Who you work for?

I am new to Free Republic. I look forward to being a small part of this community.
I see by many of the postings that most of the posters on this website are ANTI-Romney. That is good because I am too. I am a conservative from Tallahassee, Florida.
I am torn between Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum. Reading some of the postings I see there are passionate folks on the Newt side as well as on the Rick side.
I am leaning toward Rick Santorum because I think he can best beat Romney in the Primary and frankly I think ANYONE can beat Obama in the general. So my gut tells me to support the most conservative in the race.
I am also a Christian Homeschooling dad so you might see why I favor Rick Santorum but I can support Newt in the general election should he win the nomination. I don't think I can stomach voting for Romney though.
Any advise for a newbie?
Jim
Don't waste your time posting topics until you are fully aware of what's acceptable..and the typical attacks you are going to get.
Never walk alone through the Hurtgen Forest
One more thing. Don’t ever admit you shot a dog as a tpd officer.
I think you've drawn the wrong conclusion about this website. Nothing political going on here.
Mostly a family oriented chat-site talking about cheese eating moose, sisters in showers, Italians etc but no politickin' going on here......
Yes, have a thick skin, don’t take yourself too seriously and learn to spell and to make paragraphs, in that order :-)
Who you work for?
so, does anyone remember ash?
It's the Hat Mitt of Invisibility
First thing that came to mind, so.....
;]
I can't recall ever replying to you. Probably have though....
First off...I'd not have advised the noob the way you did...
It's apparent you have some beef with many other individual poster's here, and you of course should have pinged them.
( I won't do it now...but it is custom, right??? )
...But it's made you appear like a crusty, grudge holding anti-FReeper...that maybe read's more DU...than FR??????
FWIW...I've never read a thing over at DU.
Call it like you see it.........
Ash Alert!!! How about that great anti-semite A+Bert?
And MiaT’s bandwidth busting creepy graphics...
As it is, he's nothing more than a gun-grabbing, pro-abortion, big government statist. RomneyCare is but just one his numerous faults.
I'm surprised the original poster fails to grasp this. It's certainly made clear enough here on FR and the boss has repeatedly emphasized NO ROMNEY, NO WAY!
back in my dial up days I did laundry, made dinner, walked the dog and painted the house....it was still loading.
Hi Jim! Brave of you for posting so soon ; people here love to tease.
Welcome. I’m a homeschooling mom in the Los Angeles area, belly of the beast.
I believe that Santorum could beat both Romney and Obama. Santorum is not slick, but he’s intelligent. He is real, where Romney is scripted and phony. I was listening to rush where they played Dead Intern in the Morning Joe, with Santorum today, and he pressured him on “why the birth control issue” and Santo slapped him down beautifully! I was cheering in my car. Do not fall for the media trying to frame him as a social conservative only.
There are a lot of newt supporters here, who don’t realize newt is now helping Romney in the delegate race. If Santorum can win a plurality in some of the states, he can guarantee mitt zero. He can’t do that with Newt siphoning off 10-15%. Newt is personally a deeply needy man, which can affect the use of his full intellect. He’s a better debater and he is shot through with genius ideas, but he’s not likely to be the best steward of the presidency or remember he is our representative. He has not been consistent in conservative ideals either.
That helped me pick Santorum, because after Cain I carefully chose between the rest, and that was when Newt was doing well AND debating once a week. He is too desperate for love and attention, and we’ve recently had two of his personality type in the WH, Clinton and Obama, and see where that gets us?
Good luck here.
