In a word - YES!
Glad you have feelings. Please stop confusing your emotionally hysteric opinions for facts.
He’s winning most of the primary states. Fact.
Sowell is right. It’s time for some of the conservative candidates with no shot to drop out and endorse one of the others. If we go into the primaries with 8 candidates, McRomney is going to win. One of the negatives of having a debate every single week is that none of the candidates feel any pressure to drop out, since they get weekly exposure regardless. What a nightmare it would be if the establishment manages to push their milquetoast candidate through yet again because conservatives couldn’t get it together enough to get behind one of the 5 tolerable candidates. After all that we’ve been through you’d think we could at least keep our foot on the throat of the Rockefeller Republican wing of the party. Does anybody other than Karl Rove really think that we need a Ford, Dole, McCain type candidate in this environment? If Romney wins the nomination a third party movement is inevitable. Can the party bigwigs really not see that?
Cain killed himself yesterday with that interview performance.
Who’s to say at this point who has a “shot” and who doesn’t? I don’t like Santorum, for example, but he would be fool to drop out now for example with such a volatile race.
Personally, I see Perry as the key to the contest. The votes for e other candidate, if/when they drop out, are likely to go to Cain. Perry is the only other "establishment guy", and a significant pcentage of his votes will go to Romney. While Cain is certainly highly unpolished at the moment, I think he has a better chance than Bachmann or Gingrich. For our economy to have its best chance, Bachmann and Gingrinch need to exit, and soon, so that Cain's numbers can continue to grow. If Perry exits first, Mitt's numbers go up, and the MSM plays defense for him until the summer. Just my simplified prognostications on it.
Agree wonder how many buses are leased for the election.
you think I care about one interview?
lol
Your attempts to try and make a literal rocket scientist look dumb will fail miserably.
If you knew of our involvement in the Cain campaign you would know that I am looking at more than just one interview.
I agree, I had hopes for Cain but the more he talks the less I support him. We are going to be forced to vote for “Mitt the Mormon”. That is just how it is going to be.
We need to continue working on getting a conservative Senate and keeping the house. That is more doable.
I am officially endorsing Mitt because resistance is futile at this point.
Romney/Pick one 2012....
I am unhappy with the GOP right now too. But there is no past or present evidence that a third party candidate will be a viable option.
I say support that most prinicipled Conservative of the GOP bunch and PRAY for America.
No way would I support or vote for Romney under any circumstances. I dont even believe he will be the nominee but if for some odd reason he is Ill sit this one out. Ill support Gingrich in the meantime.
I agree with you bluecollarman, that we should focus on having a Conservative majority in the Senate and House. The presidency is only one part of this and we have to look at that which we have some control over.
If we all work on keeping our states red or turning them from blue to red, we’ll be off to a good start.
That’s exactly what I’m afraid of. They’re going to pick our candidate to ensure their victory. There just isn’t enough rope...
The GOP has already blown it, no matter what it does or who it nominates now.
They already have... look at the dregs we are left with to choose from.

RE: They already have... look at the dregs we are left with to choose from.
In your opinion, who should have been in the race instead of these so-called “dregs” left to choose from?
Jim Demint, Sarah Palin, Mike Pence, Michael Reagan, Walter Williams, Thomas Sowell to mention a few. This is the absolute worst slate of candidates we have ever been faced with (in my lifetime)... if the dims had anyone else to run but obama... we would have no chance at all.
