Then you’re a Dumba***...

I’ll vote for anyone with an R behind their name, if it means getting rid of the incompetent marxist idiot liar we now have in the White House.

I ant my daughter to have a future. How about YOU?

Of course. Call me a pragmatist but I’d rather someone OTHER than Hussain replace Ginsberg, who has one foot in the grave.

I will not vote for N. Leroy Gingrich if he is the GOP nominee.
Will you kick your feet and hold your breath until you turn blue? Get over it - this ain't about you.
Do you have ANY idea what Obama will try to do as a four year lame duck?
You don't have a clue how dangerous this man and his comrades really are.

If Mitt Milquetoast is so electable, why does he need any conservative support. He should get all of the moderate vote plus the RINO’s. He is home free. He doesn’t need us.

“All I see Romney doing is setting back the conservatives in the GOP by about another 10 years. I can’t vote for someone who I know is intent on destroying the only reason I support the GOP....conservatism.”

Romney would turn the clock back on the GOP to the time before Reagan. Back when the GOP didnt even really stand for small government, just being slightly to the right of the Democrats.

I’m no Romney supporter, but of the candidates who probably have a chance at the nomination...each could have a diatribe written about them. I’m voting Nobama...which means I’ll be voting for the GOP nominee.

Too soon to discuss, at least in a public way, what I would do if we get Mitt’ed on.

I certainly want the public to believe that Mitt is unacceptable as a nominee. (And maybe he is. I’m not sure. The fact that it’s another McCain-like close call is a shame.)

“I’ll vote for anyone with an R behind their name, if it means getting rid of the incompetent marxist idiot liar we now have in the White House.

But what exactly will change under Romney? He says he is against Obamacare but I have huge doubts he will do any more than fiddle around the edges with it. After all, it is modeled on his program. Our foreign policy will still be wishy washy. Our economic policy as well as he also is a Keynesian with a Keynesian economic advisor in the form of Greg Mankiw.

I don’t think that Mitt is sufficiently different than Obama to actually change the future for our kids. If you want your daughter to have a future you will not let the establishment think you will vote for anyone with an R after their name. Only then will they listen to us and nominate someone who actually believes in something (they dont have to be perfect, as I said I would vote for any of the other nominees).

We've been given a choice of Democrat or a Democrat-lite RINO every elecetion for as long as I've been here, and told we have to vote for the R to keep from getting the D, and it will be better next time.

But it never is, and we just keep going backwards. Sometimes just a few steps, other times in great leaps, but always backwards.

How do I get off this merry-go-round?

I think you’ll have a harder time convincing the anti-Mitt crowd here if Romney ends up being the nominee. But don’t worry about me. I promise not to vote for Obama either.

Quite possibly the makeup of the House and Senate. And you'd waste that on Hussain?

I never said a candidate has to be perfect. In fact, if you check out the very useful white papers on the candidates from the Club for Growth, http://www.clubforgrowth.org/whitepapers/ you will quickly see how imperfect all the candidates are. The point however is that Romney doesnt even meet the minimum threshold of what I consider to be a Republican or of someone who will be good at governing this country of ours. Im also sick of the establishment trying to make decisions for us.

If Mitt wins the nomination, I will write in Sarah Palin in the general, and maintain my personal integrity. I will not willingly cast my vote for this spineless liberal under any conditions.

If we’re going to lose to the Communists by putting up a Commie-Lite, I refuse to be a part of it. I’d rather face what’s coming with eyes wide open, and prepare for the worst.

First, I never said I wouldnt vote for my local GOP candidate, so I’m not giving Hussein anything.

Also, you don’t think much of the base will stay home in 2014 after 2 years of Romney betraying what we have been fighting for? I’d expect major democratic gains in that election, just like in 2006 after Bush moved to the left.

Every time I see Romney's face I remember the CNN-YouTube debate back in 2007 where he took a big dump on the Southern Battle Flag.

That moment I decided the he would NEVER get my vote under any circumstance.

“You don’t have a clue how dangerous this man and his comrades really are.”

On the contrary. I believe that if he loses, he and his people will have a fire sale of government secrets and equipment, contracts and a looting of the treasury until the Republicans take over Jan 20th.

Anyone remember what happened when the Clintons vacated the Whitehouse? They destroyed all the computers, destroyed the phone system, took all the furniture, sold everything that wasn’t bolted down from Air Force 1 on Ebay, etc. ad nauseaum. The media just laughed. But what if we had been attacked that day?

Romney can’t even win his own party without character assassination and an assist from the media. I’m pretty sure he won’t be getting an assist from the media in the general campaign.

Regardless of how bad Obama is, the GOP nominee will need a motivated base to come out and support him. I know people don’t want to hear this, but not being Obama isn’t going to be enough. If Romney can’t even motivate his supposed base enough to win the nomination, how can anyone expect he will have a motivated base to support him in the general election?

I won’t be bullied into making a crappy vs. crappier decision by the GOP establishment. They did this with Dole and McCain, and they are running the exact same plan again. Remember this is the party that gives conservatives good deals like “Gang of...”, the debt limit debacle, and decisions like Blunt vs. Johnson. I would rather vote for a write in candidate, than support the continued destruction of the only party with a semblance of a conservative bone.
