Newbie to Free Republic
Me
Posted on 03/19/2012 1:17:13 PM PDT by TPD_Jim.Smith
I am new to Free Republic. I look forward to being a small part of this community.
I see by many of the postings that most of the posters on this website are ANTI-Romney. That is good because I am too. I am a conservative from Tallahassee, Florida.
I am torn between Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum. Reading some of the postings I see there are passionate folks on the Newt side as well as on the Rick side.
I am leaning toward Rick Santorum because I think he can best beat Romney in the Primary and frankly I think ANYONE can beat Obama in the general. So my gut tells me to support the most conservative in the race.
I am also a Christian Homeschooling dad so you might see why I favor Rick Santorum but I can support Newt in the general election should he win the nomination. I don't think I can stomach voting for Romney though.
Any advise for a newbie?
Jim

Hat Romney. I hear that he's part French. A beret perhaps (ala his MA soulmate)?

Advice for newbies?
- Read more than you post
- Do not ever, under any circumstances, post a "Hi, I'm new here" thread

Any advise for a newbie?Set down, buckle up, it could be a bumpy flight. If you have to go to the bathroom raise your hand, and remember the coffee and water's for the crew.
....Wait, that's for a different thread. Welcome aboard and have a nice flight.

Welcome to FreeRepublic......If you would like to remain a member, my advice to you is to keep your political opinions to yourself until after the bloodletting and the GOP candidate is elected.
I would also warn you against posting articles from Blogs lest you be considered a "Blog pimp" and accused of being the author of that blob by one anal retentive blog nazi.
In other words, while this site was once a friendly gathering spot of like minded individuals, it has become a fight club and a source of amusement for those "others" over at DU and other leftwing forums who continually post comments from individuals here and joke about their hypocrisy............

I do not plan on being a participant, maybe occasionally. It used to be a lot of fun and humor regardless if we agreed or not. It is mean-spirited including the owner of the web site. Very disappointing. All, including Jim, I will vote for Romney.
Wow. IBTZ?
