Yes. The idea of Fred was a lot more appealing than the reality. The whole reason behind the idea of Fred was that he was supposed to be this incredibly charming spokesman for conservatism and without that, he’s just another conservative ideologue in wide field.”

The acting thing never really kicked in for him, did it? I don’t know why, but he never used his greatest strength on the campaign trail. And it showed. Boy, howdy, did it show.

But...we need to move on.

As I have said (and others also), we need to get behind Romney.

But McCain is going to be very hard to stop now. If he wins in FL, he will wrap it up on 2/5.

Then...choking back tears...we have to get behind McCain, just as Reagan got behind Ford in 1976.

Ford wasn't insane.

Guess you don't want an unobstructed view of the cliff.

Must have been the writers strike.

Sorry..while I could vote for Romney (and did in the primary), I could N-E-V-E-R vote for RINO McCain.

EVER.

The guy is a Dem with a stick-on (R) label on his coat. And it’s 99% peeled off and hanging by a thread..

Why he hasn’t just become a Dem is beyond me.
