Could be be; but Obama has a lot of baggage now even to the point of being criminally charged.

Romney won't win, and even if by some strange twist of fate he did, he would destroy the GOP nationally as an effective home of conservatives.

That has been the objective of the Romney family since father George fought the Goldwater and Reagan Revolutions.

The country is between a rock and a hard place if Romney faces Obama in the general election. What I see is the choice between A) Four more years of Obama but with a conservative movement still alive in the one of the two viable parties or B) Romney who will adopt 90% of Obama's agenda but kills the conservative movement in the Republican Party. Both options are equally distasteful to me which is why I will not vote for President in the general election if that match-up occurs.

Same here! I just hope that seeing Obama has made Romney more conservative.

There is a difference, if Romney gets elected then assasinated for being a socialist and liar or whatever stupid reason in some pea brains head, no one will cry racism....

Sorry, but History does not support you in your hopeful conclusion.

You're right and in fact, the drama of a conservative party ever leaning left was played out in Canada in the 1980s and 1990s. In those days Canada had the PC "Progressive Conservative" party which gradually became as left-wing as the liberal party. It came to a conclusion when Kim Campbell (Progressive Conservative) became prime minister. She was a moonbat who spent time in the Soviet Union and whose doctorate degree was in Soviet government. Canadian conservatives finally rebelled against the PC and utterly decimated them in the elections. The remnants of the party survived by merging with grass-roots conservative parties like Reform. Canada has had a conservative government for a while now.

But I think it is a rule that conservative parties lose their focus and become liberal whenever they think they can gain votes. Political parties are willing to sacrifice their principles to be elected, even if it means turning themselves into the enemy. The same fate again awaits Canada's present-day conservatives. They may sound conservative compared to communists, but then again anything does.

Do Republicans want to end up like the canadian PC? Would it be good for the cause of conservatism in the US? I'm not sure, but it was probably a good thing that the PCs were destroyed in Canada. Conservatives in Canada had slightly more serious parties and candidates to represent them after that meltdown.

I left out the totally embarrassing and, more importantly, dangerous Obama foreign policy.

I would need a book to detail that for you.

I don't disagree on this issue.

You're more full of stuffing than a Christmas turkey.

Better?

Kagan and Sotomayer.

Sorry, but you don't even know your candidates record making a laughable comparison like that.

Romney's record on nominating candidates include 9 out of 36 republicans, the rest were either declared Democrats or voted Democrat according to voting records.

Legal analysts say candidate Romney is different from Gov. Romney.

Liberty Counsel Action Vice President Matt Barber said Romney’s appointments were constitutional “living document” poster children.

“Many of Romney’s appointments were not only liberal, not only Democrats, but were radical counter-constitutionalists. How on earth can we expect that, as president, he would be any different?” Barber asked rhetorically.

“Actions speak louder than words, and Mitt Romney’s actions as governor scream from the rooftops that he cannot be trusted with this most important of presidential responsibilities.”

Barber cites two specific examples of Romney’s radical appointments.

“As governor of Massachusetts, Mitt Romney not only failed in this regard, he appointed a number of very liberal, if not radical, ‘living, breathing’-minded judges to the bench,” Barber said.

“Two that come to mind were extreme homosexualists Marianne C. Hinkle and Stephen Abany,” he said. “They both had a long history of pro-gay activism, yet Romney didn’t hesitate to put them on the bench.”

“These are people who outrageously believe the postmodern notion that newfangled ‘gay rights’ trump our constitutionally guaranteed First Amendment rights,” he said.

Baldwin agreed, citing Romney’s statements about the two requirements he actually used when selecting judges.

“Romney did focus on two criteria: their legal experience and whether they would be tough on crime. In other words, the nominee could be a gay activist or a pro-big government, pro-quota, pro-gun control Democrat Party hack who detests every judicial principle treasured by our founding fathers,” Baldwin said. “But if he happens to be tough on crime and have prosecutorial experience, he gets past the Romney filter. Many of Romney’s nominees fit that description.”

Baldwin added that Romney did have some ideological criteria for many of his nominees:

“It was criteria commonly used by the left. For starters, his nominees were mostly pro-abortion. Indeed, while campaigning for governor in 2002, Romney told the National Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL) that his judicial nominees would more likely protect abortion rights than would those of a Democrat Governor, according to notes from a person attending this meeting.”

Coal power plants crippled, new ones stopped.

New oil drilling stopped dead in its tracks.

Tens of millions wasted on green energy.

An energy secretary that wants, and will get, gas prices the same as Europe.

And on the environment you think the Governor(Romney) that instituted and implemented one of the first Cap and Trade systems in the nation and whose far-left environment nominations are now part of the Obama administration and that believes in man-made global warming would be better?

Illegal immigrants are being released unless they are felons, giving them de facto amnesty.

Border enforcement has been cut, and no new fencing or anything else has been proposed.

And you think that a candidate like Romney who is on record as supporting an amnesty for illegals and supporting GWB's push for legalization of illegals is going to make a difference on this issue?

[SoConPubbie]

Don't ask, don't tell has been repealed.

The DOJ won't defend the DOMA in court anymore.

And your candidate, Mitt Romney agrees with Obama on this issue as well and has stated he will not put it back into place, furthermore, he IS the Father of Gay Marriage in America because he personally instituted it first in MA.

[SoConPubbie]

Nearly a trillion dollars wasted on Obama's stimulus.

Five trillion dollars of debt in 3.5 years, with trillion plus deficits for the next four years at least.

And Mitt Romney supported TARP and the Auto Bailouts.

So who's more full of stuffing than a Christmas turkey?

You sure have a funny idea of what "getting better" means.

You're candidate, Mitt Romney, as his record shows, will provide no relief for most of the issue you spouted off about.

While you might be right about the difference in responses, such scenarios should not even be comtemplated.
