If Romney wins, it won’t matter, and we’ll get all the blame. Obamacare will be cemented in. He’ll see to it.

It’s better that Obama overreach (he’s doing that) if we can’t get a conservative.

I think its been Obama’s agenda all along to take the US out of power. Not sure why, but I think he thinks we’ve been a colonial power, like the UK, for too long, and it wasn’t ‘just’.

Right or wrong, eligible or not, he’s the President. I think he thinks he’ll win, and he might through outright fraud. I happen to think that’s what almost came to a head in 2000 with Gore v. Bush. They likely wanted to blow the lid off of the fraud, but both sides realize that everyone is doing it. The only real difference may be extent.

Again, I think our current system of government is unworkable. If we had a coalition style gov’t like the Israelis. You start straying off the reservation, you call an election and you start over. There’s an automtic incentive to make sure the trains run on time, taxes stay low, jobs stay up, etc.

Problem is I dont’ trust the current crew to rewrite the Constitution. When the people started electing Senators, the end was near. Used to be that state legislators (governors, essentially) elected their Senators. It meant that the Senators could oppose some of the egregious stuff coming from the House without losing their jobs.

Romney’s the presumptive nominee at this point. I think both Newt and Santorum are patriots for trying to keep it from coming to that. They may yet still succeed.

I disagree. I believe Romney will undo Obamacare.
He has stated that healthcare laws should be a state matter and not Federal.
We will have to live with whatever the Supremes decide on that.

Medicare is ruined and bankrupt already. It has to be cut back. The younger ones need to have something to hang onto to make them keep working and paying for the older generation.
I like Ryan and think he is a deep thinker when it comes to these things. I hope he is not asked to run as VP for anyone. He is needed where he is. I think he whould be the next Speaker.

We need Obama out of the WH! He has already done enough damage that shows what socialism is doing to this country.

I would rather not have the choices we have this year but somehow, the good ones don’t want the pure hell of running. Look what they did to Palin?

I like some of the new crop, West, Rubio, Jindl, and a few others.
We need to still have a country for them to save. For that reason, I am being more involved in this campaign than I had planned. I have some health issues (2 surgeries since July) and need to recuperate fully before stepping out.

Would love to join the Tea Party and take a trip to DC and voice my opinion there..... but maybe another time.
My best to you and please realize that some of us still have hope and would like your help even it means electing another Rino.

But Romney publicly urged Obama in 2009 to make the individual mandate part of the national plan in a USA Today OpEd piece.
