Mitt Romney should not be the nominee. His nomination would make the nominations of John McCain, Bob Dole, Gerald Ford, and Thomas Dewey look inspiring. Even if Romney’s running mate were a good conservative, I would have a hard time supporting him. We’ve held our noses many time, but with Romney, we would need a gas mask to vote for him.
If Newt Gingrich can’t get enough delegates to win the nomination, perhaps we can still prevent Romney from winning a majority of the delegates as well.
The GOP has left me in their desire to please the media and the precious independents. I suffered through Dole, Ford, and McCain, but Romney is the last straw, if he gets the nomination. I will register Independent and vote Tea Party only.
