Conservatives and Romney work at working together

You can pick Obama, it’s a free country, so far, just don’t pretend.

The only one here who's pretending is you. Probably on a lot of levels.

[Innovative]

Do you have a problem with reality?

The conservatives I mentioned and many others have endorsed and are campaigning for Romney.

[Finny]

svcw: “Not supporting Romney is not the same as supporting BHO.”
Inno: Yes it is. The vote you are withholding from Romney may be the vote he would have needed to beat Obama.

Therefore Romney is ENTITLED to your vote if you don't like Obama. So much so that if you deny that entitlement, you are SUPPORTING Barack Obama!

Don't you see, it's all so so simple!

Wrong, Innovative. It's nuts. It's a nutty, devious rationale.

Romney wants to bend people to government as much as Obama does. Voting for either one is LOCO.

"The emerging consensus among conservatives is that the Republican House will lead the conservative charge and Romney will be in the White House to sign bills, rather than advance his own agenda,"

Conservatives remind me of Charlie Brown as Lucy holds the football. They just never learn.

"*sigh* Alas, we have no cheesy grits."

See, that right there was where I decided to get behind Mitt Romney! He came down to the South and said he liked cheese grits! I put my teeth in, grabbed the coon dogs, and went out to where hubby was cleaning the cee-ment pond and said, "Honey, I think we got us a winner this time!"

[Finny]

Really! Show some links for Palin. She hasn't endorsed Romney -- though I think she probably will at some point, and I'll be disgusted. But as far as I know, Palin has rather scrupulously avoided supporting or endorsing Romney BY NAME. You are loose with the truth.

Coulter is a northeast liberal Republican. Being anti-abortion (as I am) doesn't make her a conservative, it makes her an anti-abortion Republican. Calling out the feminist agenda (as I do, too, in my own way) doesn't make her a conservative, it makes her someone who isn't falling for the meme. Here's the deal: she's supported Romney for qutie awhile, and Romney is a demonstrated, on-the-record, documented liberal-style statist. Therefore she fails muster as a conservative. It's pretty simple -- bigger government = ANTI conservatism.

I think for myself, FRiend. What other people who call themselves conservatives think is outside my range of caring. I read, analyze, and make up my own mind.

It's interesting that you interpret it as having a "problem with reality" when my own mind makes up differently than yours. I think you're perfectly in touch with reality -- I just think you're wrong. :^)

You can call the sky red all you want to, but it’s still blue.

And you can call Romney red all you want to, but he's still blue. Therein lies the problem.

I was just thinking that this morning, reading an email from a Christian conservative friend who happily has convinced himself that Romney will be just fine because he's made it clear in debates that he won't support activist judges or pro-abortion legislation.

Don't worry, Romney promised!

So you’d rather have four more years of Eric Holder and allow a neo-communist to pack our courts with like-minded uberlefties all in the name of conservative party purity? Well done, Comrade. Well done.

[svcw]

You guys are so correct maybe it is time to suspend all my conservatism and vote for Romney.

He did come to California and went surfing at his private beach in from of his soon to be completed 12,000 sq ft home, so I would realize he is just one of us little people.

No, I do not care how much money he has earned I care that he is a liberal to his core.

That's the context of a vacuum. You think the limited government conservatives who will probably be sweeping Congress will just lie down and roll over? You think moderate Republicans in Congress would raise their hands in surrender, too? You think Obama and his crew are omnipotent?

If you're going to play the "so you'd rather have" game, so YOU would rather have the most powerful Republican in America be a person with a distinguished record of actively ADVANCING five major liberal agendas, including activist judicial picks, the environmentalist agenda, abortion, homosexual "rights," and state-run health care?

You think it isn't loopy to vote FOR that and give him a Congress where his own guys would be split -- moderates vs conservatives -- and the moderates would have support from the OTHER side of the aisle, and they'd be able to say their Republican president had a "mandate" and that the conservatives were really just the minority of the people's will? Essentially making any pretence of the Republican party as being a valid opposer of bigger government, ridiculous?

Well done, Rover. Roll over.

You are such a little monkey.

Vulture CORPORATISM is the behavior of
BACKSTABBER, and Bad Governor, Milt Romney.

Try reading a little.

[Timber Rattler]

Most conservatives are starting to face reality. The primaries are over, it's Obama or Romney. Period.

I'll never vote for a double-talking, pro-homo, gun-grabbing, mandate-loving, tax-hiking, abortion-embracing hack like Romney. Period.

To hell with him and the GOP-E!

[Diogenesis]

Conservatives HATE Romney's behavior.

Who supports your Milt ROmneyCARE?

I think all I said on the matter of who wins that it's harder to beat Obama than the Mittbots have misled you to believe. That's because it requires, at a minimum, that Obama receive 15% fewer votes than he did in 2008 while the Republican candidate has to get MORE than the highest vote total ever received by any Republican!

You cannot win under those conditions unless you have a candidate who inspires ALL factions in the Republican party to joyfully participate in the campaign, and then it's touch and go at best.

You cannot win with a Barry Goldwater type candidate who focuses on the business community and tells the social Conservatives to take a hike.

I think we've been over this territory before. So far not a single Mittbot has come up with a single reason for any social Conservative to vote for Romney. On that score he is no different than Obama!

[Windflier]

We are witnessing the republican party devolve into the democrat party.

The Republican party does appear to be leaving us, doesn't it? Well, they do so at their own risk. Moving left is the very worst thing they could possibly do right now, when the people are moving right.

If they push it, they're going to force the Tea Party to replace them.

[Varsity Flight]

Yep, Hillary Romney is there to sign bills, Federal Government blank check bills.
