Romney is not castor oil. He’s strychnine.
Does castor oil come in suppository form? Because that’s the way it will feel Romney is being given to us.
Sorry Victor, don’t know what you’ve been smoking, but Romney as the nominee will guarantee 4 more years of the fascist and the death of the American Republic.
My father fought in 3 wars for this? I’m glad he can’t see this.
Anyone seen what the German and Italian bond offerings did this week? The economic situation is way past being able to suffer through another socialist President.
Romney a conservative? That’s just plain insulting to a thinking adult.
Mr. Cain has the backing of the Tea Party.
My opinion is that the Tea Party is going to elect the next president whether he be the Republican nominee or a 3rd party candidate. High time we had a 3rd party!
Somehow I bet in the end, the NRA will endorse this guy. Stunts like that in the past is why I joined the GOA.

Attention GOP:
Guess what?
I won’t be drinking your damn castor oil under any circumstances.
So stuff THAT in your pipe and smoke it, GOP.
You haven't dealt with the ninth or tenth amendments or the Founders' concept of dual federalism via this argument, you've merely employed the invective.
There is a case for the electorate foisting upon the next President a Congress with two bodies WELL to the right of WHOEVER is elected President...I think if we did that, it would "pull along" a President who has a tendency to drift toward the middle...
You're right, we can do better, but it has to start with getting rid of Hussein. I frankly think there are better choices than Romney, just as I thought there were better choice than McAmenesty in 2008.
But even if McInsane were elected in 2008, I can guaran-damn-tee you, we would not have passed a $1 Trillion dollar slush fund for unions or Obamacare.
Politics is the art of the possible, and it is rarely (if EVER) the art of the perfect.
First time in a long time I’ve seen the Democrat come out in one of VDH’s articles. I noticed also that he has the gall to put Sara Palin in the same one liner with Giuliani as all about the money.
It’s rare, but this one reminds me he is a Democrat.
Grew up in Missouri where my Mom gave us a spoonful of Castor Oil every day. She knew what was good for us 4 girls.
Not every 20 percent is 20 percent. Some 20 percent is a majority, as these Republican primary voters will again demonstrate. Plurality is all that matters after three or four primaries. The problems is the uninformed early Republican primary voters who set the stage for the equally denser later primary voters.
LadyLiberty, do you really think our little Republican primary votes are going to nominate anyone good?
It’s nice that you won’t participate in nominating Mittens, but hundreds of thousands in early primary states will, and that seals the deal for us in despair.

I, and the majority of people in the Republican party, vote based on values. Not solely based on an (R) next to a name. Socialism wasn't in our Founder's vision of America. Period. Killing innocent children for a $50 co-pay wasn't in their vision. Everyone has a right to life. Banning guns wasn't in their vision. That should not be infringed upon. How about standing up for THOSE words used by our Founders? You've got to take a deep look into your values if you think the things he did in Mass are okay at any level. To think he'd actually leave everything to the states is a JOKE!!! Those were his values, before being governor and AS governor. He appointed gay activist to the Mass supreme court. He willfully did many liberal things. Because he is a liberal.
His "states rights" excuse is a talking point, plain & simple. Romney will be responsible for appointing judges at a federal level. He'll be responsible for a lot of things at a federal level. We need someone who will stand up for conservatism. Romney bent over to liberals in Mass and he'll bend over to liberals in Congress.
And if he wins the nomination, I promise you he will NOT win the general election. Only a solid conservative would beat Obama in a landslide. America is tired of socialism and Romney's record is covered in it.
It's the same song & dance the media gave us with McCain, Dole, etc. They always push RINOs in the primaries. Not only will Romney not attract swing voters (ask yourself, why would ANYONE vote for a candidate with no solid principles?), but the conservative base will also stay home. There are simply more people who vote based on values than there are "holding my nose to vote" people. He WILL lose if "we" nominate him.
I fear that a lot of Republicans are being scared into the “Romney is the only electable candidate” narrative without taking a good look into Romney’s liberal record before it’s too late. I pray this does not happen, because he is NOT electable.
It's been years since I took that stuff you take before a colonoscopy. I still get seriously nauseous just thinking about it.
You’re not doing a thing to address the 10th amendment or federalism.
I am not so certain what governors of different states might do in certain situations. I remember reading governor Reagan was criticized by some conservatives when he was in California for allowing some unsavory characters to remain on faculties at college campuses, when he had the apparent power to remove them.
I think those states rights ideas are very important principles to stick by, and you’ve merely glossed over them. To each his/her own, I guess.
I will be working to defeat Hussein. His agenda is the worst of any candidate.
Equating Hussein with any of the Republican candidates, if that is indeed what your’e doing, is as wrong as equating night and day.
“He can’t win”
Buchanan said if Romney is the nominee it would risk the creation of a 3rd party, and we have learned what that means.
