We are in an emergency situation here. A homosexual on the NJ Supreme Court? As they say where I live, “That should be your worst problem.”

You seem to miss the point. If Romney governs like Obama, only slightly less so, then there is no reason to vote for him.

If he approached Supreme Court nominations the way Christie does, then he will nominate liberal activists to ‘get along’ with the Democrats in Congress - which is EXACTLY how he governed in Mass...

So why bother?

So I guess people can’t take a stand for moral fabric and virtue anymore?

I didn’t say he would govern like Obama but less so. I don’t think you have been paying attention, either to what I said or to what Obama is doing.

Anyway, I detest Romney and am not trying to convince anyone to vote for him.

It’s not really part of the tea party. That was the point. A limited point, I agree.

I guess I resented Santorum being called tea party and representative of the tea party by this numbskull. Shows he knows nothing about the issues.

If we insist on smaller government and the right to work, neither of which is a Santorum strong point, we could do all right. If we get into whether insurers have to provide free birth control we are toast. And that goes for any other distracting choir-boy issues as well.
