You continue to dream, PO!!! Ron Paul is not equipped to be the POTUS, he is having the time of his life campaigning and the returning to his secure seat in the congress.

I would love to have a perfect candidate that could do all the things that we all desire, however he/she doesn't exist in this world. Mitt is the best available, with any hope of being elected.

Ron and Newt are pipe dreams, not that good of candidates, plus neither has had any possibility of election.

Mitt has had to play politics to get elected, but I believe he is a man of character, that will rise to the top when elected. His conservative, Mormon faith will serve the country well, because it contains many of the values that are common among conservatives.

I hate the negatives of political campaigns, but unfortunate it is the nature of the beast in our culture.

I never said anything about Paul winning the election. I just shared a campaign strategy I heard about.

I'd tell Romney where he could go for his lies, but the Bible already says, "... and all LIARS shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone.."

Re: Ron Paul Winning Delegates With Santorum Suppo

Newt Gingrich: “It’s interesting, in Colorado this weekend, the delegates chosen were 13 for Romney and 23 not for Romney, and I don’t think any of the national news media picked it up yet. The inevitability train didn’t seem to get across the Rockies. I’m campaigning here, I’m campaigning in North Carolina, in Delaware, in Pennsylvania, tomorrow, I’ll be in New York for two days this week. I think we still have the right to have the last conservative standing, and make the case for conservatism.”

Good for him. He sure would have received some calls.

Rick Santorum declines to endorse Mitt Romney

Rick Santorum pointedly declined Monday night to endorse presumptive Republican nominee Mitt Romney, instead pointing out that he has not backed a candidate in the race and urging his supporters to vote their conscience.

He will then be purged of his sin!!! As I said, I don't like the negative of politics, and each of us will be judged for our works, good and bad.

I will refrain from itemizing Newt or Ron's faults. What of Obama's lies, they are effecting our nation at the roots, hopefully Mitt's are political rhetoric.

You can say Romney is not like Obama, but he is.
Quote:
RUSH: Daniel Henninger said Mitt Romney is not naturally conservative. He's going to have to be nudged in that direction. That's true. It's not a particularly unique point, but still true. Now on Sunday night Romney was here in Palm Beach for a big fundraiser. Word has leaked out about some of the things that he said to the donors. These are things that he's not said publicly in terms of specifics on policy, and one of the things that he talked about was a tax plan. He wants to lower rates but eliminate some deductions for the rich. And I have to tell you, folks, I'm not comfortable with the Republican nominee talking about special plans for "the rich," special plans for "Hispanics."

That was part of it, too. He was saying we're gonna have to do some special outreach for Hispanics, special outreach for women. No, we don't. Not as conservatives. We don't have to have special policies for this group and that group or special whatever. One of the tax ideas was to eliminate... Now, get this: Eliminate the mortgage deductibility on second homes. Now, that's populism. We're talking an amount of money that's no different than the Buffett Rule. It's a shame. His capital gains idea is also a little curious, because it, too, is targeting "the rich," anybody making over $200,000 jointly and introduces progressivity into the tax which seems fair or what have you.

These are not the things that a Republican, much less a conservative nominee, needs to be talking about or saying. This is Rockefeller Republicanism. This is identity politics. It's the kind of stuff that the left talks about.

See, that is were most Republicans will disagree with you, you don't even acknowledge Romneys value over Obama. This may be your honest opinion, but it is just wrong.

But you'll support an ADULTERER for president? Not only dishonest but a cheat. Your logic is duplicitous. Aren't WHOREMONGERS listed in that group going to the lake?
