Hey, Ohio. Vote for Mitt anyway!

Posted on 02/08/2008 5:09:12 PM PST by Grig

Want to send a message about your dislike for McCain? Vote for Mitt when you have your primary. Mitt stoped activily campaigning, but he is still a candidate for the nomination and he will be on the ballot.

Just imagine if Mitt wins the state after suspending his campaign, what a hoot to see McCain that night!

I’m giving it a lot of thought. After all, McNasty will win the nomination as it stands; why not send him a message. ;-)

If people want to make a protest vote, they'll probably vote for a conservative.

Why would anyone vote for Mitt?

I was thinking you should all vote for Ron Paul to prevent the other two from winning delegates, which would then cause a brokered convention.

But since the votes WILL count for Romney, that's a great idea!

May be too late to get him off, if not, write in is always an option.

Great idea! Since McCain’s got it in the bag you wouldn’t even be losing a vote. I think if you’re in a state that hasn’t voted yet and you were thinking of voting Mitt, go ahead and do it anyway! It WOULD be a hoot if he gave McCain a run for his money without even campaigning!

All the candidates names were on our ballots on Tuesday and they do record them as votes, even if they aren’t in the race.

Good idea! I will be voting for Mitt here in Virginia on the 12th.

“Why would anyone vote for Mitt?”

JohnnyZ suffers from Romney derangement syndrome much the same way Liberals suffer from Bush derangement syndrome. It’s getting old, JohnnyZ

Mitt - the deliciously rebellious choice :)

I will vote in Ohio.

I will not vote for Romney.

I have convinced my entire family to vote for McCain.

We will not be sitting this out and hand the election to the Democrats.

A brokered convention is not going to happen. We have to face the reality that, barring a major scandal, McCain is the Republican nominee.

All the original candidates are still on our ballot. I’m voting for Mitt and encouraging the state to withhold delegates for McCain because we didn’t get to vote before the candidate was chosen.

That MIGHT be true, but if people don’t want to vote for him, they shouldn’t!

Technically he is not chosen until he wins enough delegates.

That is the only reason that they are keeping Huckabee in the race. He thinks that he’s getting the veep position, but he’s not.

Under the circumstances, I don’t blame you. I don’t have to vote yet and I am not looking forward to it.
