What a lemon.
the more the debate moves the candidate to the right and into more controversial social issues, he said.

Yeah you wouldnt want people to think Willie Mitty leans to the right...

Yeah mustnt upset the independents..Romneys homies..
The Republicans and the Conservatives ???
P them off all ya want..
moral character chosen by 19 percent; and being a true conservative chosen by 10 percent.

The ones these werent important too voted for Romney...
They continue to say he has to do this or that. He does it and they say he still hasn’t closed the deal,”
If the “deal” is winning the Presidential Election, that ain’t never going to happen. If Romney becomes the GOP nominee a huge segment of the conservative vote will be sitting it out. Poeple are done with that silly nonsense of voting for the “lesser of two evils” You run two evils well then you can have the biggest one...........
Wow! Those guys are ON FIRE for Myth!
The GOP-e could not have chosen a better candidate to depress the vote in the general election.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
That was good!
He did all the right things to buy the GOP nomination but he left out one thing—you can't sell what you ain't got—especially a vital commodity like character.
The people didn't bother showing up to vote. There was an historic low turn out. Even if Romney had gotten all the votes he'd still received barely more than 10% of what is normally the turnout in a Presidential primary.
He is not able to pull the party base behind him. How would he peel off a Democrat faction if he can't do that?
The old "go to the middle" stuff doesn't help ~ there is NO MIDDLE. In fact, there's now $6.00 gasoline in California and by Summer we should have $7.00, maybe $8.00 gasoline all over the country with a serious worsening of the Great Obama Recession.
Newt begins to look better and better with that in place!

It’s our own fault. The Conservatives can never settle on one candidate to take on the lone Moderate. They keep splitting the vote and we end up with a Moderate candidate like John McCain. So, I blame the Conservatives as much as I blame the establishment. We’re dividing our votes and giving RINO-Rom the victories in state after state. JUST DAMN!!! Maybe it’s time that we split off and organize “The Conservative Party of America”.
Hey Mass, it wouldn’t take so long if you would send us a candidate that wasn’t left of Jimmy Carter.
Good Morning muawiyah-
Yep. News reports said this was a record low voter turnout for the GOP Primary here in the Old Dominion ...possibly the worst in history according to the radio.
My wife and I are Newt supporters; so we “protest voted” for “crazy uncle” Ron Paul. She said the turnout was light when she went to vote early and there was no one at the polling place when I voted in mid afternoon except election officials. One local county had an ENTIRE PRECINCT WHERE NO ONE CAME TO VOTE!!! ...and this is a VERY CONSERVATIVE area w/strong GOP support.
Mitt is a big time loser and will hurt the entire GOP “ticket.” If the GOP elites think Mitt will help w/the Senate and House candidates they need to be tested for hallucinogens!!!
‘Take care,

This article perfectly encapsulates the Romney supporters I know. They keep insisting to me on his “inevitablility” and hoe I am hurting the party and the chances of defeating Obama because I’m selfish and won’t just simply “get in line” behind Romney.
I tell them that I’ll never again “fall in line” for some moderate weasel the GOPe tries to stuff down my throat. If Romney has to fight all the way to the convention and then gets has ass handed to him by Obama (which he will since Romney can only seem to win majorities in urban areas where Obama will clean his clock), the GOPe has nobody to blame but themselves.
You would have thought that the Bush the Elder nightmare with Ross Perot would have opened their eyes, but here we are 20 years later and the GOPe is still trying to force meateaters to feast on oatmeal.
“Maybe it’s time that we split off and organize “The Conservative Party of America”.
Hear, hear!
GOP is dead, long live CPA!
The goal at this point is simply to deny myth the 1144 delegates he needs to clinch.
If he doesn't get them, there will be a brokered convention at which we will put the nails in the coffin of the GOPe.
He wouldn't be running against a Democrat endorsed by the KKK this time but is he going to support the ticket or go with the people?
At the same time if all we are running is Gingrich you'll lose the old ladies and the church choir who'll only vote for a former alter boy. If all we run is Santorum, you'll lose the people who demand total adherence to a balanced budget.
Running them together against Romney deprives him of both the Social Conservative and Fiscal Conservative votes. All that's left for Romney are the fringe voters and Mormons, and that doesn't win the election!
Not to worry, the Romney game planners know this already. That's why Bolling and company sought so hard to de-reail the primary in Virginia.
