That would create a terrible dilemma for conservatives with no conservative candidate left in the race. I read on another thread from yesterday a Freeper saying "Romney is conservative enough for me" (you could fill the names Guiliani, Huckabee or McCain and the idea is the same). I thought to myself: There is the problem. The conservative movement seems to have gone off the tracks with weak-kneed individuals who will accept mediocrity in the form of candidates who are not only marginally not conservative, but absolutely liberal. It's a very sad state of affairs that takes me back to the pre-Reagan era. But all is not lost. Freedom and liberty require eternal vigilance and conservatives can take back the party. Let the fight begin. |
Romney talks the talk. Depending on who he's talking to and when.
“But all is not lost. Freedom and liberty require eternal vigilance and conservatives can take back the party.”
But, in the meantime, to what extent will the country be reduced to? With today’s changing demographics I fear that conservatism is a dying philosophy. Like entropy, liberalism’s end result is an irriversible path to chaos. Freedom and liberty, in the past, were often obtained by violence, upheaval and revolution, as is the case in our own history. What has not been factored into the equation is the ever creeping danger of Islam that our politicians conveniently ignore.
We haven’t had a conservative nominee since 1984. I’ve grown tired of that situation. I might be leaving the booth in November w/o making a mark for President.
