I didn't "lose" the election...the stay-at-home conservatives have destroyed the US.
I aim to politically destroy all liberal republicans and ensure they never win a single election again.
That's fine if you have conservative replacements for them. Handing a seat to a RAT screws everyone, not the RINO.
That is just like; If you were playing chess, and had the black game pieces, then deliberately lost them because you didn't like the way they looked.
Only this isn't chess, the stakes are much much higher.
Your position, at election time, means you are not in the fight.
The liberal republicans destroyed the US when they ran a liberal republican candidate.
You voted for a liberal. You bitched and whined when people told you they weren't going to vote for a pro-abortion, anti-gun, pro-amnesty, socialized medicine, big government liberal.

Your way isn’t working. Here’s proof.
Dole
McCain
Romney.
Time to try something different.
And BTW, it was the moderates and independents that did not show up
at the polls. You know, the groups that Romney courted and counted on.
... is to vote to empower an agent of most of the same stuff we object to in Obama? How has that been working?
Oh, I forgot. You vote according to what the other guy is, rather than what your guy is.
It's that "voting against" mathematical quality of a vote. Where intent has negative numeric value so that you can actually vote "against" the opponent. The price of doing so is to vote FOR Romney, but to you, that's irrelevant; the point is that you voted against Obama! Or Hillary. Or whatever nightmare du jour is looming.
RLock, intentions mean diddly. So what if you intend to vote "against" Obama or Hillary or whoever. The ACTION was to vote for the Republican party to advance the left's agenda. On five major fronts, Romney clearly has embraced and advanced government expansion, from government-run health care to forced formal acceptance of open homosexuality everywhere from adoption agencies to the military.
But wait -- it's that mathematical quality! You're not so much voting for that, you see, as you are voting against Obama, Hillary, et al. Except when Romney wins, Rock, what then?
What did voting "against" get you?
So you guys keep saying but you are not changing a single vote from a single conservative over to a useless POS like Romney. Run him again. We'll beat him again. Rinse and repeat as often as necessary for you to get the message.
Romney is a babykiller, a gun grabber, a promoter of "gay" everything, a member of a family not known to have EVER provided even one soldier or sailor or airman to our military, neither in peace nor in war, is the son of a father and mother who both favored babykilling, and he is not worth "fighting for."
Obozo is not, whatever Obozo may imagine, the epicenter of American history. On or about 1/21/17. he will leave office. The republic has lasted this long and it ill last that long. What the republic cannot survive is the absence of a genuine opposition party to Obozo. Hint: McConnell, Boehner, Romney and their spineless ilk do NOT constitute an opposition party. They are cowards who refuse to fight when they can win. They have no principles whatsoever. All they are interested in is farming the US Chamber of Crony Capitalists for money for campaigns and trust funds. They are total disgraces.
Since 2010, we have heard how they cannot do anything without control of the Senate. They are now set up for temporary control of the Senate. The new mantra will be that they cannot do anything without control of the White House. They, no doubt, have a dictionary of excuses as to why they cannot get anything done even after they have control of the House, Senate and White House.
All of this is why a growing number of mere Republicans, to say nothing of actual conservatives, become committed to NEVER voting for trash like Romney or McCain or Dole or Bush the Elder EVER again. When the $$$$ dominated yacht club "Republicans" become totally unelectable, the GOP will collapse and we will be ready for a new second party.
Dig your heels in as deep as you like, you cannot save the GOP. The Party's over. It's time to call it a day! Trash like Willard can buy nominations but neither he nor anything like him can get the votes needed in November to be elected. The only thing you can do is to nominate a candidate WORTHY in his or her own right to receive conservative votes.
If your only priority is to defeat Obozo or the Arkansas Medusa or Fauxcahontas, you don't have much of an imagination and certainly not one worth following. The GOP seems to think that a governing vision and a commitment to principles and purposes are unnecessary. How many beatings do you suppose the GOP must absorb before the GOP gets the point? Aren't you embarrassed to lose again and again to Obozo and/or the Arkansas Medusa?
Oh, and the 2008 election was lost the day McCain secured the nomination. The 2012 election was lost the day that Willard secured the nomination. Lest I forget to mention it.
I, for one, did not stay at home. I didn't vote for Romney. I voted for a third-party candidate who also happens to be a long-standing member of this forum. I refused to waste my vote on a loser like Romney.
And, I don't think Romney's responsible for all this talk about Romney in 2016. I think it's all coming from his wife, Ann. That woman will never give up.
Go ahead, Willard, run again. It's probably better than a divorce. But, you know like I know that you'll just get stomped again.
