So what about freepers? we like paul ryan? i like what he says, i just wonder if all Romney has done is given a bigger target to he whose name may not be spoken.
I watched part of the Romney festivities/announcement speech. It was the first time I saw the Mittster so energized ....it was good to see. Hoping Ryan will light a fire in the campaign and stay on message ...he has it in him. :)
Perhaps people here need a better grip on reality so that they can prepare for the likely future rather than wasting energy on Republican Establishment politics. This ticket was hand picked by the R Establishment.
“Conservatives” are just so many Charlie Browns who never seem to realize what Lucy will do with the football.
You are behaving like a spoiled brat.
It is not the point of politics to affirm your ego or justify your positions.
It is the PURPOSE of elections and politics to eliminate the worst choices among those who seek power over us.
Obama is the worst choice, and must be eliminated through the ballot box.
“So, your solution is to simply poke a knife in the football and make it impossible for anyone to play this game?”
It isn’t a game, and the choices are only superficially different. Moreover, you don’t seem to understand that reality is the master of politics. Reality is going to dictate what happens in the medium term future, not political speeches, ads, or any of the other things that politicians do to manufacture a faux reality for the easily duped and led.
Knock yourself out for Mittens. If Obama wins, the bus goes over the cliff at 100 mph; if Mittens wins the bus goes over the cliff at 89.8 mph. Either way the people in the bus are dead.
I’ll work for real conservatives running for national office like Ted Cruz and for local conservatives, but I refuse to waive the pom poms for a liberal hack like Romney.
I’d prefer Jack Ryan.
A serious game at that, on par with the gladiators in the coliseum but STILL A GAME!
You take yourself far too seriously, yet you do not take your decisions in this matter seriously at all.
You are not being asked who you like.
You are not being stroked, your ego is not being served, so you sulk, complain, whine and act like a brat.
Romney is far, far better for this country than Obama.
You support Obama.
It is as simple as that.
You are exactly what the people who gave us Nixon, Ford, the Bushes, Dole, McCain, and Romney count on.
Romney is already proving to be a poor campaigner, and Ryan, although bright enough and undoubtedly personally upright, will be an albatross around Mittens’ neck by the time the Obamalini smear machine is done with him.
To paraphrase you: You support socialism with Republican face.
It’s as simple as that.
The main difference between the R socialists and the D socialists is that the D socialists will cheat to win, and the R socialists are afraid to do anything serious about it.
