    Romney has been known to flip his positions apparently, which makes him a scary candidate for the far right. His Romneycare scares a lot of them off too. That is why Perry was winning so big before he did any debates. And now, well, Perry did debates lol. So now all they got is Cain, but no one has a clue really what Cain "knows" besides what he studies up on before his prepped questions. It's why they cried for Christie so bad.

    In other words, there isn't a good candidate right now for the far right.

    I won't vote for Mitt Romney under any circumstances. If he gets the nomination, I will sit out the election.

    This is the type of crap I just don't understand. Look, I'm further to the right than Attila the Hun, but you got to deal in reality here. I'm not all that happy that Romney isn't the most Conservative fella out there, but the alternative of having obot serve 4 more years is frightening to say the least.

    According to the polls...Romney is the only Republican in the race that can beat obot head-on. Everyone on the planet knows that America's #1 problem is the economy. Remember..."its the economy stupid" slogan. Well, give me the name of any of the candidates more suitable to handle the economy than the businessman Romney? Go head, I'll give you time to think about it.

    Of course a ron paul will never happen, he's too weak on border security and foreign affairs. Romney is the man, and the only guy I see beating obamunism at the moment. Although I would still like to see Gingrich continue his surge--perhaps even being picked as Romney's veep. If not than Rubio would fit in there rather nicely.

    I don't trust him too much. He flip flips a lot depending on what is best for him politically; kind of like Obama.

    the reason why romney is their best hope is because they have noticed the country moved left from bush so they are trying to reach independents with a republican who comes from a state with socialist health care and used to be pro abortion

    also mormon which the baptists hate

    Agreed 100%. Conservatism is a failure, it was an epic failure under George Dumbya Bush, who was easily our nation's worst president. Even the Republican establishment quietly acknowledge this, which is why they want their nominee in 2012 to be a liberal from a blue state.

    It will be hilarious if the GOP chooses Romney, who is pro-choice, pro-gun control, pro-amnesty, pro-individual healthcare mandate, pro-Wall Street bailouts, pro-stimulus, pro-man made global warming. Basically, the only difference between Obama and Romney is the flip-flopping Mormon was born rich, has flip-flopped on all his beliefs, and thinks he wears magic undies. :)

    Interesting that when all the facts are meshed out by historians...Bush may very well be listed as one of our top 5 best presidents. His first 7 years in office got us to enjoy a less than 5% unemployment rating, extremely low gas prices, millions of new jobs, a renewed determination to protect America from further foreign terrorism-despite having to deal with the 9/11 terrorists that came to America illegally under Clinton's watch. The 9/11 terror plot was also responsible for the immediate loss of 1 million jobs, but it didn't take Bush long to remedy that blip in the road.

    It was only going into the year 2007 when the dems took control of congress that Bush became a lame duck president and thus made the huge mistake of becoming a RINO or a liberal in sheep's clothing did the economy start to fail. Unfortunately, Bush's bailout schemes played right into the liberal's playbook, and thus he repeated the mistake of his father when his dad said..."Read my lips no new taxes", and so the downfall began.

    What's even more interesting then Bush's final two year cave in to liberalism was that the libs of today (including yourself) see no problem in how obamunism has quadrupled the national debt and adopted Bush's bailout mistake. Take that Hallloween mask off fella, for your not fooling anyone.

    Translation : All who don't worship at the neo-con alter of big government, privilege and subsidy for the titans of finance, and endless wars around the globe, are too "radical".

    That is why the dems in charge today are so revered by the supposed liberals. They are just like the neo-cons of the Bush regime that preceded them.

    they should build a Bush altar and worship.

    admit it, you love war, endless public wealth transfers to the big banking ruling class and total government domination of your life.

    tell me how the big government, big bank backing, war mongering Obama differs from Bush ?

    You love Bush, but just don't know it yet, as you are too busy having your opinions and words formed for you by the droning idiots wearing suits that you see on the TV

    While I basically agree with you, tell me if you think Bush was this big government hack during his first 6 years when as I said...our economy was booming.

    I cant believe you called bush smart, he couldnt think his way out of a paper bag. And I agree Romney would have been a better candidate in 2008, but I think he would have lost because of the anti-bush backlash.And I think he will have a better chance to win this time because he wasnt nominated in 2008, if he had lost last time, he might be seen as damaged goods.

    Of course Romney is electable. Problem is he wouldn't do anything worthwhile as President. I think his supporters are looking too hard at the game itself and have lost track of the entire reason the game is played in the first place.
    Romney is just like Obama. And I don't just mean where he falls on the spectrum. Romney is a hack scam-artist with no ideals. His priority is to get elected, and he will say and do anything to reach that goal.
    If he were to get elected, we'd see nothing but 4 more years of the same ol' crap. Having a Republican in the White House means that Republicans will take the blame for all the failures. That's a major down-side. So what's the up-side?

    If it comes down to choosing between Obama and Romney, I'm voting for Obama.

    Would you be talking about the last year of Clinton's tenure when we had a recession?

    Would you be talking about the last year of Clinton's tenure when we had a recession, or when Bush inherited the 9/11 terrorists from Clinton's lax border security policies, or both?

    creating a credit boom based around housing, to reflate the boom created in the nineties is a poor substitute for an economy, and equally as stupid.

    MY REASONS TO VOTE FOR ROMNEY.:)

    10 guys/Gals sitting on the plains of Africa.
    A pride of Lions shows up.

    The lead lion says.."dinner" and leads the charge. There is one climbable tree 100 yards away.

    Romney wins the foot race and climbs just out of reach..and survives.
    The rest perish and get eaten.

    Newt is 1st..a fat guy with lots of baggage..he cant even run 20 ft.

    Bachmann is next..she tries to reason with the head lioness saying " I have raised 26 kids..I am just like you ".It might work in IOWA but not anywhere else.

    Paul..Poor Paul..Being old and smarter than the rest..he tries to lay down and play dead..thinking the lions might not see him as food if he doesn't insult their native instinct to chase the prey.It works! Until a weaker lion sees he is just playing a dead animal..and breaks Paul's neck.

    The 2 Ricks.. They stay together..form a team..and die fighting ..they saw from the beginning that lions are stronger than men and they must fight as a team to survive. The only trouble is they didn't have the right weapons for the fight.

    The others die alone..picked off..they never had a chance.

    How did Romney win the race..make it when others failed.

    First he was prepared..unlike Cain ..it wasn't his 1st encounter with the Lions..he knew he couldn't out run them from past experiences..He knew from studying the past that lions dont reason well.He knew that if he could out wit out last his fellow politicians that the lions would be well fed..and might get full and quit chasing him.

    Romney used his past experiences to out play the lions..he didn't mind the attentions the others drew to themselves..Romney knew he could stay focused and defeat the head lion.. He didn't complain about the lion power and speed..he only had to beat the others to have a chance at survival.

    He knew when lions are fat and lazy they can be defeated.
    Obama and the Democrats are the lions..fat and full of confidence after Obama's election they devoured the weak..until now..
    They are threatened and growing hungry once again.

    The only guy that can defeat them is not a perfect man..he is not the savior many seek. He waffles and say what he need to say to reach that tree .He knows from last time he needs more than JUST THE FAR RIGHT to defeat the lions.
    He is the middle..but needs to reassure the right he isn't against them or the center democrats.
    He is against the bad lions.

    Romney is not the perfect man..
    But..

    He might be the BETTER man.

    If that's the choice, I'll vote for some fringe candidate or not vote at all. Of course, there's the possibility of Ron Paul as an Independent, whom I would readily vote for.

    I will not cast a vote for more of the same!!

    Not really interested in another Bush I/Clinton/Bush II/Obama clone, just because he can "win", especially since his ability to "climb out of reach" depends upon the establishment media outlets' ability to do the sell.
