So your theory is that the same party fathers who would not let us choose a conservative to run in 2008 or 2012, during open primaries will not only let us run one in 2016, but they’ll let an INCUMBENT SITTING president step aside so it can happen.

Pull the other finger.

No. First we save the GOP, then we can save the country. The mittbots have it all backwards. The GOP must be taught a lesson.

For the record, I loathe Romney. I am NRA to the core, and know full well what he is on every issue, including guns. I don’t expect him to be Conservative, I just expect something a little less bad than Obama.

If you know of any way to throw this to the convention, and get another nominee, I’ll help enthusiastically

But if it is a choice between Romney and Obama, I look at the Supreme Court, and wonder, if a roaring ball of fire like Breitbart (God rest his soul), can pass on at his age, what if we lose a Conservative Justice (God forbid), in the next four years?

Romney sucks, but he will likely be better than Obama on that, and that is what I see.

I’m not rooting for Romney. I’m not even sure I will actually vote for him. I can’t say he won’t be worse than Obama legislatively, since he will be able to pass Liberal stuff Obama probably couldn’t. If he loses, I actually won’t feel all that bad, given how the establishment will lose too, and the risk he poses. And I loathe Liberals, so that is saying something.

But, by the same token, the Supremes even things out for me, and I won’t get in his way, if he ends up the nominee.

No doubt, we have a choice between two big risks to our Republic, and I am not absolutely sure mine is the right one to take. But it looks that way to me, so I’m going with it, tentatively. I respect your positions though, and can’t criticize you or point out errors in your logic.

I just hope we get enough traction in Congress to mitigate the damage either way.

With another four years of Obama, there won’t be a country left to save. He will implement programs that can’t be gotten rid of and will pull the US down to a third world status. Look what his first term is like, when he still has to worry about reelection — wait until he is totally unconstrained in his second term.
