Someone needs to inform the National Review that they don’t get to vote.

ABM, but if Perry has a shot and continues to look sober, I'd go with him over Newt.

But again, ABM. I plan to check the latest polls and vote ABM.

Either NRO’s for Romney or Obama. Who else?

America’s economy and security have become one big junkyard. It will take a “junkyard dawg” to clear the place up. I’ll give Newt a 4 year shot at it. He knows his way around the yard and is not afraid to bite. He knows he has only one shot left to go down in history as the President who saved America from the Marxists/Socialists/Communists. Its Newt’s time.

Perhaps as the media outlets, both right and left destroy the GOP people, the voters should reject any media analysis and go with their hearts as well as with their heads. I stick with Newt, but unlike the Paulbots, will support the Ricks, Mitt if they win.

NRO goes with the Denny Hastert Wing of the GOP.

By the way, failed Speaker Hastert DID endorse Romney. Is anyone surprised? Willard seems to make a big deal about the fact that he has never once in his life rocked the boat. Did you ever notice he even walks like he's afraid he'll step on somebody's toes?

Exactly the kind of man the Hasterites prefer(or preferred).

With Obama: Run over the cliff.
With Romney: Drift over the cliff. Better a Newt than a Noodler.

Which is odd because of all the people running Mitt is the least likely to have subscribed to National Review, at least when Buckley was running it. Alas, I’m getting old and nostalgic for the days when there were a myriad of decent alternatives. Mitt has to find himself some better handlers I think.

...about the only real alternative we have left is at the convention. To refuse what has been offered us, and nominate the most acceptable conservative we can.

This means Sarah Palin.

You're absolutely correct, Yef.

For what it's worth, I know what she said, and that she's the proverbial 'reluctant candidate', but by God, she's the best we have, and if there was ever a time America needed its very best in the Oval Office, this is it.

Like Ike before her, it may take a lot of convincing to get her to do what she must for her country, but I'm ready to make that effort.

Paul is an anti-semitic, anti-defense, isolationist libertarian with no plan to implement his ideas...as he himself established in the Huckabee forum.

No way now that I know of the anti-semitic garbage that I’m supporting Paul.

No Paul and No Romney. Ever.

Newt is one of them...you just refuse to see just how socialist/progressive Newt really is and what he really believes in.

Health mandate, cap & trade and other climate legislation, etc...

He is not a conservative and he isn’t on our side!

That’s sweet music...the moment I saw Sarah Palin when McCain announced her...I knew she was it.

I would love to see the real conservatives like Palin, Bachmann, Santorum and even some of Ron Paul get together and create a new conservative contract for America and go for it!!!

NRO has zero credibility on the issue.
They’ve been I the tank for Romney for 4 years.

I actually cancelled my subscription when they endorsed the uber-disgusting rino Romney.

Again I will go third party before voting for that piece of shit.

Happy hanukkah everyone!

How come there is no proof of these allegations?

Oh, you mean like a signed and notarized confession filed with the Travis County Clerk of Court's Office?

Sure. Right.

Those visas are issued by the Federal Gov.

Gingrich is too Conservative for NRO, just like Perry and Bachmann.

Mitt has been their guy for half a decade.

Rick Perry wants to give visas to illegal immigrants (criminals to you and me) so they can cross our border freely. He said so just last month:

Perry suggests US visa program to let illegal immigrants come and go freely

It's time to primary National RINO. It's gone downhill since John O'Sullivan was forced out as editor-in-chief. And lest we forget, it endorsed Romney in 2008.
