We, the voters, rejected him last time around for good reason.
No, it is not Mitt Romney’s turn to get the GOP nomination. If you expect there to be a Republican Party or even a United States in the future, it had better NEVER be Mitt Romney’s turn.
Stop trying to foist him on us. We don’t care whether Democrats and a few rich New England and Beltway RINOs think he’s electable. It is pointless to “defeat” Obama by replacing him with an Obama that has an (R) after his name!
We can’t stand Mitt Romney. No, not because he professes to be a Mormon, but because he’s a bad man and a bad candidate whose only interest is in promoting himself. No matter what he says, Mitt Romney’s only real object of worship is himself.
How We REALLY Feel
Some of us merely despise Mitt Romney, while the rest of us hate him with the white-hot thermonuclear fury of a thousand suns. Don’t even ask where I fit on that spectrum; suffice it to say that, if Mitt Romney gets the nomination, we will emigrate and make a new start on some foreign shore.
Just for starters, we hate Obamneycare and all its pomps and all its works. We hate what Mitt Romney did at Bain Capital, which he used as a vehicle for gutting US companies and shipping vast numbers of US jobs overseas. We will not let him do any more of that to us.
We Know a Sinking Ship…
…when we see one, and the US is hemorrhaging fuel and taking on water. We know which people are hacking huge holes in the hull, while we of the Tea Party are desperately striving to patch it up and bail out the water. We are getting very tired and more angry than you are capable of imagining.
And no, not all of the saboteurs of the ship of state are Democrats, Occubaggers, SEIU goons, Soros operatives, or self-proclaimed Communists.
The very worst are the “establishment Republicans,” a/k/a RINOs, such as Karl Rove, Grover Norquist, Chris Christie, and Mitt Romney. RINOs implement the leftist/ecofreak/big-government/pro-jihadi agenda just slowly enough that most people won’t notice it. They have no respect for the US Constitution or for your life, liberty, and property, but they know how to mouth the right phrases so that you won’t notice what they are doing to you.
We all know about the boiling frog analogy. But THIS frog knows what’s up. This frog is getting ready to jump to pleasanter quarters if any RINO wins the nomination. This frog is also warning YOU that the temperature is rising and that you have only a little time left to do something about it.

The bar had to be lowered repeatedly for him. Now it is around the height that will give it to him. After he’s got it he’ll ignore the American tax payer even more
Romney is an International Socialist. He would kill off Conservatism.
Spot on!
Listen, if Romney is the nominee we vote for him -- to do otherwise would be suicidal.
@ Speranza:
But we have to stop him in the primaries. That way, this disaster doesn’t become President.
We will not nominate him.
Period.

I see your point, but we must stop him now.
The Party Hierarchy needs to sit back & let the voters decide who the nominee’s going to be.

If I was younger and Romney became President, I would move to Colombia or Australia.
A Romney Presidency means that in 2016, we will get President Cuomo.

If Romney is the nominee, Obama wipes him out. Then Obama wipes us out.
The only hope is an Avenging Angel with a sharp sword and the courage to cut the spending.
All the social engineering falls away without the money.
Take away the social services bonanza, the illegal immigrants stay home and otherwise lazy citizens have to get a job, however menial.
Take away gov’t funding and abortion and birth control become personal issues and not public ’causes’.
Less money to spend on paying farmers not to grow and oil companies not to drill. Less money for loan guarantees (investment guarantees) to political insiders with failing projects.
All politics used to be local. Needs to be again. The nominee needs to ride a single salient point to the White House and stick with it.
People will vote for someone they disagree with to some extent if they agree on what is most important. Frame the campaign as I’ve laid out above.
All other issues, while valid, are secondary to spending and much easier to resolve without so much money propping them up.
@ Poteen:
Well said!
@ Rodan:
that whole gender thing for inanimate objects is tough for a lot of folks to get.
Why the END OF THE WORLD tone? Romney is not a conservative, but an International Socialist? How about looking at all of our candidates honestly? Romney is the consummate politician. Do most people want abortion? Then Romney is for abortion. Does the majority begin to want no abortion, then Romney is for no abortion.
Is he running for Governor in one of the Bluest states? Then Romney moves to the blue side. Running for President of the United States, then Romney becomes more center-right. I do not worry about him that much because he is not a devoted ideologue. If he gets elected and Conservatives remain vocal, and we elect more conservative congress-critters, and more conservative senators, they will hold Romney right of center. Not like Obama who no matter the evidence will keep instituting America-destroying policies. The yelling the sky is falling serves nothing except emotionalism. Any, and I mean any, current GOP candidate will look like a cure for terminal cancer as opposed to Obama. By all means do all you can to defeat Romney in the Primaries, best way right now is to send Cain money, and to send him advice to stop saying off-the-cuff stupid things. Or maybe the dumb Texan will wake up? Who knows at this point?
@ Rodan:
In my own little fit of ‘class war’ jealousy, I’d like to see a few Doctorates in women’s or minority studies having to dig some holes or pick some corn. That is justice.
@ Jehu:
It’s probably too early in the process for any candidate to stake out a position and stick to it. My problem with Romney, as you’ve noted, is his leaning inconsistency. He is what he is and I don’t think that is what is needed. We need a fighter with a big veto pen, not a negotiator.
One other thing. Romney most certainly will not “kill conservatism.” That’s nonsense. Carter didn’t, Clinton didn’t, GHWB/GWB didn’t (contrary to beliefs popular among some) and Obama sure as hell hasn’t. So good luck trying to sell that meme…
Said it before and I’ll say it again -- I’ll vote for the proverbial ham sandwich if it’s running against Obama, and I won’t stay home rending my garments and pouring ashes on my head to prove my purity. I’ve got to live in the real world, and so do my kids and my grandson. And right now, we need a break ASAP.
@ Jehu:
Thank you, for that injection of sanity.
@ Mike C.:
Romney will be a disaster. We will have an even farther Left Democrat 2016.
President Romney=President Cuomo 2016.
@ Jehu:

Dream on with your fantasy. Was Bush kept Center-Right by a Republican Congress 2002-2206? ope. GOP leaders roll over for their Prez. Romney, Boehner and McConnell will be the unholy Leftist trinity. They will push Leftist legislation and will marginalize Conservatives. Then in 2014 Democrats take back Congress because the economy will still suck with Liberal Republican policies. Then 2016, say hello to President elect Andrew Cuomo.
Enjoy your Progressive Republicans.
What is the difference of 22 trillion and 26 trillion when noone will lend you anymore money??
@ Rodan:Compared to the alternative algore not so bad.
KEEP YOUR MITTS OFF THE NOMINATION!
Good grief. Romney’s not the devil here. Is he ideal? No. Will I vote for him in the primaries? No. But if he wins the nomination and ultimately the presidency it will not be the end of conservatism. I don’t know where anyone gets that conclusion.
What I would really like is for Bachman, Santorum, Huntsman and Johnson to stop with the ego-feeding and exit stage right. Let’s put it this way guys -- you are, quite frankly, being ignored in the debates and you’ve been mathematically eliminated from the playoffs. I’m not going to ask Paul to leave because well, he won’t. I’m a little iffy on Newt -- he does bring the “smartz” to the debates and I do love the way he chastises the media. Especially since these clowns think somehow it’s a good idea for CNN, NBC and MSNBC to be associated with these debates in any way.
In the end, when it becomes a two-person race, I see Perry/Cain picking up the Perry/Cain/Bachman/Santorum/Gingrich support and I see Mitt picking up the Huntsman/Johnson voters. I have no idea where Ron Paul’s people are going to go.
But the herd needs to thin. And soon.
@ Speranza:We can’t sit out this election. Президент Обама cannot be re elected or we may not even have a country.
I voted for McCain even though McCain rubbed our faces in the sh… (read without the ellipese). At least Romney will not rub our faces in the sh…(read without the ellipses) as McCain did.
And I voted for McCain because I knew that Президент Обама would be as bad as he is. He is not suprising me in the wreckage he has visited on our country.
