On Saturday, the Constitution Party nominated Virgil Goode, a former U.S. House member from Virginia, as its presidential candidate. He won the nomination on the first ballot with 203 out of 403 delegates. He defeated Darrell Castle of Tennessee, national vice chairman of the Constitution Party; Susan Ducey, a constitutional activist from Kansas; Laurie Roth, of Washington, a columnist and talk show host; and Robby Carr Wells of North Carolina, a former NCAA Division I football coach at Savannah State University. The final vote total was Goode 203, Castle 120, Wells 58, Ducey 15, Roth 6. Jim Clymer, the national chairman of the Constitution Party, was selected as the vice-presidential nominee.

Tell me in November, newb. Romney hasn't locked up enough uncontested delegates to assure the convention yet.

I saw Romney’s speech last night. He can and will win.

Good luck with that line of BS!

[SoldierDad]

Sorry, but a vote for any candidate who has ZERO chance to win the General Election IS a vote for a liberal - that being Obozo (who is also a socialist and intentionally out to bring down the U.S. in flames). The sheer stupidity of the ideology that voting for some other candidate who has the same chance as a snowball in hell is somehow voting against a liberal is mind boggling.

[JRandomFreeper]

Ain't buying it, and I won't vote for Romney. Ever. I've been saying it since Romney threw his hat in.

A vote for a conservative (not Romney) is NOT going to add a single vote to Obama's total.

Maybe you should lean on the GOP to put up conservatives and tell them to quit playing dirty tricks and slamming conservatives(Rove in particular), because Dole, McCain, and Romney will make a trifecta for the GOP.

Funny freepers are rallying around Romney all of sudden. I get it. Obama sucks balls. Why didn’t goode ask for money earlier? I, and others stand with all his positions.. I give up...

[goseminoles]

Two negatives don’t equal a positive in this case. Two negatives equals a turd. Were gonna smell shit either way. I want a candidate and im sick and tired of this..

[JRandomFreeper]

Just live a good conservative life as a free man, ignore the government, and move forward. They can kill you, but they can't eat you.

Soylent Green. it's people!

LOL

[TheBattman]

Voting for liberals will get you liberals in office.

[aruanan]

Are you calling anyone that won't vote for Romney an idiot?

A voter, knowing the history of the last four years under Obama, who won't effectively vote against Obama, if for no other reason than to disrupt what Obama has already set into motion, is stating both that the consequences of Obama's reelection are preferable to his not being reelected and that the voter's actions in making that outcome possible constitute a moral good that is preferable to preventing that outcome.

Johnny,

That’s the way im leaning. Ill vote for Goode, move on with my life, and defend the ones I love. No getting worked up over it. The pendulum will swing whenever the populace gets pissed. Funny how my Bp went down after the pic of z’s. Head. I just laughed and said there is no way this is going to trial.....

[SoldierDad]

Studid is as stupid does. Votes which go away from a viable candidate are votes which help Obozo to win another term. It's shameful that this fact seems difficult to understand. If Obozo wins because enough people didn't get their perfect candidate, then you get what you asked for.

I'm suppose to "lean" on the GOP? Where exactly is this magical power you seem to believe I possess? I'd really like to know, because then perhaps I could make more of a difference.

Since I'm in CA, and our primary hasn't happened yet, once more I'm looking at being totally irrelevant in the primary. I'll cast my vote for the candidate of my choice, despite the fact he probably won't be running before our primary. Once the nominee is selected, I will vote for the nominee. If that bothers some people here - oh, well. I WILL NOT vote for Obozo by voting third party or write in for someone who either isn't running or cannot win. For those who are unable to understand this, that's their problem. The "If I wanted America to Fail" youtube video is enough to convince me that Obozo must go.

[SoldierDad]

voting in such a way that reelects Obozo just destroys America.

[Kickass Conservative]

Absolutely, but you will be pinged until the cows come home, and not in a good way. Been there, done that.

I'm in CA too. Very sad that Newt won't be in it by the time we get to Vote in June.

[cableguymn]

You and all the other mitt supporters could vote for Goode and beat both the socialists.

Since you won’t. Enjoy Obama’s second term.

[presently no screen name]

Wrong! Newt is conservative and I voted for him yesterday. If you haven’t been $upporting Newt all along, you aren’t serious about our country, IMO. America’s been used and abused by those who took it for granted - as if it will always be there.

ONLY NEWT has the proven skills and plans in place to start on day one to undo some of the damage to America. But due to lack of $upport and votes - it’s clear all the hype people want America to be restored - it’s proven bogus. So I’m not interested in what you are pushing.

[goseminoles]

Maybe we need 4 more years of this ass in office to wake people up. Unfortunately, people are too dumb.. I wish I had a secret u-obummer ring..

[cableguymn]

I hear ya!

Love the tag line.. Just listened to Toby Mac’s “Lose my soul” based on the same verse.
