I don’t like Romney either and I am hoping against all hope that he will not make it as the nominee as he is the “it’s my turn candidate.” But it is just amazing all the “conservatives” here on FR that are willing to insure the failure of this country if Romney ends up being the GOP candidate. That’s just unbelievable, but these people have done this in the past and the results have been disasterous for our country

I found it simply amazing that so many so-called FR "conservatives" are willing to let the GOP go downt he drain once and for all and become as extinct as the Whigs.

What? Do you think the conservative base of the party is just going to submit to a liberal RINO and the RINO takeover of the party and just roll over and play dead and submit themselves to this takeover?

Don't you realize a RINO takeover is the death knell of the party?

Don't you realize that GOP registered voters is only a bit over 1/3rd of all voters as it is? (About 36%)

If you knock that down to a quarter or possibly 20% of all voters -- with more than 10% of them being RINOs -- you really think there's anything left of the GOP to ever challenge the Democrats again?

How short-sighted can you get?

Short sided? No, I don’t think so. Romney is the second to the last person that I would want to see President. The worst is the guy who’s in there now. The idea of not voting is the head in the sand approach to politics. The second most stupid idea is to vote for someone like Ron Paul as a third-party candidate. Both of these ideas will guarantee another 4 years for FUBO. Conservatives have made a great start with the House, but they have to take control away from the Troika of Idiots ( Boner, Can’ter, and McSleazy). The problem is that they didn’t, and now the House is going to be lambasted by the press for being “do nothing” ( which is far from the truth). The conservatives needed to not be back benchers and stand for something, but some of them have already capitulated ( in the name of “unity” or some such crap). I guess that this is what you mean by “willing to let the GOP go down he drain,” because the conservative voter certainly tried to do his job to elect them in 2010. You have to give the RATs credit. Politics to them is blood sport. They will do anything, and I do mean anything, to have their way. Sadly, conservatives don’t want to get down and dirty and that’s what they will have to do to succeed. I am tired of continuing to take “half a loaf” but “no bread at all” is not a viable alternative for me.
