“No one else is running !
This has got to be the stupidest attitude ever in FreeRepublic.
Newt’s out, Santorum’s out, Paul was never in ...
Yeah, sure Romney sucks, but ANY vote not for Romney is a zero vote.”
ON WHICH planet have you been, when Romney was crucifying Gingrich and Santorum with dozens of millions dollars of slanderous ads, and the active approval of the degenerate GOP establishment?
A vote for Romney would be a betrayal of our conservative principles, dear to FReepers. Obviously, you can spit or don’t have any principle to defend.
They dished it out pretty well too early on. Santorum bashed him daily and viciously (and rightfully so) on Romneycare. It's ridiculous to say the ads had an effect on the way conservatives voted. That's like saying conservative voters were uninformed and stupid enough to be swayed by the ads. How do you explain the conservative vote for Romney in the exit polls?
OK ... so ... who’ya votin’ for?
Principle I got ... I jus' don' got no principled candidate.
The generic opinion of Romney is; He's a business man and can bring prosperity/wealth back to America.
I'm suspicious as to HOW he might do this, but I feel confident he CAN.
Look, I don't like him any more than the next guy, and I vascilated a little in the beginning, but I really warmed to Newt when I thought he could outrun Romney. Imagine my surprise when all he could do was 10% ... THAT was a shocker to me.
