Theyre counting on it being a non-issue since Romney got the popular vote but are they going to just change the rules in the general too?
You may be on to something, Saul Anuzis is another RINO who is pimping the national popular vote.

I’m not sure of the timeline but Washington state changed theirs from a primary to a caucus.
Personally, I think they should all be proprtional and we should have 5, 10 state primary dates with 10 regionally diverse states taking part in each one.

Are you serious ? telling someone that they are acting like a child just for saying that people need to put actions and meaning behind their words instead of empty rhetoric ?
We heard for months from the Newt supporters " Anyone but Romney " .. but, yet, when the true test came in Michigan, the Newt supporters handed the win over to Romney.
Yes, I am serious, and quit posting like your hairs on fire.
That's what I mean by childish.
Furthermore, that's quite a stretch of logic declaring definitively that:
"but, yet, when the true test came in Michigan, the Newt supporters handed the win over to Romney. "
It could just be that many Newt supporters did vote for Santorum but Rick just wasn't liked as much as you believe he is.

Romney is the dirtiest politician I have ever witnessed.
He makes me sick, and will never get my vote.
To: cripplecreek
yep the list just keeps growing, I have never seen anything like it in my entire life.
Romney is rotten to the core.

Unfortunately the party seems to have his back.

Romney actually does a pretty good job of hiding his true nature when he isn’t in your state. I really didn’t see the utter filth until it came to Michigan. Last time around I just didn’t care because it was between Romney and McCain.
In the case of Santorum calling for democrats to cross over and vote for him, he just beat Romney at his own game. The GOP leadership in Michigan kept the primary open while we were screaming to close it. Santorum made Robocalls to and invited democrats to vote for him and Romney had people going door to do doing the exact same thing.
The most disgusting thing was when our governor Rick Snyder complained of the dirty tricks of Santorum. Ask any Michigan Freeper how Snyder won and they’ll tell you that it was crossover votes. To make matters worse, despite the “dirty tricks” Snyder still says he’ll work to keep the primaries open.

Oh, now THAT is just downright FREAKY!!!!!! GOOD CATCH!! Send that to Limbaugh, Levin, Savage, the usual suspects. (Although Savage is in the tank for Romney and hates Rick’s guts)....

I am a Newt supporter, and I think Santorum has been cheated. Just as Newt and Santorum have both been cheated out of their Florida delegates.

So glad I’ve been ignoring their phone calls. IF they ever call me again I’m going to give them an earful.
To: ansel12
This is why Santorum cannot win.
Just wait until you hear the outrage at FR when the realization sets in that the Establishment Romneyites in TN, IN, IL, et al won’t award Santorum delegates because they are not required to do so (due to his ballot and delegate fielding issues).
Some folks here are going to go ballistic.

“Romney is the dirtiest politician I have ever witnessed.”
One thing that I say to my slobbering Rino Romney friends if they ask what my problem with him is:
“Mitt Romney has NO HONOR”. They get quiet..

This is why I will NEVER vote for Romney. Money talks.
To: cripplecreek
Thanks Credentials Committee! Each little deceitful detail like this just enforces my no vote for Romney. His money doesn’t impress me.

Here is the outrage of the day brought to you by the GOP E. Moving the goalposts after the game is over...AGAIN.
Santorum for President Ping List.
FReepmail Antoninus to be added or removed.

Santorum can give his BFF Michael Moore or the UAW in Michigan. Maybe they can put in a good word for Santorum...

We’d hate to have a single state where the laws and rules were actually obeyed, rather than everyone selling their soul for Romney’s sake.
This is so disgusting. I’m having a hard time even imagining how I could feel more contempt for the R-e than I do right now. Do they have any idea how much the wormy lawlessness grates?
Do they allow write-in candidates for POTUS in the general election?
To: cripplecreek
Mike Cox and Eric Doster are both attorneys. Doster also happens to be MRP's attorney. That vote by him tells me a lot right there. This is bad. Very bad.
I know Mike Cox and gets a lot of crap from people, but he's always been a stand up guy, albeit blunt, from the times I've dealt with him.
