You see, there are those who have already begun to argue that Romney, if he loses, will do so because of a lack of support. The idea is to shift blame to conservatives, Tea Party folk, or anybody else who will not step up and vocally support or at least vote for Romney. I reject that thesis as a scandalous lie. Don’t tell me Romney wants to win but doesn’t want to talk about Reverend Jeremiah Wright, or Bill Ayers, or the whole rogues’ gallery of philosophical villainy that accompanies Barack Obama. Then, after rejecting these obvious problems with Barack Obama, I’m to blame if Mitt Romney loses?

What is “MarkAmerica”?
If he can’t attract the voters then its his own fault and nobody else shoulders any blame. He is a bad candidate to begin with.
“If Mitt Romney loses, it will be because he failed. He failed to be a conservative. He failed to insist on talking about Barack Obama’s radical associations. He failed to rally the base of the Republican party. He failed to motivate conservatives. He failed. If you want to blame me for a Romney loss, have at it, but I won’t accept blame. Here we have a candidate who saw no problem in hammering his Republican opponents in dishonest ways, but who now shrinks from talking about the truth of Barack Obama, and some wish to blame me?
If you will not call a monster by name in public, why would you be surprised if others will not view him in that light? After all, we elect Presidents because we expect them to tell us the truth even when it’s unpleasant. If we know the truth about Obama, but Romney won’t say it, what could be the justification? At what point does somebody step up and ask Romney: “Why won’t you talk about Obama’s radical associations?” Why, after saying he cannot tell the superPACs that support him what to do, when it came to Newt Gingrich, is he now going out of his way to dissociate himself from any discussion of Obama on this subject by those superPACs? What he’s done is to “call off the dogs” on this, something he refused to do when it came to Gingrich just a few months ago, laughing it off as the nature of politics.”
That’t right. It’s all your fault and we haven’t even gotten through May yet!
He is a conservative blogger..check out his site.

I don’t like counterfeit conservatives, and in fact, it’s fair to say that in many respects, I dislike them even more than Obama, and it’s because they do more to undermine our nation than Obama ever will. How many times have we been undermined by Republicans who rush to surrender to the statists?
Gee..I am powerful:)
I dont know but I bet he has strong ties with Captain Obvious.

You know, that’s really a tremendous point.
They can blame me right alongside of you.
““THESE are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated. Britain, with an army to enforce her tyranny, has declared that she has a right (not only to TAX) but “to BIND us in ALL CASES WHATSOEVER” and if being bound in that manner, is not slavery, then is there not such a thing as slavery upon earth. Even the expression is impious; for so unlimited a power can belong only to God.”
Romney ran a scorched earth campaign against Newt...where is his “fight” when it comes to Obama?
I will not vote for Romney, and that’s Romney’s fault.
Period.
Romney caved to the liberals to win Mass..what is different now? he only runs the scorched earth campaigns against conservatives. But of course he can’t run on healthcare, liberal judges or his record as gov in Mass.
Romney is NO conservative.
Sounds like a repeat of McCain does it not?..... I can name that tune in one note!
I am not at all surprised Katie....we knew this was coming ....Both sides, which are truly the same side, are feeding the public a line of crap....and they're eating it up.... The public is convinced this is an election between the lesser of two evils.... and the GOP, the supporters, and the reluctant supporters, are pushing the ABO hard and hot. The Piped Pipers have their following now.
Of course I will not vote nor consent to Romney's nor Obama's platform...and comfortable doing so. The fight was in the Primary...we lost....but more than a conservative candidate ....we signed and sealed our nations demise by not supporting those remaining who are conservatives....too late now.
But I've sure enjoyed telling the GOP and NRC people why I'm not voing for Romney.....it is what it is and the GOP and the Romney supporters bare the blame for this trumped up election.
no it isn’t
every candidate goes to the center after winning the primary
caww, Amen! had a call from the Romney campaign and told them exactly what I thought and why I would have a problem with him being our nominee. The caller was extremely ignorant and could not defend Romney on a single issue. Now that is scary! the blind and uninformed voters are killing us. We know Romney’s record as govt doesn’t matter.
I sure couldn’t have said it better.
I supported Newt in the primaries but will vote for Romney on the basis of anyone but Obama. Does that make me bear the blame now?
People heard about Jeremiah Wright in 2008. Talking about him again in 2012 is not going to change many votes, but it will give the mainstream media a chance to cry "racist!"
If they can prove the story about the $150,000 bribe being offered in 2008 by the Obama camp to Wright, that might be worth publicizing, but otherwise focus on things Obama has done since being elected, including the people he has appointed (Van Jones, Eric Holder, Katherine Sebelius, etc.).
Obama went to Wright's church because he had to pretend to be a Christian to be accepted as a community organizer. He already had his anti-American and anti-white attitudes...he didn't learn them from Wright.
Trying to make Wright a big issue in 2012 doesn't sound like a sound strategy.
