I’m with you, O !

I WILL NOT vote for Mitt Trotsky! I REFUSE to be put in a situation where I’m forced to choose between a socialist (Mitt Trotsky) and a Marxist (Chairman Obama)!

It’s not over yet.......

NO COMPROMISE! NO RETREAT! NO SURRENDER! I AM A CONSERVATIVE! CASE CLOSED!

Great video! BTTT!

I noticed that about CNN during the SC primary when by chance I had access to a television.

In the past I couldn’t bear to watch CNN, but for some odd reason they do seem to have some refreshingly straightforward commentary on this primary race.

The Romney Rockerfella Republicans will freak if Ohio goes for Santorum.

Sandy Hume killed himself after being arrested for drunk driving. The rumors of a gay affair with Paxon are damnable lies that have been debunked many times.

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

I’ll keep that in mind, thanks.

[Yaelle]

Maybe the reason CNN is so dispassionate is that they really don’t have a dogin this fight. They are all standing there and admitting what a big win this is, even being this close, for Santorum. It’s like the fox guys will be fined $500 each time they say the word Santorum.

[reasonisfaith]

I don’t mean to intimidate you, but it seems you’re surrendering to my arguments very easily. It’s really not a complicated matter.

(I would advise not to resort to personal attacks if you want to maintain any credibility.)

[Girlene]

The USA USA USA was fine, the WE NEED MITT and then later MITT MITT MITT chants were wierd. I’m listening/watching to Fox’s SuperTuesday Live chat on line, so I’m probably getting something different than on FOX.

Ohio latest - Santorum still ahead, but tightening

So far Mitt's only 3rd in ND. Unless Sarah's friends can add AK to that list it doesn't look he'll finish worse than 2nd anywhere else. Newt finishing 3rd in TN, OK, OH, no 2nds, winning his own state with less than 50% and and 4th (or like Rick, out in VA) doesn't leave Newt looking very strong. Santorum's only 3rds are GA and, probably VT. It's still conceivable he'd catch Paul in VT for 2nd.

As an aside we should give thanks to all the Newt and Rick voters in VA who held their noses to cast protest votes for Wrong Paul! I wish there could have been more!

Mormons only vote for mormons. Blacks only vote for blacks. Catholic only voting for Catholics.

Can’t Americans just pull their small minded heads out of their butts and just vote for the BEST candidate for EVERYONE??

(which would be Newt).

Oh, but no ....we all have to split and fracture into millions of little fiefdoms. It’s so idiotic.

[Signalman]

Hugh Hewitt just said Romney will win Ohio.

[katiedidit1]

Ah no...he specifically mentioned N. Dakota due to their huge find on oil.

[Broker]

Idiots vote for morons too!

[jwalsh07]

Look amigo, you don’t have an argument. Newt gets less votes than Romney and Santorum. This has nothing to do with physics, calculus or whining about negative ads. It’s simply a fact. Two other points. Keep your advice to yourself and buy a sense of humor.

[steve86]

Who would commit suicide for a simple DUI? That seems ridiculous.

[altura]

Please reconsider posting ugly things like you posted about Brit’s son.

I would be so embarrassed if someone re-posted it somewhere like facebook and it would illustrate that Free Republic is as nasty and prejudiced as uninformed people say we are.

Take it to private mail.

MItt Trotsky

ROFL

I had to vote for Mitt Trotsky in 2006 when i lived in MA. he bumped
off the woman Governor Jane Swift (R), who was elected lieutenant governor
and became governor after Paul Cellucci (R) became ambassador to Canada.
This was after Gov. William Weld (R) left and Cellucci who was elected Lt. Governor
filled in.

See there is a long list of Republican governors in MA starting in 1990.

he was running against Democrat Shannon O’Brien. And barely won.

He bumped Gov. Swift out so he could run for Governor so he could
run for President.

He is a brazen opportunist!

Mitt -— he just keeps trying out for President.

[weston]

Newt can still do this, listening to his strategist now..

Just emailed FOX and asked what the heck is up with leaving GEORGIA off their ticker tape. No accident IMHO.

Newt has to fight a bigger battle than the others. All elites are afraid of him.
