I don’t know about you but I think I am going to look for the Brittany Spears Live Thread.

Didn’t you hear... Romney is dropping out!

McCain and Huckabee are no better than Romney.

He’s still separating jihadists from the ideology a little too much for me.

Fred Thompson was the best conservative candidate the GOP had running.

Thompson may have been the best Conservative, but he was an awful candidate.

Nope...the biggest fairytale is the one McCain is telling. You know...the one where he says he is a conservative.

Now that is a fairytale.

I’d suggest a drinking game for every time McCain says “I,” “my service,” “Vietnam” or “POW,” but it’s too early in the day for that.

Lucky for me, I am stationed in Italy and will listen to McCain at 2100 (9 pm). I am listening to Mitt now on TV and it is 1900 (7 pm)...yeah!!! I am missing American Idol for him. lol.

How about we drink ipicac every time he calls us “my friends”.

The question is, will he be able to do it without a contemptuous sneer?

“I am having tears here because of the beauty of what he is saying and the delighted reaction of the crowd there, the conservatives who care about America.”

Same here. Some men lay down their lives for liberty; other men lay down their fortunes. Mitt Rocks.

He may be on our side now.

He needs to prove it. Flipping on all those issues in order to run for President proves nothing.

Only time and his actions will prove anything.

In a few years, I suspect that the MA health-care he enacted will be a disaster.

This is a LIVE THREAD for following the CPAC convention.
Your comments are not in the spirit of conservatism, but just your usual hatred and smearing.
I ask you now, each one of you, to find something else to do so we can for once have a clean and decent discussion on this forum.

People with your way of thinking make my skin crawl.

I too have said things in my past that goes against REAGAN values but I have seen the light the past 35 years!!!

Mitt was our best choice and small minded people have taken him away.

Yeah that painful approach to a Womans Right to Choose always makes you a good Conservative...

HUH?

Romney was a Conservative bobblehead...

It may have been unintentional, but Fred did more to cause the present situation than any other candidate.

Post #314 applies to you too.
If you can’t be decent, go away.
