Is Mitt Becoming More Conservative?

By all means. I will predict that JimRob will likely state that...

[Timber Rattler]

I believe the major way to gain a stronger social conservative foothold in America is via fiscal conservatism.

Sigh. You can't separate the two. Period.

[Timber Rattler]

That isn’t dissent.

Sure it is.

It never ceases to amaze me how quickly some FR "Conservatives" applaud the GOP-E whenever it attacks the Paul dissenters when it is simultaneously attacking us Conservative dissenters. I guess that it's OK when it's only the Paulbots who are being smited though.

Talk about a hypocritical double standard...

Thanks pal... I am trying to change that. Those that cannot support mitt should treat other FReepers as they wish to be treated. Those that support mitt should also be civil... we all should. We can be passionate without being mean. Do unto others... it is the golden rule. We should save the venom for ALL of our common enemies... and we are family here... not enemies... except for the trolls and they are overtly obvious to all. All we can do is set examples for others. I care too much about FR and our Conservative community to cause ill will. Have a great day friend.

Will send FRper mail.

My remark was more towards the GOP’s treatment of Akin.

[Timber Rattler]

Would it absolutely kill you to try a different tactic when there is a Marxist in the WH instead of the usual “let me apply a purity test to my conservative friends on FR?”

[Cronos]

who’s “banging” on other conservatives? Read my post 13 and tell me who is “banging” — I pointed out statistics and on us focussing on saving the 99.9% of babies that are due to abortion reasons that not even the left can defend.

[LibLieSlayer]

You do not have to take such a defensive stance my FRiend... you will not be attacked or impuned by me. I was just trying to point out that Sarah is active and working for TEA Party ideology and its candidates... and that she is effective. I worship CHRIST my friend... and no man or woman. I appreciate your response though.

I am sure conservative. More than I even realized until this past year. I get the NEED to DEFEAT OBAMA. But I am not insulting my intelligence by ignoring the reality before us. To Me Romney is NOT Conservative in any way , shape or form. He is dashes of Bush mixed with dashes of McCain and a slice of Christie. Paul Ryan is tons more conservative, but nowhere near Sarah Palin or Herman Cain.

[joe fonebone]

I voted for bush twice.... but there was a stark contrast between the candidates..

I voted for mcpain, as there was a stark contrast between the candidates..

In this case there is very little, from a political ideology point, between the two..

as I said, i do not listen to what people say, i look at what they do...

mcromneys record speaks for itself, ad nauseum..

take his lifelong stance against conservatism, combine it with his fathers stance, his 2008 stance and add in the recent rule changes, put them into a blender and blend together, then dump it out onto the table..

do you know what you get?

A coordinated effort to drive out and render irrelevent the conservative / constitutionalist wing of the republican party..

[wardaddy]

We were snookered by the rehabilitation of George Bush.

Not this time.

and with Romney we are starting out with worst to begin with

folks around here just have to have their cult of personality

and then begin the purges of dissenters

given JR’s views on Romney I don’t see him tossing the bolt at Romney criticizing here

We shall see

sorry to harpies out there...gonna be sorta dull eh?

no cool people cliques or high school halls to monitor with glee

just watching a piece last night on the current electoral layout and it seems the Forces of Romney have given up on Virginia. This state has a majority Republican Congressional delegation, a Republican dominated state legislature that controls both houses, a Republican Governor, Republican lt. Governor and a Republican Attorney General ~ and yet the Republican party can't quite figure out how to get people to vote for Romney.

Think there might be a problem with Romney?
