Santorum’s finished.
Anything is preferable to Obama.
Even Santorum.
My guy is still Newt.
Would you rather have a known enemy or a backstabbing “friend”?
I have hated Romney as intensely as anyone over the last few years, and I have hated him from the beginning. I don’t like his politics, and his personal manner is disturbing to me because I feel like he’s telling me exactly what I want to hear. You can check my posting history on that.
As long as there was any chance that anyone but Romney could possibly go up against Obama, I supported anyone but Romney. But anything, even Romney, is better than Obama in my opinion. I don’t know how anyone could let Obama win by not voting for the Republican nominee. I mean, I hate Romney, but Romney did go through the process and he is going to be the nominee. The alternative is much, much worse. And Conservatives that can let Obama waltz back into the White House, I almost understand them, but I can’t really understand them.
I’ve wanted Newt since 2008 anyway, but wow...I just lost any respect I ever had for Santorum.
Rick Santorum: “Sure, I can come up with something every bit as stupid as Eric Fehrnstrom. Let me think a minute ... I got it! ‘If Mitt’s the Republican nominee, then you might as well vote for Obama!’ How’s that?”
Good grief. There are “hot mike” moments, and then there are moments when you douse your own mike in lighter fluid, hold it over an open fire, and then plunge it down your throat.
Santorum has now jumped the shark.
I now support Newt...who doesn’t stand a chance of catching up. :(
Abominable....I am stunned...wow....
Wow. He has lost his mind.
While I don’t think this was a politically smart thing to say, I understand his reasoning.
“Better the devil you know, to the devil you don’t”
He is right! I will never vote for Romney! Romney will lose big time to Hussein. No more Rinos.
I think our only hope at this point is to throw all our $upport behind outfits like SarahPAC and revive the TEA party so we can lobby, influence, force, steer, cajole, and convince the eventual nominee and Congress to stay on the RIGHT course and buy us some time to undo all the statist damage that has been done to our Republic, while we get a real leader and President in 2016.
And apparently many here on FR agree ... those that refuse to vote for Romney in the general election if he gets the GOP nomination.
Milt is (fill in the blank, I'm too lazy). But I don't think he hates this country and the concept of “America” like Obama clearly does. That's my limit on non-negative script I can conjure up regarding Milt.
Is Santorum serious? Well, now there's two GOP POTUS candidates I'll never vote for.
This is the proverbial “STAR TREK MIND RAPE BY AN EARTH PIMP “ Ping.
The only thing worst than nominating another RINO is Obama's re-election.
There are plenty of rising star conservatives out there. It's a long haul. Goldwater to Reagan was 16 years.
We are now in the danger zone, many have said that going over 50%+1 of Americans dependent upon the public teat will rob the rest of us. Elect a strong conservative Congress, hold their feet to the fire, and Romney Administration will know which way the winds blow.
The play know is for him to pick a Conservative VP who will carry on in 8 years. Reagan choose poorly with George HW Bush. Romney can't make the same mistake.
Who should it be?
Wow, Santorum really knows how to scuttle his own campaign. No way would I support anyone this desperate. I’m not excited about any of the GOP candidates, but any one of them is far preferable to Obama. These primary candidates just can’t handle the fact that Romney is kicking their butts. The constant crying about Romney’s money was bad enough, but now they have to go out kicking and screaming like this? Pathetic.
Oh lord!
You might as well vote for Ron Paul, for cryin' out loud!
Why is it Romney and Santorum both keep walking right over the top of the dangers facing this country as if all they care about is getting the top guy's job instead of fixing this nation.
ARGH! GOD HELP US!
