The primaries were a sham.

Wah. Every single person in the primaries had a moment in the sun (and at the top of the polls at one point). They sucked. Bottom line.

Now it's time for reality. It's either whine about Romney not being your pick, sit at home like a sissy or vote Obama out of office.

Some of you act like life is supposed to be fair.

Do you think the fact that five days ago the republican nominee formally announced that he was against the current pro-life party platform on abortion, and that he was personally committed to ‘health of the mother’ meaning abortion on demand, is worthy of conservatives discussing it?

Are you OK knowing that the party manipulated the rules to make sure Romney won?

The Michigan Republican Party (MRP) Credentials Committee voted 4-2 last night to give Mitt Romney both of the state's at-large delegates, State Policy Committee Chair Mike Cox told MIRS today.

Cox was one of two "no" votes on the committee which met via telephone, along with attorney Eric Doster The "yes" votes included GOP National Committeeman Saul Anuzis, a Romney supporter, and MRP Chair Bobby Schostak.

That would put the delegate split at 16 for Romney and 14 for Rick Santorum, after each candidate won 14 delegates apiece in those divided by Michigan's 14 congressional districts.

As MIRS first reported on Wednesday, the MRP was delaying a final decision on the delegate split until after consulting with attorneys.

Cox said that according to the MRP rules, Santorum and Romney should each get one of Michigan's two at-large delegates based on their take of the popular vote.

"I supported Mitt, but the vote was clearly wrong," Cox said of the Credentials Committee. "It's kind of like Third World voting. We published rules and then we voted to change the rules."

Bovine excrement. No, life isn’t always fair, but the primaries were obviously rigged. Guess you didn’t watch the talking heads on tv who proclaimed Romney the winner beforehand. Where do you think they got that from?

He/she seems to be claiming the votes weren’t real. This is loony conspiratorial garbage that has no place on FR.
