To: altura; All
I’ve found 46. But make your own list. It’s for my personal info only.

Wait a minute.

You mean to tell me that just because...
...dozens...
...and dozens...
...and dozens...
...and dozens...
...and dozens...
(etc)
...of FREEPERs were outspoken vs. Romney on this thread before I was able to come on board,
...I can't be #1 on your list?

(That's unfair)

So tell me:

What do I have to do to get bumped up to #1 on your list.

(OH. And btw. I'm not voting for Obama or Romney; I'll probably vote for Virgil Goode -- because this is a matter of Goode vs. evil)

Tom Hoefling is also a worthy choice for a vote.

And...for those who go "practical utilitarian political relativism" on me...be consistent...

If you claim that it's not practical or utilitarian enough to vote Third Party -- that they will lose, anyway -- well, so will Romney in liberal states. Romney's going to "lose, anyway" on the Left Coast (WA/OR/CA) + NY, NJ, MD, other states...

(Yet I haven't heard you or other FREEPERs tell those citizens in those states NOT to bother voting for Romney...why not?)

You see, we live within an electoral system where the popular vote -- and therefore your individual vote -- doesn't necessarily matter.

I say necessarily because I suppose if there were several hundred FREEPERs who voted for Bush in Florida when he ran vs. Gore -- but had in some way not managed to do that -- obviously that would have mattered more than we can imagine.

But other than that...no...
FREEPERs will not make ANY difference whatsoever in the POTUS race in...
...(a) liberal states where Obama will win, anyway...
...(b) nor for that matter even in conservatives states in the South and some Midwestern and Western states...where Romney will readily win even if you subtracted EVERY FREEPER vote in those states...

Therefore, Altura, and NOTE THIS: THERE IS NO CASE YOU CAN MAKE FOR ANY FREEPER TO VOTE FOR ROMNEY UNLESS THEY HAPPEN TO ALREADY LIVE IN A TRULY GENUINE SWING STATE

THEREFORE, A VOTE FOR ROMNEY IN THOSE NON-SWING STATES IS A SHEER, AUDACIOUS VOTE FOR A PRO-ABORT, BIG-GOVT, LIBERAL JUDGE-APPOINTER WHO PIONEERED SOCIALIST HEALTHCARE -- a vote for which there is NOT a single anti-0bama utilitarian reason to do that...because it won't make a difference

Oh, and btw: Romney nominated 75% of judges in MA who were non-Republicans...
...he has no track record of appointing conservative judges...
...and people who point to that as "some reason" for now voting for him are making this out from sheer phantasms floating in their cobweb brains in the dark of the night.

And all who seem to be willing to despise me because I prefer Romney to Obama.

I made the list which got you all so het up for my own personal comfort and information.

I was hoping very much that the people who prefer Obama to Romney were a minority on this board. I’d noticed the same names popping up over and over and I wondered just how many there were.

This is not an enemies list nor something I would share.

It was for me. So relax.

I still think the people who prefer Obama to Romney are a minority.

Please don’t waste time telling me how bad Romney is.

Did any of you see the news today that Obama is planning to grant immunity to young illegals (in the form of work permits)

Did any of you see the story about how political correctness resulted in the death of a lot of servicemen at Fort Hood.

These are just a couple of things that actually happened under Obama.

Don’t even try to tell me that Romney is worse.
