I will not vote for Mitt Romney in the Republican primary, even if all other Republican candidates drop out. I’ll just cast a protest vote.

Right f’n on. If Mitt gets the nod, I’ll work like hell to help him get elected. So, apparently, will Sarah Palin.

On your bike cultist, don't forget your tie and helmet.

He’ll be gone in 2016!

The party isn't going to allow a challenger to a GOP president. Anyone who believes they will is a moron. Besides, this expecting political salvation is for souls that are already lost.

There are a lot of important down-ballot races. You need to vote in those elections, even if you abstain at the top of the ticket.

Really? How about if you have SharonTate on the ticket?

That's what you got with Romney.

Best bet is to get this loser off the ticket.

SCP has indicated he (she) will continue to post Romney hit pieces no matter what until the election and then thereafter. He (she) gets his (her) jollies off that way, I reckon.

The time for foolish blustering is past. We have an election to win. There are hundreds of federal, state and local races at stake and wasting energy in this fashion is simply working for Obama and his federal and down ballot candidates.

Conservatives DON’T sell their souls.... I won’t be voting for the repub in this race, no matter who wins the nomination... That was decided from the get go - nothing to vote for.

We need to remember how frankenstein got elected in Minnesota. It was a 3rd party (so called independent) probably a rat who got him elected.

Well - you will get what you deserve if there are too many like you but you, in my book, are as sorry as Obama and his Marxist ideology. The founders of this country feared there would be people like you who don’t give a damn.

I’ll vote for Romney over Obama and I won’t tell one lie to do it. Romney is not my type of guy but he is orders of magnitude better than Obama.

What? God is just going to be unprovoked when so-called "conservatives" -- so-called "God-fearing people" -- vote for somebody who thinks they can compete with Him for godhood?

I wonder how many so-called "God-fearing" conservatives will by Summer & Fall become "apologists" for Mormonism...apologists for Mormonism's racism...and apologists for Romney's "I'm a god-in-embryo, you're-a-god-in-embryo...wouldn't you like to be a god, too? Drink the Koolaid..."

For those who haven't had a Mormon "god-in-embryo" primer...here's what the Dems will be launching forth this Summer & Fall:

Many people know of Spencer W. Kimball, the 12th "prophet" of the Lds church (1973-1985), as the man who allowed blacks to become Mormon priests in 1978.

But did you know Mormonism teaches you are all "gods in embryo"??? (And Kimball was one of its key proponents)

Did you know that Mormonism teaches the false "gospel" of self-transformation -- of pulling yourself up by the bootstraps to become a god? (And Kimball was one of its key proponents)

Spencer W. Kimball on these very topics:

1969 "Being a god in embryo with the seeds of godhood neatly tucked away in him, and with the power to become a god eventually, man need not despair...he must...transform himself..." (Spencer W. Kimball, The Miracle of Forgiveness, pp. 173-174)

A couple he was advising in Kimball's office "did not understand that forgiveness is not a thing of days or months or even years but is a matter of intensity of feeling and transformation of self...This couple seemed to have no conception of satisfying the Lord, of paying the total penalties and obtaining a release..." (Ibid, p. 156)

To Kimball, you had to "pay the total penalties" for your sin -- vs. that being a role occupied by the true Jesus Christ.

September, 1974: Man can transform himself and he must. Man has in himself the seeds of godhood, which can germinate and grow and develop. As the acorn becomes the oak, the mortal man becomes a god. It is within his power to lift himself by his very bootstraps from the plane on which he finds himself to the plane on which he should be. It may be a long, hard lift with many obstacles, but it is a real possibility. Source: http://speeches.byu.edu/reader/reader.php?id=6057 (Spencer W. Kimball speech entitled Be Ye Therefore Perfect 9/17/74 devotional address @ BYU)

1975: Man is created in the image of God. He is a god in embryo. He has the seeds of godhood within him, and he can, if he is normal, pick himself up by his bootstraps and literally move himself from where he is to where he shows he should be." Source: http://emp.byui.edu/marrottr/LovevsLust.pdf, "Love vs. Lust," Spencer W. Kimball, Provo: BYU Publications, 1975

November 1977: Self-mastery, then, is the key, and every person should study his own life, his own desires and wants and cravings, and bring them under control. Man can transform himself and he must. Man has in himself the seeds of godhood, which can germinate and grow and develop. As the acorn becomes the oak, the mortal man becomes a god. It is within his power to lift himself by his very bootstraps from the plane on which he finds himself to the plane on which he should be. It may be a long, hard lift with many obstacles, but it is a real possibility. To be perfect, one can turn to many areas as a starting place....As we have stated before, the way to perfection seems to be a changing of one’s life—to substitute the good for the evil in every case. Source: By President Spencer W. Kimball An address given to students of Weber State College, Ogden, Utah on 4 November 1977 http://lds.org/ldsorg/v/index.jsp?hideNav=1&locale=0&sourceId=244ed0640b96b010VgnVCM1000004d82620a____&vgnextoid=2354fccf2b7db010VgnVCM1000004d82620aRCRD

July, 1978 Ensign Magazine: Lds church officially endorses Kimball Weber State College comments by publishing them in their official magazine

This quote also becomes part of Chapter 19 of what Lds officially teach college students in their Institute curricula: See http://institute.lds.org/manuals/doctrines-of-the-gospel-student-manual/doc-gosp-11-20-19.asp

*******

The sheer # of supposed "God-fearing" people sanctioning & endorsing idolatry in 2012 will be all the more reason to anticipate divine judgment in the USA...no matter who's elected...

[God expects the world to be the world...I think He expects true "God-fearers" to not be of that same cloth]

Priorities, Priorities, Priorities

The worse republican to ever run in more than 200 years would be 1,000 times better than Obama.

[Yeah...what a "legacy" you will leave the next generations...The Dems will continue to run candidates even to the left of Obama...Whatever's left of the tattered GoP Establishment will -- say 24 years from now -- run candidates to the left of Obama...and all your kids & grandkids will remember is, "Yeah, Oldtimer told us to vote for the (r) guy vs. the (d) guy 'cause they won't be 'as liberal.'"]

What a legacy...advocating that your kids & grandkids vote for candidates even to the left of Obama...just because they are supposedly "less liberal."

That’s exactly what the GOP expects out of you, but still they don’t appreciate you at all. Stay on the plantation, who cares. Your attitude is what got us to the place where we find ourselves now. How’s that workin’?

>>Well, I certainly understand your position and sentiments but if Obama wins a second term, future elections will,for certain, mean nothing because this republic will be finished, FOREVER.

Even if Romney wins, future elections will mean nothing because this republic will be finished. The sooner we get this over with, the sooner we can try again. The phoenix must burn before it can rise from the ashes.

Why should the moderates give the GOP to conservatives when conservatives prove once again that they don't have the numbers to nominate a conservative candidate?

What do you mean 3rd party?

I’d settle for a 2nd party.

Democrats and Republicans are all riding in the same limo.

If ya haven’t noticed this charade by now, ya never will.

Well, who's the one advocating that we vote for a govt socialist healthcare-run, pro-abortion, pro-liberal appointing judge candidate? [You can raise your hand now...and when Romney loses, we'll be able to trace the "well-intended" Vichy-like "antis"...and flesh them out for all to see...You know the supporters of the compromising Vichy govt were anti-Hitler & anti-Naziism ... just like you are anti-Obama...they just "settled" for a govt they thought would make it "easier" on them]

The founders of the GoP realized they didn't have enough backbone as is to jumpstart their fledgling party...hence they rolled in the Free Soil abolitionist party in 1854...and began with a TRUE backbone of taking on the "twin relics of slavery & polygamy" in 1856...

Today's GoP? No backbone. Compromisers everywhere. People willing to vote for the biggest assault on the womb possible...People like Romney who told Katie Couric in Dec. 2007 that 'twas "OK" for "parents" to give their offspring to "research."

You call yourself a "conservative?"

You're "with" Mitt? Hey, donate your own kids to "research" and then we'll see how "one" you are with Mitt!

>>So you’d rather return a true Communist to the White House. Dear, that’s not “principles”, that’s a tantrum.

Settle down Beavis. If America has a suicide wish, there’s not a lot that can be done to stop it. Sometimes the only way to win is not to play.
