“Go ahead and flame me with high-minded principals, but I say this board needs to curtail the infighting, focus instead on the enemy, and then cast our votes for who we think can best keep Obama from winning another term. He’s the enemy.”
While I agree with you in principle....you have to realize that “some” (like Romney & Paul) that are running for the GOP nomination are the enemy as well; wolves in sheep clothing. A Romney or Paul presidency would be as damaging to true conservatism (what will actually fix this country) as 4 more years of Obama.
Now that being said, it does bother me that Perry and Palin supporters are in a blood feud that could damage the general election. So, I see your point.
I understand the concerns about Romney. He is not my candidate; Sara Palin is until the nominee is chosen. However, if Romney survives and somehow becomes the nominee, then he has my full and complete support. The reason I state this is based on the Supreme Court. No matter what Romney might do elsewhere regarding domestic/foreign policy, I do not believe he will destroy our Republic by appointing another marxist/socialist to the court.
So my argument regarding these early debates comes down to the Supreme Court. My urging of less attacks on each other and more focused attacks on the economy, foreign policy, and the socialist inept leader we are saddled with in Obama, should be the aim due to what we will lose with another 4 years of marxist governing. I believe with all my heart that the Supreme Court is the most precious, most critical possession our Republic has for survival. Look at the ages and health of its justices. Should make us all shudder. I fear that another 4 years of Obama will see the court lost and along with it our Republic as we know it.
