sorry for the delay.

I am not enthralled with Romney either, but he is going to be the candidate. He is better than Obama.We are not marrying the guy, just picking him as the best candidate running. I do not think it advisable to not vote in protest, or to vote for a third party. That would ensure a Obama victory.

We pick our battles. We may have lost in the presidential primaries, but the war continues. We can continue the good fight by electing as many principled conservatives as possible. It kind of ‘fills the bench’ and will give our heirs some experienced politicians who have conservative values.

FRiend, the fight is against GOVERNMENTAL CONTROL
of FREEDOM and MEDICINE and FAMILIES.

So explain why you defend the AUTHOR of gay marriage
pushed through by HIS WHIM and not by a vote,
who incidentally is also the AUTHOR
of DEATH PANELS. He also supports
Sharia, TARP, TAXES, and the 911 Victory Mosque.

So why don’t you defend Mr. RomneyCARE on this, here, now.

Start with the 911 Victory Mosque and Death Panels,
if you will.

After taking a look at the blue blood RNC members and their greedy pulled back wives up close at their "winter meeting" at the Hyatt, I came to the realization that these disgusting degenerates are all about controlling the cash extorted from taxpayers by the IRS, and are no different than the communists at the DNC.

They just spread it around to different folks.

Isn't this;

a bit much? Why evoke such imagery? We certainly cannot invoke the Four Horsemen [of the Apocalypse] nor should we aspire to do so.

You say; "See the eternal, in light of the temporal"(?)

Explain that. Doing so might help clarify the mind.

How about us looking not towards the temporal for our salvation, achievable by rage and demand, but instead have us look to the eternal in the first place, and see how He may want us to conduct ourselves?

Falling on our own faces before a Holy and mighty God is much more called for, rather than go running around on our own get-go, claiming it is for Him.

He did not come to set up an earthly kingdom for the children of Israel, or He could have done that when he was physically present.

Not by power, not by might [earthy power and might] but by my Spirit says the Lord.

I think it would be just fine if the conservatives just skipped the convention. The GOP-E is gonna do what they are going to do. If the conservatives are there is gives a false impression that conservatives actually condone what is going on there. Republican party ? Pish.. I am done with that bunch of constipated self important ninnies

My FRiend,

I am not enthralled with Romney, but he IS going to be the candidate.

He has been a politician, and horse trader, and all the other words that we know connote somethig this side of harlot. Notwithstanding, he is better than Obama.

We are not marrying the guy, just picking him as the best candidate in this election. I do not think it advisable to not vote in protest, or to vote for a third party. That would ensure a Obama victory.

We know we must pick our battles. We may have lost in the presidential primaries, but the war to protect the Constitution continues. We can continue the good fight by electing as many principled conservatives as possible. It ‘fills the bench’ and will give our heirs some experienced politicians who have conservative values.

The immediate battle is against Obama and his philosophy. We share the realization that he, and his philosophy, are evil. We can beat them through prayer and by supporting the republican nominee - as well as the local Constitutional Conservative candidates.

I am also tired of “half-fast” republican candidates like McCain, Dole, Bushes and any other *******s whose “turn” it was.

I think we must fight to win the immediate battle before us and trust in Divine Providence to help us to win the next battle and the war.

We can only see and fight the battle before us. This battle is against the communist, 0bamma. it is only one battle in the long war against evil.

We, however, have the secret weapon...Faith.

More politics of the Rockefeller Fordites controlling the Republican party. They think Conservatives should vote for them and always keep quiet. GW Bush basically did the same thing as well as Bob Dole Says. Both shunned conservatives.

Bush was lucky that Gore was Clinton scandal tainted otherwise Bush would have lost by a landslide. The quickest way for any Republican to loose or nearly loose an election is to shun the grassroots conservatives both in the party and Independents.

The Republican Establishment - who adhere to moral relativism and moderate fiscal policies - are the reason we as a nation are where we are today (in ruins socially/fiscally). Their rubber spine has caved on almost every delusion, falsehood and lawless agenda that the Left has put forth. They have been a door mat for the Red Democratic party of today and have been a fifth column against TRUE conservatism in the Republican Party itself.

Exactly.

Yogi said “It ain’t over ‘till it’s over.” If Team Romney is intent on removing conservatives and the TEA Party from his campaign, then conservative delegates should refuse to cast votes at the convention for Romney.

If the delegates are really delegates,(and the RNC attorney in ‘08 said they were), then they have free will and are not bound by state GOP rules. If they are truly bound, then the convention is only a rubber stamp and would be better handled by a computer. No conservative delegate can be bound to vote against himself.

All of the recent anti-Palin media is meant to convince Republicans that she is unsuitable to be President or VP. The left is still scared to death of Gov. Palin as is the GOPe. Her election would end their crony capitalism and would end the rule of the ruling class.

58,800 pages of Alaska emails prove the qualifications of Sarah Palin. The left has had over a year to peruse them and find anything to back up their crazy rumors. They recruited public volunteers in the largest witch hunt ever engaged in to dig through her correspondence. The result was the best vetted politician in history, one that can be nominated with confidence in who she is and what she believes, and how she has stayed true to her beliefs while in public office. We have no such confidence in Mitt Romney.
