You want to blame somebody for us having Romney as the nominee? Blame both Gingrich and Santorum for both being selfish and staying in the race to split up the the conservative / anti-Romney vote.

You're delusional. Santorum has had the fight all to himself for the past month or so (with Gingrich in the single digits) and hasn't made a dent. Why? Because the Republican establishment did their best to stack the deck. They made sure the funding, the press (i.e. Fox News, et al.), the endorsements all came in for Romney early. Romney and the GOP-e BOUGHT this nomination... before the process even started. The amazing thing is how much the people were able to resist. Romney should have had it wrapped up in February... but the actual voters didn't like him. So the money went to target and smear every not-Romney in contention. There is no doubt in my mind that Romney money funded the Cain accusers, the Gingrich smears, the Santorum rumors... not a doubt.

So we are not "stuck" with Romney... we were stuck with Romney (from the beginning). Which is why the Republican party won't be getting a dime of my money or a minute of my time. I'll support local candidates who are worthy, but the national GOP is dead to me...
