Why are sane conservative would vote to put Romney in the White House and in charge of the Republican party baffles me. He is actively working to undermine the grassroots even before he gets into office. He is doing it brazenly because too many idiots are going to vote from him no matter what.

If he is doing all this now, his attempt to destroy conservatism from within the party is going to be even more aggressive when he gets into office. It's insanity to think he or the damage he will do can be stopped once he gets into office.

Why are sane conservatives not going to vote or going to vote to put obama back in the White House. The formation of a conservative third party sounds good AFTER this election in November.

Romney intends to come after the republican party first, cut our legs out from under, leaving us to look like a mob. Obama intends to come after America broadly, sweeping up and out all things traditional.

Either way, WE are out. So, which tree do we want to swing from?
Ron Paul’s organization is the only thing left standing in a position to raise hell on the convention floor, and I am all for it!

God bless the Paul obstruction efforts, if even they are not silenced.

That may be so Kazan, but we are between a rock and a hard place as far as Washington DC is concerned.

No man we send there will ever seriously give up power, it is not in the nature of politicians to give up the very power they run to possess. It is understandable why even when elected on this printable they have demonstratively dragged their feet to the point of failing or simply accomplishing nothing.

In many ways we are dealing with a machine the only differences is the leftist agenda lends itself well to the self-interest of that machine although not in the way Liberals think it does. The difference there is the reason why liberals never accomplish dream with government.

Still if we are to accomplish our goals we must create and enact a strategy capable of achieving that end rather than simply attempting to uses this machine to do that which it is not designed/inclined to do.

That means of course if we want to reclaim our rights, we will have to do it from outside of Washington with self-interested tools in opposition. Regretfully however that also requires overcoming certant historic barriers erected by the Federal Government to resist the same kind of attack upon its usurped power.

It is worth noting that most all of them are centered around Washington ability to uses force. So if we defang the Federal military, and beef up our states Washington;s many tricks become a lot less threatening, and as a result their power becomes a lot more consensual.
