An Obama win will give Conservatives 32 yrs of future presidents after 4 yrs...Who said Rome was built in a day???
The chances of 0bama winning AND Republicans keeping House and taking Senate are very, very slim. That is the worst.
Since that is the worst I will vote to combine Romney AND Republican House and Senate.
It is absolutely naive to think that 0bama will win but the Republicans will keep either of the two chambers.
I will not condemn my children and grandchildren to that if I can help it.
Either way we get a liberal in the White House.
Does anyone really believe that Romney will govern under a conservative banner?
Under a GOP banner? Yes.
But under a conservative banner? No.
GOP does not equal conservative anymore.
It’s my impression that you vote republican this time around, but immediately begin the 3rd party option to be viable for 2016. It is now or never. Just like the republicans booted out the whigs in about a 6 year run up fo ever-increasing wins, the tea party should organize in each state and we should encourage candidates to run for president. Every cycle, we hear it cannot be done, but if we pick up even more wins this time around, we need to go for it. As for the Constitution party, we need a viable candidate. I’m not sure you could call Virgil Goode that. I’ve read some things that seem downright weird. By viable, I mean electable, not somebody who spouts a barrage of stuff but sounds incoherent at times.

At some point, I think the establishment Democrats and Republicans will merge into one middle-of-the-road party that appeals to the mushy middle, the Democrat extremists will go Green, and the rest of us will end up in some Constitutionalist party.
However, this is not going to happen in one election cycle. Conservative candidates who hold no fealty to the Republican Party need to be elected starting at the local level. Once established there, then at the state level. Finally, start making inroads into the federal level. Only after several successful election cycles with increasing gains at the federal level would we have a hope of fielding a successful presidential candidate.
But that’s a long time away. Who are we supporting locally to start this process?
Nice to see some people can still see the forest for the trees.
I disagree about Romney. He will set the conservative movement back significantly.
If you thought the GOP-E was bad now, wait until it is stacked with Romneybots.
Of course if you are a fan of Romney’s liberal agenda or the leadership style of McCain, Boehner, and McConnell....maybe a Romney dominated RNC is what you want.
If Romney wins, it doesn’t matter who controls the Congress. Socialism will progress, and fast. Romney will have no opposition from Republicans and Democrats will only oppose to push him even further to the left. And he will acquiesce
