>>Romney is only marginally better than the alternatives. In 4 years, we better be able to find a unquestionably conservative candidates.<<

But damn, he can speak. This is a great speech. I would be happier if he didn’t keep making it sound like he doesn’t know China is in Asia. And if he didn’t pander so much on pornography. That is not why Hispanics have a high out of wedlock birth rate.

Now we’ll see McLame kick his butt-boy Huckster to the curb.

Well said.

If it wasn’t for people pushing this transparent RINO liar on the GOP, we’d have ended up with a shot at a conservative candidate.

As it was, enough people bought into Romney’s miraculous conversion to conservatism that he ruined it for any of the actual conservative candidates.

I wouldn’t support Romney or McCain, but, candidly, at least McCain doesn’t pretend to be anything other than a RINO.

Romney is a liberal, and should have had the decency of not thinking people are fools.

Oh so bitter.

Now the Romnabortionists can cry in their beer with the Romnagays and the Romnagovthealthcares and the Romnamnesties.

The Romnantiguns will guard the doors.

Doug from Upland and Peter Paul were on WRKO ,in Boston ,for 2 hours this morning. They discussed the massive voter fraud that the witch plans to perpetrate in the general election. It’s truly fightening. She and her cabal are more dangerous than anyone realizes. Doug said she has always thought that it was her destiny to be the most powerful woman in the world and she’s not going to let some voting machine get in her way. The show was fascinating.

Reagan didn’t try to purge the party of liberals. He welcomed them as part of our coalition, while pursing policies that were as conservative as possible given the constraints of the real world.

McCain, on the other hand, will try to purge conservatives from the party. He’ll do it by marginalizing them and by giving amnesty to twenty million new left-wing voters. He’ll engage in triangulation, in which a few overt kooks like Michael Moore represent “the far left”, while the GOP base becomes “the far right”. The moderate, supposedly sensible “mainstream” will be McCain, Specter, Kennedy, Schumer, Feingold, Feinstein, Snowe, etc.

No doubt. Fred made the same mistake as McCain in 2000. Except he ticked off what should have been his natural supporters, paving the way for Huckaboob.

I honor his brave and selfless service, greatly.

I wouldn't accept that unquestioningly. I don't know the specifics of his shootdown/capture, but from what I've read, he was a piss-poor pilot having lost 5 aircraft with one of them due to his falling asleep at the stick after going on a bender the night before. To me, that brings in the question of nepotism due to his father's position (CINCPAC).

Agreed. Huckleberry is a total disgrace. McCain called me a Suicide-voter...callled us terrorists in effect.

Screw them both.

The GOP needs to get a message loud and clear. We will NOT hold our noses even if it is Satan he’s running against.

The elites are out of touch.....again. They literally think they can ram John “Chair Mao” McCain down the party’s throat.

They need top find out they cannot, even if it means putting The Beast into the WH.

You said it, I didn't.

Don't be obtuse. In the very next sentence, I called him "the Soros man". You know damn well how I feel about John McCain and George Soros.

You wasted your ammo on the wrong guy. You saw Romney as a greater threat than McCain. You were disastrously mistaken.

Don't forget that a significant number of US citizens voted for someone other than a honorably discharged wounded in battle war veteran in 1992 and 1996. Most voters don't give a rat's ass if the person running for the Presidency is an honorably discharged veteran. What is most important to them is that he/she is pretty or sounds good and promises bread and circuses to the lazy non working public.

Nice list of facts.

People do not care they are in a paralyzing of fear of a ‘white woman’ or a black man. Liberals have done their home work and we are left with McCain.
