There’s going to be a bunch of people drinking a big glass of reality, now that the loony dream of imposing a minority’s will on the majority finally has its head carried out on a pole. We’ve all seen this activity for months — oh, there’s going to be a convention fight, voting irregularities mean throwing out all results, other long hits on the bong — and it’s also been clear for months that it wasn’t going to happen that way.
During the primaries the most inutterable stupidities were uttered — that (fill in the blank, literally every last candidate except Romney himself) was “a stalking horse for Romney”. Everyone in all directions? RINOs. NeoCons. Pro-polymagy flip-flopping abortionist pornographers. There have been dozens or maybe hundreds of anti-LDS crap topics.
I haven’t yet voted for Romney.
In November I will, and will be happy to do it.
Zero has to go, because it’s quite literally him or us.
And “him or us” isn’t “lesser of two evils”. He has to go. Period.
Thanks 2ndDivisionVet.
Well good luck.
Excellent post!
Well said. It’s time to pick a side. You’re either for attempting to at least slow down the train before it wrecks, or actively aid the guy who’s going to jam the accelerator all the way to the floor.
There are no other choices. Anyone sitting out this election claiming ideological purity is actively aiding Obama. That’s the fact.
I will vote for anyone to get the COMMUNIST OUT.
Even Charlie Sheen.
If the communist is not voted out, it will not be America anymore. It will be game on, the whole schmear will come apart at the seams. No predictions as to what that looks like. Not pretty I’m sure. Probably something like a cross between Nazi Germany and Mexico, throw in a little Haiti for variety.
Well, in November, I will also be voting for Romney, but, unlike you, I am not happy to do so.
But I will vote for him because, yes, Obama must go. Our country cannot survive another term of the Soros Administration.
Much as I hate having the (only realistic) choice being between these two, “O Gotta Go!”
And “him or us” isn’t “lesser of two evils”. He has to go. Period.
I don't like Romney and I particularly dislike Romniacs.
But I agree with you SunkenCiv. The communist has to be driven from office. We can worry about fighting Romney the day after the inauguration and for the next four years after that. I may wind up third party before the year is out, but that comes after January.
Leaving O in office isn't an option.
Yup, the Ron Paul kooks can go away now. Paul got about 10% of the primary vote and he got about 10% of the delegates. That is about how it should have gone. The Paultards caused some trouble at a few of the state conventions, but the local, state and national Republicans are ready for these people now. It's over for Paul in the GOP. Paul and his supporters were never going to vote for the eventual GOP nominee (probably the majority will vote for Obama like they did last time), and there is no reason the party should take paulbots seriously. Go to any Paul forum and you can see how much they hate the GOP platform - specifically things like the pro-life planks, the support for Israel, etc.
So any Paulbots reading this. Welcome to reality. None of your silly talk panned out. Go away. The Republican party may have reacted slowly, but your stunts at the local/state level will be harder to pull off next time around. Then again, it really doesn't matter - your guy is too old to run again. Please go make a nuisance of yourself in the Democrat party. Heck, I'd be rooting for you if you did - a libertarian takeover of the Democrat party would be a very good thing.
In November I will, and will be happy to do it.
Yup, same. Romney/Ryan or Obama/Biden. That is the choice. Those are the options. Romney/Ryan is vastly superior to Obama/Biden.
I am through with the GOP if they don’t get their act together.
I will vote for Romney if for no other reason than four more years of Obama damage may be too great for the country to bear.
If Romney manages to win but then does not govern as a conservative, however, I will either work to defeat him in the primaries or will look to embrace a serious third party alternative (if one exists). For now though, the number one issue is beating Hussein Obama.
In order to pull that off, we are all going to need to put aside our differences one more time and pull together so we can send the Kenyan back home to Chicago where he can do no more damage to our beloved country.
You are correct and let me add that we’ve learned from the past, that is conservatives have. If, and it is a big if, the GOP sweeps it, we need to expect pandering, stupidity and back tracking. But, a tactic once understood is no longer a tactic. Look to lynchpin issues as our victory points. We need to do two things: 1. move the ball toward our goals in such a way that turning back will be politically untenable and 2. win election after election for a generation or more.
Nothing’s going to change over just one election cycle. FDR didn’t change everything in one term. We have to fight hard year to year, but keep the long game in mind - getting our Constitutional Republic back.
America was the first revolution to truly succeed and advance liberty. Forget Rome, forget Greece and all the ancient history of liberty won and lost. History never foresaw the rise of America. Let’s be the first republic to regain the Republic from the jaws of oligarchy.
Thanks, Sunk.
That’s what I think too, but the peanut gallery is needing a great big diaper change by now, and they’re still at it. I’m done with debate. Not good for my health these days.
Let’s hope that you (and I) are right about this. And hope that all the shouting cools off.
PLEASE EVERYONE, I’M SERIOUS ABOUT MY HEALTH....SO DON’T TRY TO GOAD ME INTO SOMETHING I’LL REGRET. THNX.
Right on.
I’m with you SunkenCiv.
Make no mistake. From this moment forward I will work and vote for romneyRYAN, and I will enthusiastically exhort others to do the same, but, after today - once they are duly elected, I will begin to work in earnest to seat as many genuine conservative Constitutionalists as I can at the local, state and federal level, and to push for term limits, with a long term goal of turning every one of these usurpers out, and I will admit Lord, that I will feel a special joy at defeating the false compatriots within our own ranks.
No more career politicians. Citizen Statesmen All.
May God guide our course and share His strength, because Lord, we are going to need it.
Tatt
I feel the same way. I do not feel comfortable with Romney. His flip flop on abortion bothers me but it could be genuine.
The bottom line, O has got to go!
I’ll vote for Romney as well in November.
Good job!
I will also be voting for Romney. At one time I swore I would not. Then Chief Justice Roberts decided the Constitution was no longer valid law and overturned it.
From that point, I realized that no matter what, no matter who, 0bama HAS to go. If Romney is the guy, then so be it. It’s really a not a difficult decision.
Thanks for the ping.
~~~~~~~~~~
Right on!
I expect there are millions of us genuine Americans who have realized that getting rid of the anti-American traitor would justify far more aggressive actions than simply voting for the RINO/liberal Romney or his dumb@$$ party.
I devoutly hope that the quasi-Americans who are turning their yellow tails and abandoning the fight by withholding their vote for "reasons of principle" come to their senses -- lest need for those "other actions" be thrust upon us all...
Grow up, kiddies!!!

He has to go. Period.
Thank you, well said...
