Quit bitch’n... Its going to be Romney vs Obama, question is what are you or any of us going to do about it, stand around in little groups saying,” I’ll be damned if I vote for Romney”. We’ll all be damned if we don’t... comprende?
“The Republican Party needs to realize this train is going down the rails and off the cliff.”
All-aboard....gun control, Romneycare, gay marriage, en route to socialism.
I agree -- and we might as well kiss the House good-bye and give up all hope of the Senate. Some people -- like FReepers -- will go to the polls no matter what, even if they will write in or vote Libertarian for President. A whole lot of people will vote if they're excited about a candidate (or a local referendum question). And a whole lot might vote if it's not inconvenient. In any case, all those liberals and moderates the GOPe is counting on for Mitt are most unlikely to vote conservative down-ticket.
Romney seems to be leading Obama in some polls, but Obama hasn't started to fight -- even he might suspect that something might go "wrong," and Romney, his dream Republican opponent, won't be the nominee. All that Bain LBO stuff isn't going to look good to a lot of people (it doesn't look good to a lot of conservative free-marketers), and I hear Andrea Mitchell has made a small start on bringing Mormonism into the mix.
And Mrs. Malaprop Romney seems to be doing his best to antagonize those conservatives who planned to hold their noses and vote for him, by saying he knows the conservatives don't like him, but he's sure they'll come around and vote for him anyway.
I’m sorry, but we have to stop this. I don’t like Romney myself. Four years of Romney may hurt this nation, but four more years of Obamunism will destroy it. It’s the devil you don’t know versus the devil you do, and if you have to hold your nose while punching the ticket for Romney, for all of our sakes, do it! I am desperately worried that some of the conservative bitter-enders will let Obama in the door again because they can’t see past the end of their noses.
