"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton
"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan
"A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792

“Electability” is a fleeting thing.

I’m only voting for him because at least he has some ounce of patriotism. Obama’s hatred for the US is sickening. But I am not excited and won’t attend any rallies or donate a penny and still holding out hope for a hung convention.

Mitt Romney was a moderate governor in Massachusetts

The myth is that he was a moderate ...

ROMNEY 2012 PLATFORM:

Name that issue:

No, Yes, Maybe, That depends, it is possible, not very likely, could happen, probably not, absolutely, no way, to be determined, whatever you want it be, kind of..... but I will stand firm on that!

[MichaelCorleone]

ann coulter refers to conservatives as ‘morons’ and ‘pureists’ for failing to see the light on Romney.

It’s ann who’s looking like the moron these days.

But, but, but, Barbara and George said to Larry King... We love Mitt Romney!

I assume all this self mutilation will be all attributed to a point being made and we will all vote for the non communist in November?

[GeronL]

I won’t vote for Romney regardless. I will never vote for someone who has supported and made being pro-abortion their way of life.

[GeronL]

“self mutilation”??

I’m not mutilating myself

[O6ret]

You are wasting your time and FR bandwith.

Like it or not, Mitt will be the nominee.

It’s time to get with the program.

[rlbedfor]

I guess either way then according to you abortion is a given in the next President, just a matter of being a communist or not.

[Goreknowshowtocheat]

If we can’t actually vote for Obama, we should all stay home, that gives us deniability and gives him 1/2 vote. Romney is certainly far worse (given the number of posts).

[fml]

I understand.

You prefer a hate filled racist divider...gotcha ;)

[Yashcheritsiy]

Ahhhh, you might want to run that by JimRob before you go speaking for Free Republic.

[Rudder]

For whom are voting, if not the GOP nominee?

[SoConPubbie]

I guess either way then according to you abortion is a given in the next President, just a matter of being a communist or not.

Nope, it's just a matter of being a communist or a lying, left-wing, Progressive Liberal and if your conscience and conservative principles will allow you to vote for either.

Furthermore, and more important, why pimp somebody as awful as Romney is when there are 46% of the delegates yet to be won in the GOP Primaries and you have a perfectly good conservative like Newt to support and vote for?
