Don’t forget the tens of thousands of lawyers The Won’s regime has hired to contest elections in all 50 states.

Hadn't heard that one -- do you have a source?

Sure do.

One from the enemy:

One from a more Conservative source:

Does no one consider that Obama and the Ruling Class CHOSE Romney to be his opposition? Chosen to lose? Chosen to hit the mat in the third round by the Movers and Shakers?

Donna Brazile, a 'Rat mugwump on Georgie Clintonopoulos's show on Sunday mornings, told the table last January that every time Romney had a good primary night, Obama had a better one, because Romney was Obama's preferred nominee -- the weakest candidate in the GOP field.

So she said, in a moment of candor.

You really outta stop with impish and banal name calling. we’ve traded great thoughts before BUT like I said “My Friggin doesn’t matter here CA”.

Stop pretending it does because if I back in Oklahoma it would and would vote for this putz. But, it doesn’t and I’m not interested in some Whole who says for two months his job Numeric No on day one will be the repeal of ObamaCare and now he is toting his statist ideas about how he will leave his imprint on America with his grand savior ideas that he likes and we will pay for.

As if $17 trillion in toilet paper debt isn’t enough he is giving truth to his lies and will be the same ol’, same ol’.

So like I said I don’t matter and I’m starting think of you as irrelevant for the time being.

Perhaps you could convince Romney to let you be his campaign spokesman?

Your replies are better than what we are hearing.

But I am not expecting much difference in what we currently see.

I remember that specifically, which is why I say that Romney is Obama's chosen nominee.

Too many apparently either want to ignore that, or are ignorant of it.

But there it is.

We've gone Soviet - and America has no clue the election of 2012 is just a show to placate the masses into thinking they have a choice.

At least that is how it looks to me, judging the fruits and the quotes like the one you dug up and posted for us to recall.

His only suggestion is that most voters figure things would just be worse under the GOP.

In other words, most voters are idiots.

The defeatism around here is unusually high lately.

Fed by our candidate speaking at the Clinton Global Initiative and running around plugging Obamacare Lite

Of course, if and when this thing collapses, you can be damn sure the next Democrat politician will make those folks get all their goodies...at the expense of the rest of us who take the financial hits directly....we’ll get it twice to pay for the recipient class, as always.

Romney should say of the folliowing over and over:

1. “With a record as bad as his, Obama should not be running for re-election, but be running out of town by taxpayers.”

2. “Why are we holding our potus to less of a standard than each of us is held to every day of our lives.”

I use this for my clients when the topic comes up. I do commercial construction litigation and a lot of mechanic’s lien work:

3. You hired me to represent you because I made a great initial impression and gave a great sales presentation as to my capabilities that I could handle your accounts competently and get you results. Based on that you trusted me with your files and gave me a substantial amount of work.

Let’s say a year goes by and I still have barely gotten any results for you and you wanted answers. I agreed to the meeting w the company execs and purchasing staff. Instead of giving answers as to my performance or lack thereof I proceed to give the same exact bang up sales job I gave the first time when they hired me.

QUESTION: WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO ME? ? ? ? ? ?

Case closed. I have yet to hear one rebutal to that.

How about this argument:

Let’s say your car is all F’ed up and you take it to the shop. You like the mechanic since you have hung out w him in a bar a few times but never really had him work on anything before. You leave the car there thinking it the alternator or the starter or something but nothing sufficient to junk the car.

a week later you call up the shop and ask about your car. Mechanic says your last mechanic really screwed up your car bad and that he has not yet figured out what is wrong with it. However he gives you a bill for his time, asks for more time which you agree to.

A week later you call back. Car is still in the shop. mechanic still blames last mechanic and now thinks you have to change out the transmission, engine, exhuast system, and suspension and brakes. He hands you another big bill for the time he has spent on your car and its still F’ed up.

AT THAT POINT WOULD YOU CONTINUE W SAID MECHANIC OR CHANGE SHOPS?

Case closed. If Romney makes that argument he wins.

You don’t see those stickers because nobody wants to get their car keyed.

Come on Freeps... this was coming and u should have known it. The media as one big propaganda circus was going to come out after the conventions in unison and claim VICTORY for Team Bozo.

Stay focused in the weeks ahead.

That said I am a bit taken aback by all the concern when months ago nobody here would even support Romney and were willing to let Obozo walk away with this in protest.... hmmm.

Indeed they are! The proof was back when the GOP nominated (anointed) McNutt as their “boy” and failed to realize the game was over before it even started. The real proof that they were idiots was the fact that they didn’t form a third party immediately when they heard who was running.

If that third party was formed back in 2008 it’s highly likely that it would be a formidable party today.......but the idiots didn’t and look at the GOP has again.

Where are they?

Answer: They were killed by Political Correctness and Romney has been severely injured by it.

The republicans are like high class rich city kids who play by strict rules and have never learned to fight with those who don’t.

In all cases those who fight by the rules lose when fighting with those who don’t.

It’s a simple fact of life.

If Romney made ANY of the arguments you presented - he might garner enough votes to overcome the blatant Cook County Fraud that is going to surpass any in mankind's history on earth.

But he is NOT making those arguments now is he?

Perhaps he wants to leave that up to people like you - so that if he is dragged into the "winners circle" by folks like you, and is sworn into office - he can betray Conservatives and keep everything Obama has already done on the books. Then he can say "I'm not beholden to the Right wing extremists in our party", because of course he did not engage in any Right Wing boilerplate against Obama.

Of course, I contend that is what Tuesday at the RNC was all about anyway; rendering Conservatism irrelevant in national politics from this moment on out.
