But when I think of the debates, I see a circus, with each candidate getting a couple of questions each, and voters coming away more undecided than ever.

Debates amongst primary candidates are a joke considering how many are in attendance.

They don't accomplish anything other than giving face time to all the secondary participants.

for the life of me I've never been able to figure out how half of the candidates think they actually have a chance to win the primary. I'm almost willing to suggest that there be a primary to the primary in order determine the 3 top contenders............

What disturbs me the most and the main topic I constantly get attacked for is the number of people who choose to stay home simply because their candidate didn't win the primary.

It didn't matter that Romney won the primary and the rest of the contenders's supporters stayed home, the same result would have been if say Santorum had won. The Romney voters would have stayed home........

People got to realize that there is no perfect candidate that is going to appeal to every Republican voter and by staying home is going to accomplish nothing but a victory for the Democrat party........

I completely agree about those debates. If you notice, it’s always the Republicans who have a bus full of people up on the stage, playing at running for president.

And I also agree, no candidate is perfect.

I voted for Romney in 2012. I felt really uneasy about doing it after he said what he said about homosexual adoption, because I had been praying about it for some time. And as a result, I had a spiritual crisis-—separation from God, I guess you’d call it-—that lasted a long time. And it began the day after the election. It was like day to night.

I learned a lesson, and I learned it the hard way. I can’t, and won’t, vote for someone with an R behind his name if he espouses values I know to be wrong. Next time I might not make it back into God’s graces.
