Interesting insight about Romney.

I don’t even know what to think about Cain. I like him a lot but he’s just entered the war zone. I wonder if the press will hold off on him like they did on Obama because he’s black. And Cain actually is black, not some weird hybrid.

Somehow I don’t think they will. So I hope nothing emerges that ruins Cain as a candidate.

I’m still hoping Sarah runs and I still like my Texas governor. He may be ruined or he may not. We’ll see.

Also, I hope we will concentrate thoroughly on continuing our 2010 victories in the House and Senate. If we can get both those bodies packed with conservatives it won’t matter quite so much about the true conservatism of the president.

Oh, it will matter. I just mean it will be a fail safe position.

Can’t hardly get on Free Republic these days. Bitterness and invective just seep from the screen into my room and make me feel bad.

Focus on the task at hand. Much of the invective posts are from people inside the campaigns in one form or fashion. Most FReepers and all Repubs should respect all the candidates on the Conservative side.

I am working on this special election and completely ignore the individual candidates and am focused on winning this election.

That is the big question at this point in the game will she or won't she run? I don't know anyone who has the answer. We do know that the official deadline for several states is the end of October. So some time this month we should know.

Don't get upset FR has always had a wide variety of posters.I pick my threads.As you know your wisdom is always needed here.

Bares repeating everyday until the election.

Hang in there....we are great Spritual Warriors...we have to respond in a difficult situation..remember, if they are shooting at you, you must be over the traget! ha.

I often respond on threads not only to someone who vehemently disagrees with me, and even mounts a personal attack ( their “bad”) to bring my points to the Lurkers to give them the other side for them to reflect on.

“Can’t hardly get on Free Republic these days. Bitterness and invective just seep from the screen into my room and make me feel bad.”

I’m sensitive like you, Altura, and am relatively new here (only 3-1/2 years), but we have to develop thicker skin - I agree with RodGuy’s advice.

On another thread I (and another poster) got a reply from
Editor-Surveyor where he said “it’s nice to know that I side with the Lefties” which he somehow decided “from looking at my previous posts”. I have NO idea what he was talking about - but it was a thread on Herman Cain and I am a real HC “cheerleader”. I’ve evidently ticked E-S off a couple of times over who knows what. But “lefty” I’m decidedly NOT!

Still, I know what you mean - it does hurt a little. I’ve always been taught to take responsibility for anything I say or do, but it drives me crazy to be accused of something I’m NOT guilty of, ya know?

Oh well :-)
