With Romney as the GOP presidential nominee, then if conservatives vote for “ANYBODY BUT ROMNEY OR OBAMA” it will result in four more years of Obama. No, thanks. I’m not handing the Supreme Court on a silver platter to some Marxist just so I can say “don’t blame me, I voted for Virgil Goode” (or some other third-party candidate with a 0% chance of winning).
If Obama wins VA, he will win reelection (unless he loses in both OH and PA). Goode’s intentions may be pure for all I know, but the effect of his candidacy will be to help the Democrat Party for which he ran for so many years until he left in 2001 in anticipation of GOP redistricting.
First order of business in Virginia is to restructure the party by shedding ALL the Mittbots ~ which will include the Governor, the Lt. Governor, several top ranked pukes in the legislature AND maybe all the county chairmen ~ but I haven't gone into the detailed analysis to find all those who are deserving of elimination.
We can rename it something else and attract a fairly sizeable faction of the African-American wing of the Virginia Democrat party ~ led by Doug Wilder.
Our guys would probably caucus with remaining Republicans but they have to take a pledge first.
Once we get through the restructuring option then we move on to national politics. By then other states betrayed by the Mittbots should have brought about their own revolution ~ with a minimum of carnage of course.
In the end the Republican establishment will become a small faction out in the "fringe" where they belong.
If this is successful, the Democrats can do the same with the Socialists in their ranks ~ cast them into the "fringe" and out of our lives.
It is important to get behind Romney so that we get more Souters on the Supreme Court and less Kagans.
