Only those that don’t believe Obama has made any liberal/socialists gains , or have issue with those gains, oppose Romney.

Reagan was a RINO by Freeper standards and would be banned from posting here.

He was the best president we have had, but far from perfect.

Reagan was not a RINO by the same standards I judge Romney. Reagan compromised his position here and there. Romney compromised himself and in many cases went full tilt for the other side. He was going to out-Kennedy Kennedy on abortion - remember?

No, Reagan was not a RINO by Freeper standards ~ for one he never ran for nor held public office as a Democrat, nor did he as a Republican office holder make donations to Democrats, nor did he campaign for Democrats.

If you stick to my definition you'll find all the RINOs you need.

FOR INSTANCE, of the 16 different candidates who registered with the RNC To run this year, only 3 of them were LIfelong Republican Conservatives ~ which isn't actually required of you to be a non-RINO, but it's really something to think about.

Remember our budding Leftwing Pro-Romney chorus telling us the Conservatives were dividing the vote? Well, then, what about the 13 RINOs? Seems to me they did a pretty good job at it and got one of their own set up to prevail at the convention.

The RINOs, by the narrowest of definitions ~ not even accounting for ideology ~ now own the GOP-e. It's their party, not ours.

BS. Some of us are unable, as Christians, to consent to give power to self-made deities. It puts us in disobedience to Christ. There is only one God, and he will not give his glory to another.

As for Reagan getting banned on FR, good luck with that fantasy. He’d be fine here,except he’d probably have the Romney surrender squad constantly harassing him for sticking to his principles.

It’s a joke to compare Reagan to Mitt Romney. Mittens is on board with virtually every one of the left’s pet projects, but you’re asking me to believe that somehow he is comparable to Reagan and alleging that we are being “perfectionists.”

There will be no substantial change in policy between Mittens and Obozo. And unlike with Obozo, Mittens will have his 4 years, plus another 4 against whatever Commie democrat the left puts forward. And since there will be no difference, Romney’s inevitable failures will likely lead to 4 years of a Dem president.

So you’re voting for possibly 12 or more years of leftist rule in favor of insignificant short term satisfaction of removing one man... meanwhile the ideology behind him, which infects both parties, goes forward undefeated.

Assuming of course there isn’t a serious financial collapse which results in chaos and war before Romney even gets the chance to put on the crown.
