My last choices were between Romney and Ron Paul. Maybe Newt can pull a miracle, or there's a brokered convention. I'm still ABO!

McCain ran more effectively in the primaries in 2008 than he did in 2000.

That's not saying much. I didn't even know he was a candidate in 2000.

I will never vote for a liberal. And that includes Romney. In fact I am/will actively campaign against him.

Hanson says this “recovery is anemic.”

I’ve been wondering for a while now why everyone keeps calling it a “recovery” at all!!?

11. Obama and the Democrats are so completely self-deluded inside the bubble that they continue to campaign as if OWS actually did represent “the 99%”.

12. And even if they believe that balls-to-the-wall Socialism is a winning formula, they are offering a half-assed, bolluxed-up version that will never convince the true believers.

Call me crazy, but I think if Obama is on the ballot in November, it will be a blowout of epic proportions, that makes the Democrat losses in 2010 look like nothing but a Preview of Coming Attrations.

Far more likely, IMHO, the Democrats pull a Torricelli Switch and get Obama off the ballot. Nobody is going to want to ride his coat-tails to defeat.

I predict a big Obama loss. Romney just needs to remain an “acceptable” candidate and point out what a bad job Obama has done, and he should win easily.

Romney will win all of the Bush states, plus PA and WI, and will challenge in many other blue states. He should win comfortably.

It would be unprecedented for Obama to win. No president has ever been re-elected with such poor support numbers. It seems that much of America has Obama-fatigue.

In 2008, there were at least plausible reasons for the average sheeple American to take a gamble on Mr. Hope-n-Change. He ran on the heels of an unpopular incumbent, an unpopular war, an economic collapse, an incompetent GOP opponent, and a fawning, adoring media that refused to vet him and actively promoted him. He ran as a movement, and a lot of suckers bought it.

He can’t hide this time. Granted, the American electorate is capable of being stupid (that’s how we ended up with this clown in the first place). But we usually self-correct.

That’s why Romney was not necessary. We should have nominated a true conservative. This was the year to do it.

President Romney would be far worse than Obama. At least, the RINO’s won’t support Obama’s programs. The RINO’s will support Obama-like programs pushed by a President Romney.

Romney must be defeated at all costs.

1) Romney is a more experienced and better candidate than he was in 2008. That often happens after a run or two.

Yeah!

He don't have that hard hitting McCain to bedevil him THIS time!

Sadly it looks like Romney’s it! Being here in New England for the last 30 years, Romney is the most conservative that could get elected in Mass for any job, he is in fact more conservative than Scott Brown, which most here understand isn’t saying much. I can’t in good concience give him money, or advance him to anyone. I will do what I did when McCain won the primary, I voted for Sarah Palin not John McCain! Here’s hoping Romney pick’s a real conservative as VP. I will vote for the VP instead of Romney.

VDH is pretty much spot on. The Obama ‘hope and change’ has morphed in to hopeless and unchanged. It is now no hope but we still do want to change - from Obama.

My problem with Romney isn’t that he might not defeat Obama; it’s that he will. GOP primary voters were in a unique position to pick more than a candidate this cycle. They were really picking the next president. Any Republican who isn’t named Ron Paul could beat Obama. It’s truly a shame that they picked the one guy in the field who’s the most similar to Obama. They’ve squandered a historic opportunity.

One advantage on Ronney’s side. He is known as a millionairre businessman. People I’m talking with (who are not political news junkies) seem to think he is a sensible man who can get our economy back on track. I think the country needs to cool down on both side of the track and Romney with his middle of the road - who knows what he believes - style may be attractive to the huge chunk of the population who’d rather pull a blanket over their head and say, “don’t rock the boat!” Obama has given them 3 years of a lot of boat rocking and Romney may be a steadying hand.

I don’t like him. But in the end I know ABO will be my vote.

I still believe Palin would be a better president.

With all respect to Mr. Hanson, to me it is NOT anemic, it is nonexistent.

The Conservative Cause is clearly served by an Obama re-election rather than a Romney win.

A Right leaning/Conservative Congress can easily remain united behind an Obama re-election....whereas the same Congress will be sliced and diced by the RINOS if Romney is in the White House.

The Powers That Be fully understand this....
