“Another pro Obama Freeper. rat...It’s the new conservatism!”

So, where do you stand? Are you pro-Romney? I know you are pro socialized medicine, because both candidates not only support it, they AUTHORED it.

How about the SCOTUS? Both guys are going to nominate liberals, because both of their records are prima facia on that fact. You a pro-Sotomayor for Chief Justice guy?

Both candidates will give it to you.

I’m with Alexander Hamilton on this - If we can’t nominate a conservative, then let the liberal win, and let him wear the fruits of his labors.

It’s funny, because it’s not like Hamilton had over 200 years of American electoral experience to utter what he did about the matter. He’d seen the same thing in England.

As such, its what some would call ‘learning from history’. This is one of the original reasons why public education made such a good idea at the time - if people learned history, they may not be inclined to repeat some of the more regrettable aspects of it.

So, here’s the lesson - if you settle for a liberal to represent the conservative party, you guarantee multiple decades of liberal governance at almost every level. This isn’t conjecture - it’s a fact. The liberals will blame ALL conservatives because they nominated a liberal, and are now unhappy with the results of their ‘conservative’ representative.

The liberals have a point. If you want to screw it up, at least be honest about it. Liberals will come out and tell you the Constitution has outlived its usefulness. Massachusetts conservatives will simply flout the Constitution, and trot it out at the midterms.

The only way this sick bunch if party hacks are going to learn is if they lose this election. They, like you, tend to repeat their history. They nominated McCain, pretty much an avowed liberal, and got hammered. They decided it was because people wanted to make history electing a black President, and not because McCain was a double-talking representative of the media elite. There’s not a camera McCain didn’t love.

So, they go out and do it again - hand us a liberal. Now, you can attempt to blame me for another four years of Obama, which already just happened anyway, or you can blame Coulter, Rove, Noonan, Drudge, and the rest of the hacks that did this to you.

The rest of us will just stick to learning from history. They are going to lose despite everything working in the favor of Republicans, and in the end, they will end up blaming us, not them. It’s what liberals do, after all. Especially after living in Capitol City (DC) for too long.

I guess Hunger Games had to come out since nobody seems to understand George Orwell anymore.

2 + 2 is 4, not 5. You lost the election this year no matter who wins. Put some ice on it. Walk it off. Drink a little.

I disagree with this. Not that this is not true precedent. That, indeed, is a fact. Precedent can be learned from history.

But it is time to CREATE a precedent and create a new powerful party, in 2013!!!

We can stop the cycle you describe. We can choose the lesser of the evils today, and WORK, WITH MONEY AND GRASSROOTS, to create an actual TEA PARTY.

And we must.

BUT BECAUSE THINGS AREN’T PERFECT
And
BECAUSE IT HAS HAPPENED A CERTAIN WAY IN HISTORY
Doesn’t mean we are locked into this.

It should now be crystal clear that the Republican party is no friend to Conservatives and they will always take us for granted.

Let them win this battle. they have to, because obama’s communism must be stopped. If you aren’t helping Romney at this point, you are an Obama supporter.

BUT WE WILL WIN THE WAR. No hurry. We need time anyway to educate people. 2013 we begin creating a strong conservative party. It’s time.

BINGO! I wish all our FRiends could understand Hamilton's "wisdom"!

"At least Jefferson was honest," said Hamiliton. Looks like you believe Obama is honest. One of two men will be president next year. I prefer Romney you prefer Obama. Why do you have a problem with me pointing out pro Obama Freepers?

You lost the election this year no matter who wins.

I'm a Republican. If Romney wins I'm good. Conservatives tried to stop Romney and proved they don't have to power to nominate a candidate. Just like they failed to stop McCain's nomination in 2008. If Romney wins the election he will owe nothing to conservatives. So you lost the election this year no matter who wins. Put some ice on it. Walk it off. Drink a little.
