' All this does not make him a conservative, but it does make him formidable. In simple truth, an actual conservative would have a hard time coming to grips with Obama. The entire Democratic/progressive/media machine is primed to annihilate such a candidate, who would spend all of this time defending himself with no chance to strike at Obama. Under these less-than-perfect circumstances, Mitt Romney is as close to a perfect candidate as we are going to get."

So Dunn admits Romney is not a conservative but he is formidable. A true conservative could not beat Obama? is this what the GOP has come down to? so long as we have a watered down republican that is fine with them.

The GOP leadership is trying to pull off a trifecta, a super-hat-trick.

One, as long as the economy's in the tank, they don't want the Presidency. They want to avoid the blame and scapegoat the Democrats. Which is pretty brash, since they are the guys who went along with Phil "Bankers' Boy" Gramm in repealing Glass-Steagall and unleashing the Wall Street orgy.

Two, they want Obamacare as much as Obama and Nancy Pelosi want it -- but they want to scapegoat, again, and blame the Democrats and stand around saying "well, we tried" and "you know we gave it our all ..." and crap like that, when they were complicit as hell and guilty as hell about the passage of that giant POS. They helped it pass for their Fortune 500 CEO's who've been screaming bloody murder for 15 years for a way to dump their employee healthcare plans. Well, Obama's their Judas goat -- both parties' Judas goat. He and his Communist thugs got the bill through with maladroit legislative leger-de-Mace, and everyone else can pretend innocence, especially on the Republican side.

Three, Obama's vast crimes and derelictions, his imposture as a U.S. citizen (he may not even be one!), and all the rest, will be swept under the rug. The current Republican leadership will no more investigate or drag Obama out into the sunlight than George W. Bush did Bill Clinton, who was a Manchurian candidate, a traitor, a rapist, and many times a felon, even selling presidential pardons and stealing everything that wasn't nailed down as he and his wretched consort cankled out the door.

Mitt Romney won't touch Obama's crimes -- he'll limp-leg us like Dubya did, with some Karl Rove b.s. about how we need to keep focus and "not let the Democrats suck all the air out of the room" and "divert" the President's agenda with "other issues". Not even when the "other issues", are vast crimes with dead bodies attached to them.

Infuriating, isn’t it? So Mitt Romney is a de facto Democrat, but he can win. Wow! I hate the electability argument with a passion. Centrists only use it so they can foist their lame candidates on us. It’s the only thing they have. They can’t win on ideology or ideas. They have none (compromise doesn’t count as an ideology)!

“Vote for my guy. He’ll sell you out on day one, but he can win!”

PUKE!

Oh, and this isn’t about purity. Mitt Romney isn’t even close to being my 80% friend.
