Uh, not quite. Romney basically destroyed any candidate who did not self-destruct first. He engaged in scorched-earth politics that makes re-uniting the party all that much harder, especially after the GOP-E knifed Sarah Palin in the back in 2008 and Tea Party candidates in 2010. He was a phenomenally unpopular putative favorite and that was reflected in his low percentages early on.

The GOP-E has shown they will fight the Tea Party harder than they will fight Democrats, yet demand the Tea Party join them in taking out Obama.

So until the GOP-E decides that the Tea Party is more than an ally of temporary convenience, they are going to have a hell of a time selling their RINO du jour.

And that is what we are seeing on FR. Trying the hard-sell the party unity theme to Romney critics - after the GOP-E showed that party unity meant bupkis to them in 2010 - aint' gonna cut it. And you're a fool for thinking the time-worn rose-colored glasses party unity sales pitch is gonna work after what the GOP-E has wrought upon the party.

True, yet so what? The November choice will be 0bama or Romney. When you come back to reality let me know. On second thought don't bother. I'm tired of discussing stuff with people who live in some sort of delusional world where a true conservative can come in at the last minute and win the presidency. As I said 0 or Romney is going to be the choice, and those who rightly think Romney is a liberal will have to decide if they want to vote for a third party and help 0 win or vote for Romney who still might not win.

0 has about 40% of the vote locked in already. The parasites love him. The blacks who voted for him because he's black will still vote for him since he's still black. Those with the occutard mentality will vote for him because they're too lazy and too cowardly to steal on their own. The election will come down to the "independents" and they aren't going to vote for some guy they've never heard of. So Goode might make the best president in the last 50 years, but Romney is going to be the only 0 alternative with a chance of beating the dog turd currently contaminating the white house.
