Same here. I was a strong Perry supporter and fought for him every step of the way, especially here. If I have to settle for Romney, so be it. At least he's an American and according to his speech last night, he will be reversing all of obama's socialist policies and moving us back to a free market system and will be a strong supporter of business. I'm willing to move on from the past if he is. According to last nights exit polls the number one issue is beating obama followed by the economy. I will not dismiss the primary voters who have been having their say.
Which is the dumbest "number one issue" imaginable. If that's the most important issue, then why not nominate Hillary Clinton? It just shows the voters are sheeple led by the RINO media, who has been pushing the "Romney is electable" meme for at least 6 months now. They have nothing good to say about him based on his past and present record, so can only point to a mythical future proposition to try to sell him. And every voter who bought it is a brain dead idiot. The only issue that matters is electing someone who will promote conservative policies.
My feeling is most of the better candidates never got in the race because they were afraid they'd be perceived as racist if they had to be publically critical of Obama. I'm sure that whittled down the field some. They're also not as dumb as Romney, who knows nothing about politics, and assumes he can win the race by being a "nice guy." He'll try but he can't and won't do it. Romney's imminent nomination has all but guaranteed us four more years of Obama, unless of course a massive market crash, Katrina-like debacle, or Lewinsky-like scandal happens in October.
