Unlike Romney's "National Council for a New America," Free Republic is a conservative site!
The left will not buy Romney's GOP rebranding. They demand total capitulation!

"Free Republic is the premier online gathering place for independent, grass-roots conservatism on the web. We're working to roll back decades of governmental largesse, to root out political fraud and corruption, and to champion causes which further conservatism in America."
~Jim Robinson
Many of those who are the most vociferous Palin detractors were and continue to be Romney supporters.
