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.
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.
