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
Only advice I can give, is don’t post many “vanity” threads and you should be ok. ;)
And welcome to Free Republic.
Anyone notice that the newbie hasn’t responded to anyone’s comments? I think Scythian may be correct.
Not so much "apoplectic" as unleashing righteous indignation.
Blog all you want, just don't divert traffic there.
Or I might be waiting in the laundry room for you. With ill intent.
Please be right up front with us as to whether a moose ever bit your sister, or if you know of any scandals in Thailand. You must learn about stuned and beebers.... or at least, do not correct someone for that. Also, series = serious. Do not correct someone for that. There will be references to an amazing and wonderful man named Jim Thompson. Assume he is wonderful and amazing, and leave it at that.
Most importantly, please give in the FReepathons, or become a monthly donor.

Do not spam the threads, and if you do not know what that means, you will by the time you see the same junk posted over and over and over. And Post all stories in breaking, mods love that.
Go Gators!
IB4TZ, or move to chat....
Could be he had no idea what this post would generate. I’ve seen posts on other boards that take hours or days generate any interest.
Welcome to the best news discussion forum on the internet.
If you are genuinely conservative then you will do fine here; there is really no special inside info you need.
Having a thick skin does help sometimes when threads engender strong opinions.
But if you love America and want to help defend her from all enemies foreign or domestic then you came to the right place.
All that said, do you like cheese?
One post on another thread.
Have you had a chance to check out the pool on the roof?
Welcome to FR!
I’m here just a tad over 3 weeks, and the great Conservatives here are a wonderful breath of fresh air. Enjoy yourself! And welcome, again!
Just kidding. Welcome aboard.
It is considered bad form to post a vanity as a boot. Feel free to jump in on threads, though.
There's this one weird poster here named "Admin Mod" that needs to be taken to the woodshed if you can do it.
Correction: A single reference to a hot woman triggers the photo requirement.
p.s. you might want to reply to a post (or two) on your vanity thread ...
psst....
When JR changes his tag to “John has a long mustache”, it’s on.
Welcome to Free Republic. This is for posting a vanity in the News Forum. Next time I won't be as merciful.................
JIIIMMMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
Welcome to Free Republic!
Advice? Well, advice is worth what it costs you, and since my advice is free, well I’ll leave the math to you.
Follow Jim Robinson’s rules, donate as you can and ENJOY FR!
BTW, do develop a thick skin quickly, as some of us are still working on our manners - - - .
