Conservatives WANTED to believe in Fred.
We WANTED to believe he would be able to energize and solidify the Republican base, and lead us into a new era of strength, prosperity and conservative dominance.
But it’s more than obvious that Fred is past his prime. He is uninspiring and too lethargic to get Republicans excited. (sorry for the crudeness).
Just like Bob Dole, Fred is a great conservative but a lousy politician and campaigner. Which is VERY important in winning the general election.
More importantly, Fred is ALSO part of that Washington DC insider good ol’ boy network which has caused so many problems for the GOP and America.
Same with McCain.
Only Huckabee and Romney are ‘outsiders’ and would thus bring in some fresh leadership ideas.
Huckabee scares me and others to Kingdom come, and would destroy the GOP for decades.
Which is why so many of us are excited about Mitt Romney, his fresh face... his fresh approach to conservative ideas and promotion.
The majority of the American people are not capable of going beyond what the media tells them. The MSM as well as much of the blogs, said Fred was a joke before he even got in. Brit Hume poo pooed Fred before he got in, Charles Croutheimer(sp) said there was “no there there” with Fred on a number of occasions, the American people are not very bright!
What happened to the Republicans that cost us the senate in 2006 because they where so upset about immigration? Have they now decided McCain is ok? It would seem so! You see they are not very bright either!
Of the top three candidates now, only ONE is okay with Rush. Limbaugh has stated that McCain or the Huckster would be disasters for the Republicans.
Again, it is pretty easy to toss out conservative talk....but if Fred actually endorses that RINO McKennedy, nothing he said means alot.
It means he is just another lying politician.
If Romney gets the nomination, I’ll probably hold my nose and vote for him in the general, but please, please don’t insult our intelligence by trying to sell the man as something authentic, fresh or exciting.
He is none of these things and he’s no conservative, either.
The ONLY thing Romney has going for himself is that he’s not Hillary.
