When Mitt Romney DOES become the 2012 nominee of the Stupid Party, it will be most instructive just what Free Republic does. Does it eat it’s words and reverse itself, rationalizing and supporting him and the RINOs against Obama or will Free Republic become a site supportive of an Alternative Conservative Party and candidate for president based on restoration of Constitutional principles?? Really wondering these days.

I'm wondering, too.

If Romney somehow ends up as the GOP nominee, will FR make way to back Romney against Obama, despite Romney's flagrantly anti-life, anti-RKBA, pro-homosexual, pro-bailout, pro-taxes, pro-Obamacare, pro-Big Government record?

(Then again, FR supported the treasonous RINO McCain in the 2008 general election - you remember how that turned out, AiT.)

Free Republic is not going to support Romney from what I've read. Jim Robinson posted this last month:

It may be the end of FR should he get the nomination, but no way in hell will I ever support or vote for the abortionist, homosexualist, global warmingist, gun-grabbing, socialist healthcare pushing, big government mandate loving, flop-flopping, lying liberal progressive Keynesian, Mitt Romney.

If Willard gets the nomination, a lot of us will not support him and will go third party, write-in, or leave it blank for President.

But I don't think Mitt Romney will get the nomination. Bachmann, Perry, and Cain could not really dent Romney's polls, but Gingrich is doing it. Just as people thought the Republican Revolution was impossible, a lot of people, myself included, thought it was impossible to make a dent in Romney's 20-25%, but Gingrich is doing it.
