I have said this on other threads, I will say it again. I will not vote for romney. HE is pro-abortion no matter how hard his supporters feverishly wish it not true. That said, I will vote for a child molester before I will vote for that child murdering used car salesman. GOP-e thought they could cram another of their crappy rinos down the throats of people who have principles- well, this time they are wrong. They chose poorly and I do not care how much it bugs the ABO people. I will not vote for a man who will allow little innocent children to be murdered in their mothers womb.. Call me what you want- I do not care— IF it will help you I am a fool, I am an ignorant hick from the backwoods of North Carolina- I am stupid.. I have been called all of these things , but you know, I wear those names with honor from the likes of you who would allow the murder of babies to make a political point. HAVE AT IT.
One other seldom mentioned issue that bothers me about Romney is he protested in FAVOR of the war in Nam but HE didn’t go..hell NO!
•Teenage Romney takes unpopular stance in favour of south-east Asian war
•But his status as ‘Mormon missionary’ exempted him from the draft
•Future GOP presidential candidate dressed in smart, preppy clothes
•Romney’s father George was the Governor of Michigan at the time
I am reminded of a cartoon I saw recently. It hows a man under a bridge living in a cardboard box and his family is sitting around a fire with him as he says,”Remember kids, no matter what you must stand by your principles no matter the consequence. What good is the home, car and everything else we used to have without principle.”
The road running under the bridge had tanks with the Obama emblem on them streaming towards a distant city which appeared to be going up in smoke.
Principles indeed, but at what cost? The Oak tree will not bend and in a high wind will snap while a willow will bend and survive to see another day, a day where things can be different. Using this thought consider a Romney victory and a strong Conservative grass roots movement to keep the pressure on him in an attempt to keep him in line. Politicians are always running for the next election and the threat of a primary challenge in 2016, if it is serious will I believe keep a man like Romney in line.
Do not underestimate the power of the much denigrated (by the media) Tea Party. They are alive and well and represent more of a state of mind then a political organization and as such are almost impossible to quantify. What occurred in 2010 can occur again.
