A ‘real’ FredHead will do what Fred was trying to do; the BEST for this country. Staying home in a snit because the remaining candidates are not as good as Fred won’t do that. Do you think Fred will refuse to vote in the election because he doesn’t necessarily agree with the views of the Republican nominee? I don’t believe he will, because he knows what the outcome will be; something even worse for this country than a RINO.
Fred is a professional Republican politician. I am not; I am a conservative. Of course he will support the Republican nominee. I won’t, unless the nominee understands that conservatism is an integrated political philosophy, not a checklist of unrelated issue positions to be taken as necessary for pandering to particular interest groups.
Romney’s entire life history demonstrates that he doesn’t subscribe to or even understand what conservatism is all about. I would rather have an overt liberal in the White House so we can all be wholeheartedly in opposition than a covert liberal some conservatives will feel constrained to support. Yes that means I would prefer Hillary.
Don’t talk to me about judges. I expect more Souters from Romney and more Breyers from Hillary. Who cares? In fact, I’ll go for what’s behind door #2. At least Breyer has a brain. Souter is scary. He’s Norman Bates with a law degree.
Don’t talk to me about the “War on Terror.” Romney couldn’t even confront three raving lunatics on the MA SJC and tell them that the MA state government wasn’t issuing marriage licenses to same sex couples as long as he was Governor. Is that the sort of guy who can defend America against the nutjobs who want us all dead?
Mitt’s got nice hair. He wears beautiful suits and wears them as well as anyone since Cary Grant. But he is a weenie and a liberal weenie at that. Who’s going to be more agressive in the world, Romney or the harpy from New York via Arkansas and Illinois? My money’s on Hillary.
If Romney is the nominee I won’t vote. Ditto Giuliani. Either McCain or the Dogpatch dipstick would drive me to vote for Hillary. Neither one of them has the minimal intellectual equipment necessary to be an adequate POTUS. Hillary may be evil but she is not stupid. Evil can be contained, stupidity in the White House right now could easily prove fatal.
