Supposing worse comes to worst, and Romney the RINO wins the nomination, what’s going to happen to FR?

Will Jimrob have to ban all Presidential Politics discussion? Will FR become a pro-Obama “teach the GOP a lesson” retaliation underground?

Just wondering if that’s what happens, then the cataclysm of flame wars on FR might be what the Maya prophesied for 2012?

If that were to happen, I would enforce one rule... if the mindless R-bots start to hassle, harangue and browbeat posters on how they must support this Socialist scum Willard over Zero ought to earn an instant, permanent ZOT.

More and more it looks as though it is going to come down to a Newt v. Romney battle.

Many on FR think this is a settled issue, but out there in the rest of the world, it certainly is not.

Now that Newt is the frontrunner, the same phenomenon is going to happen as happened to Romney: everyone else, including Romney, is going to get a second look by a lot of voters.

Whether or not this will be reflected on FR, that’s JimRob’s call.

Don’t know, but I know where I will stand. I will write in somebody, if that means an Obama second term, so be it. At this point, I’d vote for Hitler over Romney.

Actually, the WORST would be the re-election of Obama. Period!

And Romney is not the nominee yet....

LOL, you may be right. In the end it will all boil down to how bad people want Obama gone.

I will be pulling on my flame-retardant long underwear, keeping my head down & (no disrespect meant to Jimrob) pulling the lever for the NOT-Obama candidate. One thing I am sure of - we will not recover from another 4 years of Obama & his 'destruct/deconstruct' America agenda and the thought of him appointing up to 3 Supreme Court justices in a 2nd term makes me ill.

A lot of us would be working for a Third Party candidate at FR.

We don't need to accomodate RINO's, just because a RINO wins the Nomination of the Establishment Republicans.

We'll still be a Conservative site, with mostly Conservatives here. Jim has allowed non-Conservative members, too (obviously).
