I've never felt I had to hold my nose and vote for a Republican president before. There was enough I liked about every one that I felt they would be far and away better than the Democrat, would be good for the country, would be good for the party, and were not the worst possible choice available. I'm not that picky and don't expect 100% conservative compliance in a candidate.
So you know Romney's got problems if I'm dead set against supporting him. This is a RINO beyond anything we've ever seen before and a uniquely unappealing candidate. Having a history that's on the wrong side of social issues like abortion and homosexual marriage is almost certainly a dealbreaker for me. If he was simply a libertarian, then maybe I could hold my nose and vote for him, but his big-government, progressive economic record rules that out.
There is absolutely no other alternative now. If you want Bam out of there Mitt is our only available tool.
He's some kind of tool, alright.
Your energy is misdirected. Try convincing voters in the remaining 20 primary states to not vote for Mitt before you try to convince Freepers to vote for him in the general election. My primary's up on April 24th and I won't be voting for Mitt or our state party's OTHER hand-picked limousine liberal Republican Senator wannabe, Steve Welch.
and hope that we have the courage to change what we can change and the wisdom to accept what we cannot change.
Bam’s gotta go. End of story in my book.
