Winning wars isn’t just all glory.
Sometimes the commanders are FUBAR and its a matter of the enlisted types to make progress in matters of inches in horrible conditions.

We all know that even if Romney wins there will be no parade for the conservative battle.

It will be a long slog.
I plan on electing some good enlisted men down ballot.

Keep up the good work. Michelle and I are proud of your work on our behalf. Like good ole Eric H says, four more years. Again, we thank you for your efforts, much appreciated. Our good friend Rev Al sends his regards, resist we much.

Sincerely
Barack Hussein Obama

Romney does even more damage than electing Obama, because he will take the whole conservative movement down the drain with him. Obama can't do that.

John Boehner's doing a pretty good job at that now.

If you think he has been bad so far, just wait till he is a lame duck. He will go scorched earth on us. He wont even pretend to get along.

Good. Let him go 'scorched earth' on us. Maybe then, patriotic conservatives and other Americans will find their spines and start fighting back for real.

Elect the stealth liberal Romney, and no such thing will happen, though he'll be pushing nearly the same agenda.

You’re a regular here. Surely, you’ve read hundreds of well-reasoned posts that lay out the case against voting for Romney.

Obviously, none of that reasoning has swayed you. Why? Please lay out a reasoned case FOR Romney.

Thanks Windflier.
When you know you are standing on the shoulders of our forefathers and being a warrior for truth at the very depths of the soul in all that you do and say, it is a fight worth fighting.

That doesn’t minimize the backlash, however, from those who don’t get it. And they don’t. ...get it.

I wouldn’t be able to live with myself to know I voted for a nominee who has no core, no message, no scruples and no honor...a man who has not one quality that I believe to be good for our country or admirable as a man.

When I exercise the sacred right to vote, I stand before God, my country and my family. I will not disgrace them or myself by compromising the Conservative principles which guide my life.

I like what you said about our ancestors and forefathers.
Thanks for giving me hope that there are some stalwart warriors left here on Free Republic.

Take a look around, 57% of the country are hopeless idiots glued to their Iphone collecting gubmint freebees.

We're all that's left and giving a political opus in the jungle to the "Whiner Rouge" just get's us a bullet in the head doesn't leave us to fight another day.

Look.
I am not for Romney.
I just think we have a better shot at controlling him than Obama.

Really? I thought after how smashing the tea party victories were in 2010, we’d have the nominee THIS TIME.

And I will bet my freaking house if I am protesting Romney in four years, others here will be arguing with me to stop protesting him.

Mark Levin is now talking with a worried sounding voice about how Romney will have to move farther right and act and talk more conservatively..ie he will need to come around to our way of thinking.

When has your attempt to change another person ever been successful?
Sitting around and wondering whether or not Romney is going to “come over’ to our side just might be an exercise in futility, Great One. And it’s not the way I want to live my life.

We were here first and our principles aren’t for sale or trade.

Romney’s writers borrowed from Reagan’s old speeches to hone that speech last night. Do you think he really believes what he said? Or is he just attempting to pander to us Conservatives until we fall into line? Kinda like Bam telling the students that he and his minions will find a way to forgive their loans.

It’s all a lie.
And when are the fawning Freepers who think that Mitt Romney will save our Republic by ridding our country of the evil Obama going to come back down to earth?

The GOP-E is doing a bang up job of trying to convince us that as of Nov. 6, a new Messiah will replace the old one and fix all that ails our country.

Bishop Willard?
You have it right, sand88.

This fight for the soul of America is ours to win or lose.
We the People are in charge of our destiny.
We can give up now and take our spoon fed medicine and do as we are told...
or we can unanimously say NO ROMNEY/NO WAY!!!

And many thanks to the RNC who dissed us after the 2010 victories..and are now trying to silence us and send us to the back of(or under) the bus where they think we belong.

They’ll not receive one plug nickel from this Conservative again.

Yes, and a mere 3% of American patriots actually stood and fired in anger at the British in the American Revolution.

I think 43% are even better odds, don't you?

There will be no way in Hell that I or anyone in my family is going to sit home or worst yet, vote the 3rd party ruse and play a part in destruction and ruin of this great nation by handing over the White House to that marxist anti-American devil obambam. NEVER EVER EVER. I will vote REPUBLICAN and REPUBLICAN ONLY to get the devil out of the White House.

Thank God people like you are a minuscule inconsequential number and the vast majority of us understand enough to play our part to SAVE OUR COUNTRY from being devoured by devils.

Hear, hear. Comes a point where there's no room left to back up. Now is that point for me.

Support Mitt Romney so that he can help put government mandated software on all new computers to control porn and other content that you see on the internet.

Here is the proof in his own words.

Look. I am not for Romney. I just think we have a better shot at controlling him than Obama.

How are we going to control him when he's the team captain?

If you want a mutiny (and you surely had better want one), you stand a far greater chance of one getting started under a captain that the whole crew hates with a passion, than you do with one who half the crew is lamely trusting to do the right thing.

Republicans will probably become the majority in both the House and Senate this year. They will lock arms against an avowed enemy (Obama), but they will play nice with someone who they view as the leader of their own party.

Obama and Romney have near-identical records in office. There's hardly a dime's worth of difference between them. If Romney is elected, we stand a far greater chance that Obama's Socialist agenda will go forward, than if The Great Evil himself is in office still pushing it against the opposition party in Congress.

This is the fundamental dynamic at work here. It's not pretty to look at, but if you have any intention of winning in the long term, you have to face that, and strategize accordingly.

I’m betting that he is shit skeered of mutiny.

Obama desires it.

Ah...so you're one of those who's had their core principles scared right out of them. I'll bet you would have sided with the Loyalists in 1776, too.

If you're too scared to fight back, so be it, but don't come here preaching to good conservative patriots with a spine still left in their bodies, that they must follow Obama's comrade in arms.

I won't follow evil under any banner.

We've gotta fight back, friend. We're being sold a pig in a poke. We're being betrayed right in front of our eyes, and the establishment has the utter gall to ask us to choose which color chains we want around our necks.

"Red chains or Blue?
Which suits you?"

They can kiss my red white and blue ass! I'll never vote for treason and enslavement of any color!
