“Norm Lenhart is becoming more and more convincing in his argument that indeed, people like you WANTED what Romney has to offer.”
Thats because Norm Lenhart has people on FR every hour of every day proving all on their own with no input from him that he’s right all the way down the line. Not because he says he is. Because reality shows he is. You should just accept it Finny. Don’t accept it because he wants you to. Accept it because the facts show you the truth.
It sucks. He will be the first to say it sucks and he wishes he were wrong. But every day on the most right wing sight there is, and in the general population at large, the people prove he’s correct. ;)
Now, either Thibodeaux and millions of others who claim the label "conservative" understand why Romney has zero businesses being a Republican but still operate on an obsolete model of party loyalty, or they are happy with the general direction Romney wants to take the country. They are one or the other. I am very much afraid they are the latter.
In which case, again, it is a total waste of time right now even thinking of depending on the Republican party for anything except as a source of voters to convert to the new "third" party.
And at that, it is better approached as a true second party because with guys like Romney passing as "Republican," the two major parties actually represent only one product or choice (cola soft drink) in two different brands, Coke or Pepsi. It is a hugely apt analogy. We only have one major party going by two names, these days; it's time NOW to go Second Major Party, Cruz and all, if Norm is correct.
