WTF? I don’t like Romney at all, but there is no way in hell I oppose him if he becomes the nominee. That is suicide! We cannot survive 4 more years of Obama, but that is what what we will get if we keep pushing crap like this.
Obama must be defeated at all costs.

Since there is very little difference between Obama and Romney, you have to factor into the equation the fact that if Romney is elected, the RINO / dem lite positions that he will push will cause a lot of infighting with the GOP. Conservatives will not want to support dem lite positions but Romney will use the bully pulpit to push his agenda.

Better to have Obama that can be opposed in both the House and the Senate on principled issues than to have Romney who really can't be opposed because he will be the de facto party leader. Better the enemy without than the one within.

Also, for the long term GOP direction, the party bosses need to learn that they cant win elections with a RINO. You simply MUST have the support of your base to win elections.

"That is suicide!"

But of course! That has long been the plan of Kamikaze Conservatives on this forum. They are more interested in litmus tests and making statements, than winning elections. Somehow they've never learned that elections must be won before policy can be implemented or changed.

Barry Goldwater suffered the same consequences. He gave great speeches but never was able to implement policy.

Compare that with Ronald Reagan. Dutch knew which battles were winnable and engaged in the art of compromise to gain all that was gainable. He didn't waste time and political capital on the side shows.

Absolutely agree. Anyone, including Romney, is better than Obama!!!

This place is becoming like the DU. Why would we not get behind Romney. I can only think that most of these posters are frauds and libs.
