pride down for a few days and consider talking about specific details with Duncan Hunter. Most of them would probably be pleasantly surprised.
On international trade, we’re all about to go through some great and difficult transitions. There’s no sense in making the changes unnecessarily harder for us all by bullheadedly trying to resist those changes without planning in advance for surviving and capitalizing on them. Trying to run the whole show through an administration won’t work well in the coming years. We need to elect an objective, experienced man who is willing to do the job without interference from special interests (some of which business interests do collide with each other).
