How does one justify a vote for Romney?

With the foisted increased possibility of Mittens buying becoming the Nominee, can you actually justify voting for him in the general election?

This is what I am truly curious to find out.

Virgil Goode info" http://www.goodeforpresident2012.com/

Gary Johnson info: http://www.garyjohnson2012.com/about

Personally, at this moment, I simply cannot vote for Romney under any circumstance. I am also convinced that if Romney runs against Obama, Romney will lose massively.

I'd really be interested in your feedback, especially in terms of how you potentially plan to justify voting for Romney if he indeed becomes the Nominee.

Thank you,

NRT

Answer: Think of having to look at and listen to Obama every day until January 2017.

And then think about what's going to happen to the country in that time.

We can always clean house later, but an enemy is breaking down the door right now...

Well said.

And voting for Romney, just lets the GOP keep thinking we are “all in” with what they are pushing. Writing in someone else, skipping the box for President, or otherwise NOT voting for Mitt, are at least options that provide feedback to the GOP that we are NOT in for Mitt.

Can someone explain to me how it is the GOP gets this feedback? Folks here apparently think that if Obama gets re-elected, the GOP (members of the establishment like Lugar) will say,

"Darn it! We should have run a more conservative candidate. That's how we could have won. We'll run a more conservative candidate in 2016."

Really? That's what the crowd thinks? Does this really make intellectual sense to any of you? We have to replace those clowns one senatorial and House of Reps election at a time, state by state, district by district. That's how it gets changed.

NOBODY WILL BE SENDING ANYBODY A MESSAGE. 80 year old politicians are not going to wake up one morning and say, "I'm going to be more conservative starting today!"

“We have to replace those clowns one senatorial and House of Reps election at a time, state by state, district by district. That’s how it gets changed.”

You’ve got that right! It must start from the bottom up. Meanwhile, I will not be dictated for whom to vote for by the “top” down

I’m Jewish, so intra-”Christian” discussions fly right over my head.

Y’all cosmologize however you wish, so long as you’re not trying to kill me daily (a la Muslims), I’m okay with that!

When Mormons start rioting, robbing, random beatings and calling for special treatment due to their being Mormon get back to me.

Mere lies and heresy NOT your thing?

Ok...

"Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD: But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more."

Jeremiah 31:31–34


To your knowledge; has the Lord made this NEW covenant with you guys yet?

“How do you plan to justify a vote for Mittens?”

Dumb question: Obama

I don’t like the choice but the alternative is terrifying.

It appears you have no knowledge one way or the other.

I'm sure that'll go over well when Judgment Day arrives.

You are sanctimonious. Christ's message was about the individual and his relationship with God. It was also about a lifestyle that puts others before self.

I'm not sure where your authority to judge the individual soul comes from, but I see heaping hypocrisy as you claim heresy while also apparently being able to freely condemn souls to hell.

I can only assume you are not Christian and not restrained by a faith and the teachings of Christ. If your mission was actually to save souls in the likeness of Christ, your approach and tactics would be more Christ like. While Christ was no Peacenic, we was not repetitive, fitful and hateful.

By your vitriol, I must assume the basis of your fouling attacks must indeed be vengeance for a wrong done to you.

I do not believe in LDS/Mormonism and do acknowledge Joe Smith and the beginnings of Mormonism are suspect. But the people I know are good people free to believe what they want. They are not strapping bombs on themselves, mutilating young girls genitalia, stoning rape victims to death, etc.

I may not agree with something that someone believes are says, but I will fight to the death to defend their freedom to believe and say whatever they want. That includes you Elsie and I think you should show some kind of like respect for at least the individual.

Many will justify voting for Romney if he brings in Sarah Palin as his running mate.

'as a Christian'; do you desire more to save souls or Nations?

I don't answer to you, Elsie. Your plight is the same of the High Priests that condemned Jesus to death by torture and crucifixion. You are a necessary evil that exists on earth so that followers of Christ will be tested and challenged to maintain his teachings and act as he would have us.

Mind you, I am not Mormon. I am Catholic. But I'm no fan of bullies either. Christ stopped the stoning of a whore and invited her to reform her sinful life. You are throwing stones in condemnation. You are a fool and blinded by your own arrogance. Thank you for your service to better my sould and expose your hatred. May God have mercy on you when you are judged.
