This is an old cartoon, so don't forget the "Pro-Communist Health Care" and "Anti-Communist Health Care" podiums:
I voted for Goldwater, and I would have voted for Dr Paul last time but Fla would allow a write-in but would not count Paul—so I voted Chuck Baldwin.
I’m not an R, nor a D, but I’d vote Paul as an R, but preferably as a 3d...
I can understand Rs problem w/Romney, though.
Seems to me most Rs would then go with Perry, considering that most compromise on anything/everything...but I just don’t understand people...or maybe I do, just don;t accept them.
;)
Semper Watching!

” ... an informed technocrat like Romney would seem a dream candidate.” Silly me. I thought jokes were for the funny papers.
I'm comfortable with thinking of Mitt Romney as castor oil:
"Although castor oil may be used for constipation, it is not a preferred treatment, because it can produce painful cramps, fecal incontinence and explosive diarrhea. Its action can go on for hours, sometimes unpredictably and powerfully causing an involuntary bowel movement at inconvenient locations and during sleep."
I'm not read for four years of that side effect! Not with my money and my government.
Bears repeating!
“I am big time in the ABO crowd...I have my deepest criticisms for Huntsman. Cannot stand him.
But I will run, not walk, to vote for him if he is the nominee.
My theory is this: all of the Republicans are flawed...but all of them love America. Hussein is not just flawed, but willingly soand he hates America.
This is one reason Hussein is a worse President than Carter. Carter, inept and feckless, at least loved this country...Hussein doesnt.
Ill take a flawed person who loves America over one who hates our nation.
So yes, I question his patriotism.”
So, what do you kids want, a Mormon or a Muslim? A failure to vote for the Mormon is effectively a vote for the Muslim. Me, I’ll take the Mormon.
Sounds a lot like what we’re stuck with now as pResident.
I will not vote for Romney - ever.
I voted for McLaim last time ONLY because of Sarah.
I will not vote for RINOmney, no matter who the VP would be.
If there is a third party conservative candidate, I’ll vote for them.
If there is not third party candidate, I’ll go fishing.
Cain!
VDH doesn’t understand Paul’s foreign policy which is not “isolationist.” On trade, the pro-free trade Paul is probably more of an internationalist than VDH.
I was a Goldwater Girl in high school and I would never vote for Paul. I don’t support people who continually make excuses for terrorist leaders, never has seen an enemy of the US and taken them seriously. He may have some good economy policy ideas, however his view on national security leave much to be desired.
I have another, similar thought. Ultimately Republicans are pro-business and Democrats are anti-business, regardless of all else.
For must of us we spend 1/3 of the time sleeping, 1/3 of the time working and 1/3 of the time recreating. Given this reality it's HUGELY important to go with the pro-business party.
I really didn't think that McCain would wind up the choice last time. It's what we get for allowing open primary elections. That's why we fixed all that this time around..............Oh, wait......
This kid doesn’t want a socialist whether they are mormon or muslim. I will not vote for Romney because he is a liberal - it’s that simple.
I have lived in Texas for almost thirty years. Things are not perfect, but I’m satisfied. I never want to live in Massachusetts.
That said, IF Romney gets nominated, I'll probably hold my nose and vote for him. Better than the Bamster. That is the main thing, GET RID OF OBAMA.
Hopefully Romney won't even get nominated.
“A failure to vote for the Mormon is effectively a vote for the Muslim. “
... logic like that is why we keep ending up with RINO candidates - weak, milk-toast, stunted, deformed, stillborn candidates.
If they run, they are picked off easily - Dole, McCain, etc. If they win, they are not equipped to govern and lead as
conservatives and damage the country and party.
By NOT VOTING FOR A RINO, I am communicating that they better do better to deserve my vote, or they don’t get it. Maybe next time they’ll listen. Maybe the country will learn by destruction. They are certainly going to tee up the ball for a third party
run by a conservative candidate.
There is a stench that hangs over Willard that will not be perfumed or washed away. He is a liberal, self-centered,
guy who wants to be worshipped on earth before he gets a planet of his own.
You can nominate him via your false choice. He will not win and if he does, you will get another Obama in policy and
a crippled party and a crippled country. My goal isn’t to slow the train down as it goes toward a cliff. It is to turn
the stinkin’ train around. Nominating and electing RINOmney is the same as watching a the same train wreck in slow
motion.
I may not be able to stop it with my one vote.
I refuse to participate in it.
Oh my.
I had to stop reading. It was around the line where he wrote we don’t have to worry about Romney being exposed for having a DUI charge.
Actually, he has a DUD charge: Driving Under Dog. Putting the sick pooch on the roof was an uncommonly heartless act.
But it doesn’t approach protecting the so-called “right” to kill a baby.
We have enormous reason to reject Mitt Romney. Mine don’t include Mormonism, or an aversion to well-educated candidates (is he? really?)
Yes, he is vetted. And found wanting. Wanting of core, of principles, of integrity.
Unfortunately, I’m going to have to hold my nose and take the full dose of your article, Mr. Hanson. Because now I have misgivings about you!
Logical political calculus? How about ideological concerns?
