I don’t support socialists...even if they have an R behind their name. The Vote for “Romney or its a vote for Obama” is empty rhetoric and scare tactics. I could care less if the GOP loses if Romney is the nominee. He is architect of socialized medicine in America. There isn’t a bit of difference between him and Zero.

If we are all stuck in the same boat, quit enabling the crazy bastards that keep pushing liberals for the Republican nominations.

When you vote for an obvious RINO, you just enable the establishment you claim to hate.

Personally, I don't think it matters one whit whether Romney or Obama gets in office. We're screwed either way.

I just choose not to actively participate in the me getting screwed part.

And you can't do a damn thing about it, to change my mind.

You do know that the RNC that monitors this site has to be soiling their panties that it’s just not working this time.

No worry, they’ve put in a good supply of Depends.

As for my vote, its not for sale - you get it the old fashioned way, Smith-barney and Earn it!

Sarah said she would vote for Newt if she was voting in SC.

You can't possibly be serious? What gay, marxist muslims do you expect hussein to nominate to the USSC between 2012 and 2016? Slugging it out in the primaries is fine but you have to support the nominee.

Same here.

It looks like I'll be voting write-in or third-party myself.

Pretty much the same as Romney. So it doesn't matter.

And no, I DON'T have to support the nominee.

That's the problem with the go-along to get along RNC.

I won't play anymore, and you can't make me.

Perhaps people should stop enabling the crazy bastards claiming to be conservatives.

Gingrich talks a great talk about conservatism and less government but as an elite, he doesn't mean his job needs to go. Oh no! Gingrich, the man who spent his entire career feeding at the taxpayers trough is no different from any of the others he promises to free us from.

What has Santorum done? The salary and benefits of a junior in a law firm weren't enough so he had to get into politics so he too could feed at the taxpayers trough.

Yes, I can. Looking at the history over my lifetime, RNC elites that have won have generally picked really, really crappy SC justices.

I don't expect any better from Romney.

The RNC and I have history between us. And unfortunately for them, I don't ignore it, and get worked up and vote for a RINO.

And it torques you that you can't do a damn thing about it.

Fool me a half dozen times, and I'll tell you to sod off.

How do you explain the trees and buildings rushing by outside your window. It's over, has been. This is what it looks like.

Not in your lifetime? Why's that? Draw any other lines in your life? Lines you won't allow to be crossed? Have they already been crossed?

I won’t sell my soul. Romney is no conservative and if he is the nominee then the GOP needs to go the way of the Whigs.

I am a Christian first, Conservative second, and Republican third.

I will NEVER EVER EVER vote for Mitt Romney. I know way too much about him and his ilk to ever trust him.

AM, Please nuke me if I step over the line.

I figure anyone that will vote party regardless of history of either the party or candidate is a vote whore or so stupid to believe that Lucy won't move the ball again.

I figure anyone that votes for ANY candidate of ANY party that approves of:

killing babies,
restricting firearms for lawful citizens,
or robbing from Peter to pay Paul...

Is either an idiot or evil.

NO I DON’T. I am a Christian first, a Conservative second, and a Republican third and the GOP has gone too far if they shove Mitt down our throats.

This is our election to lose and the whiny, sissy cry-baby elitists are doing a good job of giving us the one guy who CANNOT beat Obama - Romney.

if Romney wins, the conservative base will have chosen the guy behind Romneycare over the man behind the Contract with America, America's premier social conservative, and the best job-creating governor in America, all of whom would also be more electable.

The conservative base is addicted to Clear Channel. Just sayin'...
