Remembering that Republicans used what Hillary said against Obama....
- "We’re not going to beat Barack Obama with some guy who has Swiss bank accounts, Cayman Island accounts, owns shares of Goldman Sachs while it forecloses on Florida and is himself a stockholder in Freddie Mae and Freddie Mac while he tries to think the rest of us are too stupid to put the dots together to understand what this is all about."--Newt Gingrich
- "If you’re not sure about whether to support Mitt Romney, whether you’re liberal, or whether you’re very conservative, you ought to be excited, because he’s been on your side at one time or another. So I’m not completely misunderstood. I’m not as excited as I am desperate."--Louie Gohmert, Republican conference
- On healthcare: "Mitt Romney agreed with Barack Obama on every single thing that he did"--Rick Santorum
- "At some point he has to show that he has a vision of a better way. He can’t just say ‘The future is bleak, follow me.’ Because no one will."--Republican strategist Mark McKinnon
- "He(Romney) is the worst republican in the country to put up against Barack Obama"--Rick Santorum
- "We can’t nominate such a weak candidate. I’d love to be able to get one-on-one with Gov. Romney and expose the record that would be the weakest record we could possibly put up against Barack Obama."--Rick Santorum
- "He changed his position on virtually everything. I’m a moderate Republican, that’s what I am, so I’d be inclined to support someone like Mitt Romney. But all those changes give me pause."--Rudy Giuliani
- "I heard Governor Romney here called me an economic lightweight because I wasn’t a Wall Street financier like he was. Do you really believe this country wants to elect a Wall Street financier as the president of the United States? Do you think that’s the experience that we need? Someone who’s going to take and look after as he did his friends on Wall Street and bail them out at the expense of Main Street America."--Rick Santorum
- "If Mitt Romney can be pushed around, intimidated, coerced, co-opted by a conservative radio talk show host in Middle America, then how is he going to stand up to the Chinese? How is he going to stand up to Putin? How is he going to stand up to North Korea if he can be pushed around by a yokel like me? I don’t think Romney is realizing the doubts that this begins to raise about his leadership."--American Family Association spokesman Bryan Fischer
- "I’ve never seen a guy change his position so many times, so fast, on a dime."--Rudy Giuliani
- "[Mitt Romney is a] Massachusetts moderate who, in fact, is pretty good at managing the decay.” He’s “given no evidence in his years in Massachusetts of any ability to change the culture or change the political structure."--Newt Gingrich
- "Now, for Romney to believe that somebody’s grandmother is going to be so cut off she is going to self deport… He certainly shows no concern for the humanity of people who are already here… I think you have to live in worlds of Swiss bank accounts and Cayman Island accounts and automatic $20 million a year income with no work to have some fantasy this far from reality."--Newt Gingrich
- "Those of us who believe in free markets and those of us who believe that in fact the whole goal of investment is entrepreneurship and job creation, we find it pretty hard to justify rich people figuring out clever legal ways to loot a company, leaving behind 1,700 families without a job."--Newt Gingrich
- "There’s a real difference between venture capitalism and vulture capitalism. Venture capitalism we like. Vulture capitalism, no. And the fact of the matter is that he’s going to have to face up to this at some time or another, and South Carolina is as good a place to draw that line in the sand as any. That’s not what we’re looking for in a president of the United States. We’re looking for someone that knows how to build jobs, create jobs. And that’s what I’ve done in the state of Texas. So there’s no use trying to paper this over. That is a problem for Mitt, and he’s going to have to face it."--Rick Perry
- “I believe most Americans want their next President to remind them of the guy they work with, not the guy who laid them off.”~Mike Huckabee
- “Romney, supposedly the Republican most electable next November, is a recidivist reviser of his principles who is not only becoming less electable; he might damage GOP chances of capturing the Senate… Republicans may have found their Michael Dukakis…”~George Will
- “He spent more time on the road to Damascus than a Syrian camel driver. And we thought nobody could fill John Kerry’s flip-flops! … [Romney's record was] “anything but conservative until he changed all the light bulbs in his chandelier in time to run for President.”~Mike Huckabee
- “Bless his heart, I have respect for Mitt Romney, but I do not have respect for what he has done through this debt increase debate. He waited until it was a done deal that we would increase the debt ceiling and more money would be spent, more money would be borrowed and spent on bigger government, and then he came out and made a statement that he didn’t like the deal after all. You can’t defer an issue and assume that the problem is then going to be avoided.”~Sarah Palin

There's a 20% chance Romney will win, historically.
There's a 80% chance any other repub would beat Obama, historically.

Don't hate the messenger here. Call your delegates and give them this information, reminding them the goal isn't to fulfill Romney's wet dream of changing with the wind politically for 30 years in order to win the presidency.
Tell them the goal is to defeat obama - and statistically, "anybody but romney" will do exactly that.

Makes you wonder how a Perot "supporter" could possibly defend or support Obama. What could he possibly have in common with any democrat?
240 needs to sit this one out. Stay home 240. Just like you did in the primary.

If Newt won the primary would you have voted for him?
Yes or no?

Ron paul was behind by 85 points in my state, and said he was witndrawing. I would have had to change my registration.
For what? To make a point, I would have wasted time, gas, taxpayer dollars, etc?

And same in my state but guess what - I got off my ass and voted for him.

I had to look at the societal cost of voting for Ron Paul in a place he wasn't running anymore.
Gas money. Time. Use of county office. Paperwork to change things twice. I care about the environment. I'm not quite the "man caused global warming" like Palin and Romney and al gore, but I do believe driving 45 minutes to try to vote at my old station when not a registered GOP would have squandered resources.

Typical of a lazy obama drone.

no, what's that have to do with my post? yea, nothing.
From past posts several people here did like Newt.
I think people should refuse to vote for either Romney or Obama. Will that happen? No. Should I stop posting what I believe because it's unlikely? hell no...

That is my point.
The Paulbots are simply living in an alternate universe. He is not going to be on the ballot and is not even encouraging people to write his name in.
Santorum, Bachmann, Newt, Huntsman, Cain, et al ran for the GOP nomination and lost as well. Are there people screaming that they are going to write in "Cain" cause he lost? Santorum?
If Paul wanted to run 3rd party from the get go, he should have and many of us, myself included would have supported him as he would have had even a far better chance than Perot did in 1992. However, he lost. Was the deck stacked? Sure, but we are where we are for worse and even worse than that.
Sure it sucks, but this is politics not sunday church services.

Politicians are a bunch of dumb motherfuckers.

Truth! Romney is seriously pissing me off with all these missed opportunities.
Christie / Ryan probably would have been the best pic in terms of people willing to take the fight right about obama and shove his socialism and corruption right down his Kenyan neck.

yep> But you know what? If I saw a MFer robbing my corner store, I would have blocked his escape. You bet your pretty ass I would have. If his actions were egrigious (sp?) and crystal clear, I would have straight up tackled/blocked. If I'm not sure, I block his escape with body, make him run me over at full speed, at which point i'm justified to hold him until police arrive, as he just assaulted me.
Either way, you call me a lazy obama fanboy... but when shit hits the fan, I would have helped my fellow americans, and you just watched and took down license plate number cause it wasn't worth it to get involved.
But hey, I guess you help america by voting for guys down by 40 points who have forfeited your state, and I dont help them by trucking every fcking bad guy I see, and yes, I fucking woudl and you know it man.

it's an alternative universe because of people like you, not because of people like me. I answered your question now you answer my question
If I don't believe in or trust either Romney or Obama, why should I support either one? Why should I not push for an alternative no matter how unlikely? Why should I just fall in line against my own beliefs? Why is it that I'm nuts for not accepting to support someone I don't trust whatsoever but you're spot on for doing it? LOL, answer that.
It's not impossible or even illegal or something. It doesn't happen because of twits insisting it can't happen.

I don't trust romney either but i know the current calculus of obama being POTUS is a total FAIL
When he had all demo congress we got obamacare, bailouts, etc etc. when he had GOP congress we have a complete abdication of leadership and debt downgrade since he is a petulant child who would rather burn the house down than work w the other side.
So at this point its safe to say we have seen the best and worst of obama, and both suck terribly.
I am voting for the remote chance romeny will be better, nothing more or less and am fully prepared to be dissappointed

how does this remotely answer my questions? The only thing you just did was to say why you're voting for Romney which we all know since you've stated it over and over. Answer my actual questions please.
If you can't, I'll just assume I must have a valid point you're unwilling to address.

I dont support romeny other than to the extent that he will change the calculus in DC.
Either obama or romney will be the next potus - not ron paul, not gary johnson, not snookie, not roseann barr, obama or romney.
I don't have to "support" someone in order to want to vote for them to change shit up.
Obama is a complete failure and you all know it. By giving votes to anyone other than his main opponent, it is a vote to keep him in office.

I see you're still refusing to answer my question.... ::)
3333, you've given us all the reason why you're voting for Romney. In your thinking you have no choice. You have to vote for someone you don't like. You're getting in a line you don't want to be in because you feel that's your only option.
LOL and you are calling me a delusional bot? I'd like some explaination for why I'm the delusional one when out of us both i'm the one who's not willing to be forced to vote for someone I don't believe in.
I went with what I felt was the lesser of 2 evils in 08. I got in the line I didn't want to be in and I got skewered here by you and others for doing that. Now here you are telling me that's the only option a person has.

You are looking for a answer that does not exist. I gave you the answer - its just that you don't want to accept it.
Go vote for some third party person, all the more power to you. But if you dilute the anti-obama vote and he gets in, than just dont complain about it.

bullshit, you're missing the main question that you should be able to answer!!!! You're pointing a finger at me saying I'm in a fantasy land. You're calling me a bot.
You're saying I'm delusional. If you can't explain why I'm delusional for refusing to support either Obama or Romney, it's because you don't really believe that's delusional for a person.
So how about you stop suggesting I'm a bot living in fantasy land just because there is no way I'm going to cast my vote for someone I have zero faith in?

Oh, and now you're going to blame me if Obama wins ::)

No, but you are delusional if you think voting for a third party this election cycle is going to accomplish anything at all since there is no third party with even close to a chance like Perot did.
You are in Wyoming right? so it really does not matter I guess. Same with me in NYS.

Obama sucks and can't run on his disastrous record.
Romney is out of touch and I don't trust him but will vote for him.
It is what it is.

I will say what dissappointed obama voters say - in 2008 it was what i thought was a responsible choice given the options.
