I think we’re fixing to see a surge leftward from the GOP.

Should be easy for Democrats to vote for Willard. It’s not like he’s a Conservative (or a real Republican).

They are denial, just as they were in November 2010. Their dreams of 40 years of democrat party rule will be relegated to the ash heap of history.

The problem this time around is the Romney/Ryan ticket is running more conservative than the Reagan/Bush ticket was in 1980. For example, refer to Reagan's convention speech of 1980 when he vowed to fight for women's liberation and talked continuously of reaching across the aisle to find common ground with Democrats. Also, Bush was much more liberal than Romney's running mate Paul Ryan.

Still, Romney/Ryan come into this convention 2 points ahead instead of the 9 points behind that Reagan/Bush were so maybe Romney does not have to pander quite so much to the liberals.

I'm thinking Romney/Ryan will be able to win easily on their conservative message as they should capture 98% of the conservative vote and at least 70% of the Independent vote. If we can get just 10% of the Democrats (those working class blue-collar types who are fed up with Obama), it will turn into a landslide similar to 1980.

Then why did they go for Reagan?

I know Mittens is not even 1/4 the conservative Reagan was, but people are really hurting out there.

I’m talking about a good number of intelligent, caring, middle-class Democrats who are a soft nudge away from casting their vote for Romney.

Given the spittle-laced, psychotic rage most Demonrats possess and display on a daily basis, I’m not sure these people exist. About the closest I can imagine are the countless remaining 75+ FDR-loving Democrats who know what will happen to them under Obamacare, and their votes will only be out of self protection instead of any interest in saving the country.

Some are trying to lie Romney into being Reagan when the fact is, Reagan democrats voted for Reagan largely on the social issues Romney hides from.

My thoughts are these, probably very different then most of the Freeper posts on this site. IMHO, there should absolutely be a “Democrats For Romney/Ryan”!!!

Why? Because millions of registered Democrats will be voting for Romney/Ryan, come November, including about 15-20% of Black Americans.

The clear handwriting is on the wall for all objective folks to see. Fact is: Obama/Biden have failed the country, they have failed Democrats, they have really failed all of Black Americans, they have failed the entire USA population. No one is attending their rallies, No money is pouring in, no sane Democrat candidate runnig for office in November wants to be see near either Obama or Biden.

I say, give Democrats a soap box opportunity to help us all get rid of these un-American, incompetents, would be america destroyers!!!

32 years ago, this was a different country. There was still a large swath of Conservative Democrat voters. Most of those people are either dead or have since become Republicans.

mitt splits the liberal vote. I've been saying it ever since NPR was carrying his water during the primaries.

These dims take themselves so seriously. Now they are facing the prospect of voting for President Kardashian and Joe the Clown. I think it is sheer embarrassment on their part because they will never vote for the GOP and are stuck.

Every campaign, various campaign workers are urged to identify former members of the opposite party who are switching their allegiance. In 2004, for example, all they wanted were warm bodies who had voted Democrat at least once before, to join “Democrats for W”.

This is the same thing. It means little. Both parties do it, hoping to peel away voters with an example to follow and then publicizing the *defections*. SOP.

When Obama wins, I want to hear just how proud some of these FR’s are to have not voted at all or voted third party because they were conscientious objectors toward anything but their view of perfection... for want of perfection hope is lost...

I have to assume these people are not feeling the effects of the Obama depression since they either not in the workforce, on retirement, get a govt check or something.

Someone would have to be bats%^ crazy to want 4 more years of this depression.
