Hi John

I would not waste your time. This is a emotion driven, not rational, poster. Anyone who says the below is so out of touch with political reality as to be disillusional

Era of Voting for RINOs is Declared Over

America survived 3 years of Obama, and will survive another 5 just fine. Obama is a lousy manager and a mediocre politician, with GOP in control of the House nothing will pass anyway, and in 2014 the usual midterm electorate will increase the GOP majority, even if the economy grows (and it probably will grow at 3%, 3.5% at best). In any case, Romney will not do anything materially different from Obama, and since the real fiscal crisis is about 10-12 years away, the deadlock is the best we should expect in the next presidential cycle or two.

I see no point in voting for Romney, given the choices the second term for Obama may be preferable, and perhaps in 2016 we can have some decent candidates.

You mean delusional? I think people who think 4 years of Romney will be different from Obama’s 2nd term are delusional (well, maybe Romney will run $990 bil annuall deficits as opposed to Obama’s $1 trillion), but then election time is always a silly season, so we are all entitled to our delusions.

In any case, my January post was a bit too optimistic - I was sure the House majority will stay intact, but now it looks like Romney can drag it down with him as well.
