"I think Rick’s endorsement is waiting on Romney’s family and Romney’s backers to loosen it with cash [or promises of campaign debt clearing help once he endorses Mittf. But not so quickly as to anger his supporters. It is all very much of a pattern.

Don't forget ........... He's "Team Player" who is, was, and always will be an "Establishment" Republican. My word, I've gone down the voting list from Sarah Palin to Newt and I'm going no further. I'll not vote for someone who should actually be running on the Democrat ticket as a moderate Democrat. Let'r rip!

You honestly think Romney is as far left as our Marxist President, a man raised by dedicated communists?

Clearly you know nothing of the spiritual and religious convictions that drive Romney. He takes a different road to the same destination as Obama. Both are morally decadent.

The GOP is only a pretend opposition party. They are one of the 2 branches of the Incumbency Party of Ivy League Lawyers. It’s been that way for decades, these 2 parties have had a lock on the USA for nearly 2 centuries. One of the branches needs to be cut first, if that is the GOP so be it. FUMR

Voting for Obama, knowing what he will do to the country, is an act of sedition. A short hop from treason.

Nah, Romney is a second hand communist. While he is not a dyed in wool commie ..everything in his political history indicates he went along with their programs. So, he’s either a sell out or a go along to get along ..either way not gonna be good for the people.
Definitely not a reformer.

I care far less about his spiritual and religious convictions than his economic convictions, which is what separates him from the current Marxist, and is what will affect the stability of our country.

“So, he’s either a sell out or a go along to get along...”

Which is why we need to take the house and senate, and force him to “go along” with the handful of real conservatives we’ve got. But he has to be there, not Obama, who will appoint more Kagans, veto more of Paul Ryan’s budgets, and continue to drag the country into a Marxist dystopia.

Obama second term might bring this whole socialist/individual freedom conflict to a head. Would be interesting to see. It has to be resolved, why not now?

I make my own decisions based on my own research and what I perceive to be the best interest of my childern, grandchildren and the country.
I need no direction.....you do what you think best and I will do what I think best.
There is no comparison between Romney, however weak, and the Evil ObamaNation in the White House.

“Which is why we need to take the house and senate”

Yep, one of only two options we have (3 if count a miracle=Newt)
The other option is a brokered convention..(Palin?)

Romney should have run as a Democrat. I still don't see anything he did as Governor of MA that qualifies him to receive the votes of conservatives.

With Romney's beliefs and past actions, he would have done quite well as a Democrat. Hell, Romney has just about done more for gun control than Obama has, that would win him a lot of points.

Yes. His cronyism tied to government is simply another form of socialism. He is a different form of socialism than is Obama, but socialism is socialism.

Benito would have been Romney’s good friend.

It’s pretty standard for the top guy to help erase the competitors campaign debt. Romney will undoubtedly help Santorum erase his. Gingrich may end up on his own, which really means he will stiff his vendors. I hope Newt is man enough to pay the bills he racked up.

Newt is still campaigning:

Newt Gingrich to hold forum in Richardson [Texas this Monday] “Former House Speaker and Republican presidential contender Newt Gingrich is scheduled to hold a public forum Monday in Richardson.

The meeting is set for 4 p.m. at Pappasito's Cantina, 723 Central Expressway. Space is limited and the audience will be part of a 30-mintue question and answer period.”……..

Fred Grandy Interviews Newt Gingrich [Secure Freedom Radio] "Presidential candidate and former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich shares his foreign policy strategy for Middle East. Gingrich touches on every country of the region from Iran to Saudi Arabia to Turkey and finally Afghanistan and speaks about the policies that would be implemented in a Gingrich Presidency."

While you and the others on this thread are barring the front door against Romney, the Obamites and their supporters and their “neutrals” are sneaking in the back door enslaving and killing* your children.

While you and others on this site are serving as Romney's door porters, 55,000+ Lds missionaries -- like what Romney was -- are knocking on front doors trying to spiritually enslave your children and grandchildren.

Mormons' legalism is so great, ya gotta go back to the Pharisees to find an equivalency. And what was Jesus' assessment of the Pharisees? 15 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You travel over land and sea to win a single convert, and when you have succeeded, you make them twice as much a child of hell as you are. (Matthew 23:15)

Yeah, you be sure to train those next generations to vote for...
>.. the socialists (like Romney)
...& the pro-aborts (like Romney)
...& the liberal judge appointers (like Romney)
...& idolaters (like Romney)

That way, when it comes time, they, too, can vote for somebody to the left of Obama -- because that candidate will be bound to be an "improvement" vs. whoever the Dems throw up there...

[Where "lessers-of-two-evils" voting gets us as a nation...evil...pure evil...with conservatives openly confessing they endorse such self-confessed 'evil']

You will not understand his economic convictions unless you understand their source. His religion informs all of his political life. Ignore his religion and you ignore the man.
