I’m not going to give you grief over a vote for Mitt, but he’s not getting my vote only to see me trash him non-stop for four years. I don’t share his values. I’m sorry the party couldn’t do better, but consider me out.

That, sir, is the hat trick. I'll be writing in Sarah Palin. Understanding your position, I support your plan. Sarah is not my cup of tea, but she is yours and you should cast you vote in the manner you wish.

Just a note here to the asshats who are bound to accuse me of "any vote not for Romney is a vote for Obama." I live in Utah. Romney saved brother (former governor) Leavitt from the Olympics scandal indictments, so they're favorite sons of a feather. It's a MoTown thing. If, God forbid, Romney is the nominee, he'll handily take Utah. IMO, a no vote for Romney is as much a vote for him, as a vote for Obama. Either claim is preposterous. I had a family member say that my non-vote for McCain in 2008 was a vote for Obama. I responded that they should be happy then, because a no vote for Obama should be seen as a vote for McCain. They didn't find that humorous. Glares to the "X". Har...

BTW, I'm a $2/day FReeper, not a Republican, have never donated to the Republican Party, and will vote my conscience. The Tea Party is alive and kicking, thank you. There are a lot of (R)'s in the house, but the leadership is (R)ino-e. Over the last 43 years, I have spent all but one of them as a Registered Republican. I don't think I've ever cast a vote for a Democrat at any level. While my natural leanings are toward the Republican party since I registered as one at 18 years of age by reasoned choice (alternative was to back the party of Jane Fonda and anti-war, and anti-U.S. designs), when I became aware at what I'd reference as an elevated level, I was not inclined to back liberal actions within it's ranks.

In truth, I have seen Republicans make screw-ups over the years, but they were mostly an anomoly. During the cold war, we stood as one against Communism and it's treachery. Once the U. S. S. R. disolved, some within our ranks seemed to think it would be okay to move farther Left, actually buying into their concepts. Others were merely luke warm Republicans, nowhere near the lock-step of those who hold this nation dear, and are not willing to sell out on Soverignty, our Founding Documents, or our Founding Fathers and their ideals and concepts.

Further note to "Republicans": y'all best be replacing the clowns at the top of your (R) establishment. In my estimation, they suck more than the out-of-the-closet communist (D)'s. At least the commies are committed to their effort, and the bastards are accomplishing what they set out to do, unlike the spineless Stupid Party. "Spineless, stupid party..", boy does that hit the nail on the head. The current House of Representatives is an embarrassment to Conservatism. I am constantly motivated to apologize to the Citizens of the United States for the House's lack of clarity and energy in defense of our national soul. This is top level treachery IMO.

Brokered convention? Hmmmm. Romney beats the Halfrican? Hmmmm. Romney's coattails drag a majority of Tea Party candidates to the Senate? Hmmmm. What could possibly go wrong? Well, if they fall in line behind Romney and pass his desires with gusto, we could be in a world of hurt. Taking note of his past judicial nominees, it disgusts me to think he and not Obama might be the person to flip the court. If they stand up to him, we might dodge the bullet. Frankly, with what we're presented with, a deadlocked federal government should be best. Then again, Obama will attempt to rule by Executive Order, thumbing his nose at our three branch government model. And of course the Republicans will be mute.

See ya in the gulag. ...he said with 25% humor and 75% real concern. I hear ya.

wow, very well said. Well thought, concise, with just a dash of “src” to keep it light. Considering the level of posts around these days, (mine included) I’d put your reply in the 96 percentile. However, I must in good conscience bring up an item or two. The geographical opposite of the (r) party is not a(d), and these days, the reverse is certainly not the case, or the opposite of Obama would not be likely Romney.

Even Newt is no more than a remnant of what was a pre-internet conservative elephant. There’s even been a new sex technique named the Gingrich style; everyone knows your done but you refuse to pullout...

But what drives me crazy is that Romney is not an Enigma, I held my nose while voting for Dole, knowing I was bailing the Titanic with a colander, Mc Cain, hoping that who ever this woman from Alaska was it wasn’t all bad, or Dole again, and now, it’s like -hmm- every time I cozyed up to a candidate this cycle, he and she was found to be too impure to run for office while what? Banks, tree huggers and the EPA try to screw up every industry we need to live, all sponsored by Obama.

Really? People that weren’t raised in a vacuum, or want a world modeled after Star Trek, they can still be MY choice!

But, the question... what do we do if Romney is the candidate... I’ve got to say, I haven’t nailed that one down for sure yet. You adults may need to work that one out for me, though it is strangely prophetic that Glocks response was #666

I am getting tired of wanting to be a conservative sponsored by the republicans and hating who they want to represent me with, and I’m about done coming to them, they’d better start coming to me or I’ll just work with the conservative part...

anyway thank you for a ray of thoughtful insight I’m rambling, and even spell check may not be able to save me soon.

again, nice job..
