To hell with the GOP-e. Barring a miracle, they got their big government, unconstitutional mandate loving, socialist abortionist Obama-lite RINO on the ballot, they can now get him elected.
We are the resistance!!
Shove him down our throats today, we shove him up your donkeys in November!!
I can see November from my house!!
Then there's no harm in me voting for him, is there?
I'm not going to sit on my hands and hand another term to Obama.
Hugs, DJMacWow!
Hope things are better.
Dire times.
I’m with the OP all the way.
Sticking to your Principles and saying NO when everyone is telling to say yes is Smart.
No submission is not preferable to extinction.
So stick to your so called principal and help re-elect Obama, certainly sounds like a genius move to me, NOT
No Rush said its personal between Newt and Romney. NOT Santorum.
If you read my post...that’s basically what I said—there is NO REASONfor Romney to keep on AGAINST Gingrich ( or the suspended Santorum) so by virtue of that—will apathy w/Romney coupled with those WHO WILL VOTE AGAINST HIM equal NOT ENOUGH delegates (some still going to both the true believers in Santorum, Gingrich& Paul) mean NO 1144?
“Further Romney has not been able to...”
Can you imagine him trying to take a stand on anything?
The video showing him pro/con everything he talks about should be enough that any person with the ability to reason knows he’s every bit the disaster BO is. Right from his own mouth. and yet the rationalizations flow like water on this thread.
The man has no center, no sense of right and wrong. His own people call him an etch a sketch. Anyone stupid enough to vote for someone like that DESERVES what they get. The rest of us don’t, but they do. And they will be the loudest screamers IF he manages to win and takes us down the same road as BO. Someone called them Vischy Freepers. That’s the damn truth.
We either save our country or elect a Rino liberal to manage it's decay. THAT'S what Romney will do. He is Obama lite.
If a conservative had been nominated and lost against Obama, Republican liberals would have said “It’s the fault of conservatives for nominating a conservative!”
Now, with Romney being the most liberal Republican nominee ever, when he loses to Obama Republican liberals will say “It’s the fault of conservatives for not supporting Romney!”
You can vote for whomever you like. But don't expect to be cheered for voting out of fear.
I agree. I will do nothing to enable four more years of Obama. We must get the correct House and Senate in office in any case...if we do that and elect Romney, things will turn around because the new Congress will enure that Romney is given the legislation to fulfill his promises.
Whatever else Romney is, he is clearly a politician and this is the chance for the pinnacle of his career. He is not an ideolog and he will not throw away a chance at eight years by betraying those who get him into office and ensure he makes good on his promises. To do do would be political suicide.
So, as much as I had hoped another would win...and there’s still an outside chance for that...I’ll vote for Romney over the clear Marxist Obama
If Romney does go forward and win the nomination now, let’s see who his VP pick is too.
Romney was elected in a DNC dominated state, Mass. It is really more MassCare than RomneyCare IMHO. He had to run center...and I believe the plan would have been even worse without him there. Study his vetoes sometime...it tells you something about him too. Most of them were over ridden by an 85% controlled state house.
I do not like his changes on critical issues any more than anyone else...but there is something there a proper house and senate can use that would be orders of magnitude better than Obams.
This is a decision that every person must make and it is very personal and varied...but I honestly believe I must oppose Obama, even with Romney, for the sake of my eight grandkids and their future.
Why surrender to Romney now? Why not fight for an actual conservative candidate? That’s what I don’t understand.
Let’s say that someone walks into a restaurant and pays $100 for the best things on the menu.
Instead, the chef brings them a plate of rancid garbage.
The person says “Thank you for bringing me garbage instead of what I ordered! I will pay extra for it!”
The person will then never get anything good but instead will get garbage every time.
In this election year, the role of the chef is being played by the Republican Establishment.
The role of the rancid garbage is being played by Mitt Romney.
And conservatives are told that they have to be in the role of the person accepting the rancid garbage instead getting what they deserve.
I agree 100%. If they force Romney down our throats, he won’t win anyway. The GOP elites are as much the enemy as the Dems. At least the last few years have made this crystal clear.
I am so on edge lately...
I am voting to get Zero out of office. I will not let him get a second term and will not skip voting or go third party just because others are upset their candidates dropped out. I wanted Perry, then Newt.
I voted for Perot years ago and still regret it.
I distrust Mittens and regret that many souls will be lost as Mormonism uses him to lure in more gullible people, but there’s no comparison to how much I despise Zero.
I know what you mean. We are circling the bowl and some want to flush it again and elect Romney. Even though he cannot win against Obama. They share too many accomplishments.
Yes, it’s true, and I’m sorry, I didn’t hear Santorum’s speech. I have been very busy today.
Newt Gingrich is true to his word. He is in all the way to the convention. Vote Newt. Of course, the same media give him no chance, as always. So what.
He won his home state and he didn’t quit. His campaign is in debt. There’s always fund raisers to retire debt. Ask Hillary about that.
Be well, dearest caww.
We gave the GOP the House in 2010. They sidelined all the freshmen TEA party people, co-opted a few and did what exactly with their historic landslide mandate.
They did NOTHING but further enable Obama.
You really think that they won’t do the same again? Really? Bohner is in command. He’s a coward’s coward. He has done nothing but capitulate and ‘compromise’. That’s what will happen without someone to force him to do his job. IE a Conservative president. That’s his record as Speaker. His fights with the dems are token at best and ALWAYS lead to him giving away the store.
He has never stood up to his golf buddy.
And the senate? With Lord Lindsey in power? With HIS record of anti-conservative votes and actions? HE’s gonna listen to newb senators?
Sorry Jeff, I do not see it. If you can show me where any of the above is wrong or based on anything but fact and logical conclusions, I’ll gladly admit my error. Yes, we much! put as many of them in as we can. Absolutely. But they are not the ones making committee appts, moving bills ect.
That’s Grahmm/Bohener territory.
Preach it brother, preach it!
I for one have had enough of the goofballs who (right here on FR by the way) keep telling me it is going to be MY fault that Obama is re-elected if I don’t vote for Romney.
FUBO!
FUMR!
FUGOP!
Baloney, Romney just got lessons from Obama on how you ignore and bypass the checks and balances....also ignoring any outcry from congress.
So no....Romney will do what he wants...and that is bringing on Obamacare under his name....giving gays what they shout for, and leaving the decision of abortion to woman.
Defy the Living God if you want but I wouldn't advise it.
