There’s a difference between saying it with a candidate who doesn’t support small government and saying it with Bachmann. I have some reservations about Bachmann but I would still support her if she got the GOP nod. No way in hell would I ever vote for a Romney, Pawlenty, or [shudder] Huntsman.
I doubt you’ll see many people here say the same about Ron Paul, which is a prime example of just how the Patrick1 Republican types work. First they talk about electability as if it were the end-all-be-all, and after electability is shown in polls and primaries by folks like Bachman or Paul, then the truth comes out. They won’t support constitutional conservatives, period—but conservatives are supposed to trot out to support their RINO buddies.
I haven’t noticed a whole lot of noise about the fact that the two biggest tea partiers were the #1 and #2 in this poll. I hope that is an indication of who will be driving in the primaries...but I doubt it, given where Perry is trying to milk votes and money. I see this being the corporate GOP/RNC hacks trying to drive the nail in the coffin for the early primaries having any relevancy in the process. They’ll make a lot of noise now about Bachman, then if Paul wins in NH, about him. But then, if Perry or some other RINO wins in SC, it’ll be all about how a ‘big state’ should be moved to first primary, since ‘they’re more representative of the current GOP.’
Did you ever notice the elft NEVER speaks about their candidate and electability. I give them credit for this, why? They simply disregard you and I and run for the win. They pick their person based upon what that marxist pig will do for them vis-a-vis grow government to ever more intolerable levels. So, they are winners from the start. Only the right hand-wrings over and over because the MEDIA TELLS THEM TO and over and over we hear people ont he right worry about this.
Not me, from now on, I want the most conservative person...why? Simple the most articulate conservative will destroy the left in debate, the most conservative person’s ideas WILL resonate with the whole country buried under government policy, rules, regs and taxes. They’re done with it and the left and the media telling them that everyone hates the right.
Its different now.
