“I’m old enough to remember when many Conservatives said that Reagan was “Too Libera;” to make a good Prez.”
Maybe by the reactionaries to the right of Conservatives, but not by big C Conservatives. Reagans speach at the 1976 Convention cemented his Conservative credentials and scared the bejesus out of the party elite. Reagan had a long track record in speaches and writtings as a Conservative, unlike liberal lite Romney. The BS is yours.
Yes, the Primaries are over. Unfortunately we are stuck with Romney, who 65%+ of the Republican base does not want. For me, the 2012 elections are all about electing a Conservative Congress in order to keep Romney in line and hold his feet steadily to the fire. Romney a conservative????? I say “No confidence.” None whatsoever.
I have doubts about Romney. I have no doubts about Obama. I think Romney will listen to a GOP House and hopefully a GOP Senate. I know Obama does not give a damn about congress. I know what Obama will appoint to SCOTUS. I know Romney would not select anyone remotely close to the radicals Zero did.
I know our nation is going bankrupt under Obama. I know Obama has no clue about the economy or capitalism. I think Romney will make efforts to rein in government spending because he wants a second term and is a good businessman.
I think Obama does not like America. I think Romney likes America. Obama does not care about future generations. Romney seems to genuinely understand how immoral it is to saddle our children and grandchildren with crushing debt.
Everyone can decide for themselves. Despite all the angst here on FR, this is not a difficult decision for me at all. Romney was not my first choice, but I hope he destroys Obama and surprises us all. We can’t afford 4 more years and 1-3 more Obama Justices on SCOTUS.
ABO!
