Obama has made it increasingly clear that he will govern by executive orders and any other end-runs around Congress and the Courts he can think of.

That is the significant difference here. Romney may push things that are not conservative, but there is no indication that he will use made up powers to push his agenda. He will play by the rules because he is competent enough, and respectful enough of America, to do so. Obama doesn’t actually know how and doesn’t think it’s that important.

Romney may have policies that are undesireable, but Obama is a Chavez wanna-be.

They’re not the same.

Exactly Okie... the rational idea is thus... have a President who will work and maybe bend to his Congress and Senate. Romney is the guy. Anyone here that says hey let Obama win and we are subject to 4 more years of hard core kommie krap is not being rational.

If Bill Clinton were running against Obama, I would vote for him. I don’t expect any substantive policy changes either way, nor do I expect a President to advance conservatism (that is the job of Congress) but simply electing a President who does not actively hate and constantly try to destroy white American business owners is essential.

Halfmanhalf is just like any of the other fakes. Their worldview is that if something is said often enough, people will change their mind. He’s not used to debating rationally. He and those like him here to plant seeds of doubt just don’t get it. He probably both wonders why people engage him for such short discussions and thinks he’s getting somewhere. Remember, he isn’t around independent thinkers much it seems.

If anybody believes as Allen West does, that “progressive” is code word for “communist”, then they have no business voting for Romney.

I guess that means you believe Romney will be every bit as destructive as Obama. I believe he is the lesser of the two evils and that there would be a number of differences that would be better for the Nation. I'm as tired as anyone of voting the lesser of two evils, but I'd rather oust Obama and move on from there. At least Romney understands the concept of Constitutionality. If Obama stays, the only way to take the country back will be for the Nation to rise up and not only would that be disasterous, even if successful, but it is highly unlikely. Once the Left has its way and assumes dictatorial powers, we become a thrid-world Nation and it goes down hill from there. I vote against that and will not waste my vote by casting it for some "real conservative" who cannot win, and whose votes will only serve to put Obama back in office. I know that must sound like crazy talk to you and those who think as narrowly as your statement, but so be it - I'm just crazy...

Well I said honestly.

You can call yourself whatever you wish, doesn't make it true.

You're like someone who says they hate alcohol and would never touch the stuff then gets drunk every night for 4 years.

You can justify your vote any way you wish.

Call it pragmatism, call it patriotism, say it's for the children, whatever, just don't call voting for a liberal conservatism.

You are what you eat.

I believe that those that feel ( notice I did not use the word think) like Halfmanhalfamazing are a very small minority and reason will prevail in November.
