Really, would this be the same GOP involved in NY-23?
The same GOP that’s done jack-shit on Fast & Furious? (Issa is not “the GOP”.)
The same GOP that rolled over for Obama’s Syria KMA (”Kinetic Military Action”)?
The same GOP that when it controlled both the legislature and executive branch did not even put out a proposal for overturning Roe v. Wade? (It’s been a part of the stated/official Republican party planks since the 80a.)
The same GOP that passed the Patriot Act, and allowed agencies to basically write their own warrants? (Take a look at the reasoning behind the 4th Amd.)
Would this be the same GOP that claims to enforce borders, as part of their national defense policies, yet leaves them wide-open?

No, I’m not sure that a GOP president and Congress will do anything to make things better. I think the very best I could hope for is that things stay the same.

The thing that cemented my view that the GOP is generally about talk and not action is the selection, anointment if you will, of Romney. Precisely because Romney is, for the most part, “the same as Obama”: a socialist. The only real difference is that Romney is of the school that wants to make it seem good; therefore, I cannot say that Romney will in any significant cases pull an aspect of the Government away from socialism. As I said, the best I’d hope for under him is “things stay the same.”

That’s the big problem: this,”the same”, is not acceptable.


You just wasted a lot of space here because I didn’t even read it.

So you just show that the ABO/Romney people haven't even the respect for differing opinion to even listen. Nicely done.

I read it. He’s right. And it’s readily apparent that you do not understand that if a Republican Senate and House materializes, there’s essentially nothing Romney can’t do, even if it is VERY destructive to the nation.

Obama would stand the chance of being opposed. Romney won’t be, no matter what he comes up with.

You would do well to consider this rather than trash others for speaking truth.

I believe Romney will be elected. He will accomplish it without my help or the help of many other Conservatives.

Over the next four or eight years, you’ll be here defending Romney no matter what he does. Essentially, Conservatism will have almost no voice while he is in office.

That’s what happened under Bush. Here we go again.

This sure works wonders for our cause.

And despite this, no matter what Romney does, it will be said a Conservative Republican made the decision, thus destroying the ability for any Conservative to voice truth with credibility. It all but destroys our brand.

Oh, I can’t wait... /s

We’re f’d. The next four years will see our nation destroyed further, and with the support of folks who should have known what was coming.

Not only will it destroy our voice during his terms in office, it will take years to regain credibility do to the damage he will have done to the credibility of Conservatives.

Obama makes our voices louder. Romney will reduce our voices to a faint whisper.

Any criticism of him will be labeled as coming from extreme right wing fundamentalist Christians.

Doesn’t that sound great.
