In Case You Don't Like Romney...
Columnist Andrew McCarthy gives us what probably is the most important question regarding the upcoming presidential election
If Romney wins the nomination, as seems very likely, I will enthusiastically support his candidacy. For my friends who may have hesitation on that score, Id just ask you to keep four things in mind:
1.. Justice Scalia just turned 78
2.. Justice Kennedy will turn 78 later this year
3.. Justice Breyer will be 76 in August
4.. Justice Ginsburg turned 81 about a week ago and has had cancer twice.
Whoever we elect as president in November is almost certainly going to choose at least one and maybe more new members of the Supreme Court in addition to hundreds of other life-tenured federal judges, all of whom will be making momentous decisions about our lives for decades to come.
If you dont think it matters whether the guy making those calls is Mitt Romney or Barack Obama, I think youre smokin something funky .
So for anybody who is thinking of not voting because your favorite didnt get nominated, or writing in a candidate who can't win ... just imagine this possibility:
'SUPREME COURT JUSTICE ERIC HOLDER'
Did that get your attention!
Get a mop Linda.
I have a feeling that is how romney talks to his wife.
Goode is all over the map, and nobody is making him do it.
It’s all Goode.
Indeed..I would crawl over glass to vote to
*BEAT OBAMA*
No third party votes for me
You will get bloody.
Well, said Linda.
Somebody’s got to do It, Me, The Wife the Kids the Neighbors..
You know Obama wont do it.
You get the mop and I’ll jump the SOB while he is smirking.
That’s funny.
It’s probably how Romney talks to his illegal alien house staff.
Abortion is a bugaboo.
Since when is the intentional death of a baby a bugaboo?
Your view of abortion is disgusting.
You get the mop and Ill jump the SOB while he is smirking
Do you mean romney or obama or maybe a romney paid internet blogger?
but I will do what I have to do....
DOWN WITH BAMEY AND HOLDER...
I’m against it, but it’s a moral matter not a Gov matter.
When you tie the gov all up in moral
matters you find yourself in he positions were in now. Freekin Gov demanding Gay marriage. It aint their place.
Let’s let the Gov govern the economy freely and lets let the Church remain private.
Now we got gay marriage on the table with the Gov forcing Church doctrine.
I mean Romney and Obama.
And some SOBs here will prosecute me for boppin their heads.
Actually, we have one outcome, Obama or Romney.
We have many choices of candidates to vote for.
Your Bugaboo.
Believe me I get it but it’s YOUR Bugboo
Believe me I understand, and I feel deeply about it, but you wont win a national election on that now that its been ingrained for 50 years.
You can lean on it, everyone feels the pain but that’s not the single issue in the world today.
Yeah we gotta fight, but single button issues lose elections.
No, you do not.
When you slough off abortion (the intention killing of babies) as just a bugaboo, demonstrates you do not get it.
You apparently support Romney who promotes abortion, another demonstration you do not get it.
HOWEVER
his appointments would still set back the conservative cause for decades. How many Souters and O'Conners would he be able to seat in 4 years? In 8? The GOP has, yet again, squandered a golden opportunity to repair the damage done to this country by the Democrats.
Abortion is not a single issue, it is one of many issues.
I do not vote for liberals.
When I say Bugaboo I mean this is your hot button issue. I don’t say that this is no an important issues or lessen your position upon it.
I am only saying this is a hot button issue for you, and I understand that.
It hurts for all of us.
Lil ahole Dems would have you believe it’s just a financial option
You’re confusing “conservative” with “Republican.” Apparently you think that a Republican is automatically entitled to a conservative’s vote. Some of us don’t. :^)
