Re: The Real Delegate Count - it's not over
I have to agree with PO.
I cannot consciously vote for either Romney or Obama. That would be almost the same concept as eating a rotten tomato or a rotten potato. It would leave that type of taste in my mouth.
And just because he is supposedly declared the winner of the republican nomination doesn't mean I have to hold my nose and vote for him or the current.
I don't know what is going on in our political arena here, but it is not "kosher". We have the same old tired faces in Washington leading our country to destruction.

Re: The Real Delegate Count - it's not over
Ready, your metaphor doesn't fit. Its not rotten tomatoes/rotten potatoes. Its a choice between rotten tomatoes and poison mushrooms. Romney might taste bad, but at least he has some nutritional value. Obama is deadly.

Re: The Real Delegate Count - it's not over
Who's to say it isn't the other way around? 
Either way, I ain't gonna eat either one.

Exactly - spot on! 
And I certainly do agree with today's comments by Patrick Buchanan - "Does the Romney Republican Party have the courage of its convictions -- to carry out a fiscal program consistent with its conservative philosophy? For when, ever, has the modern GOP done that? "
Lots of good points in this article. He succinctly points out my very thoughts, doubts and questions I've had all along.

Someday we must be brave enough to say - ENOUGH! Regardless of people's insults and bullying, regardless of the media, and regardless of the fear mongering.

Re: The Real Delegate Count - it's not over
Furthermore, I am not confident of the integrity of the vote count.

I agree. When I voted in the primary, one of the men asked me if the machine cooperated with me. I said, "Yes, of course, I don't know what it does internally." LOL!
Good night. Had a long day today!

Re: The Real Delegate Count - it's not over
Well...it's like this PO, sometimes I think voting machines are like human machines. What comes out of our machine looks nothing like what we put into it. 
Good night and pleasant dreams.

Seems to be the case.
This article is very meaty. Just really well written! It speaks on the ideology of both parties. This is the part that I have supported all along. This is what I want to see:
"If Obama wins this war of attrition, it will set off an ideological cleansing of the Republican Party in 2014 and 2016. The battle cry will be it’s time to return to stalwart conservative principles after back-to-back losses by Mitt McCain."

What Happens to Democrats If Obama Loses
The American people are in a real predicament at such a pivotal point in our history, faced with a presidential election between a man with no principles and another with all the wrong ones.
The true leftists in the Democrat Party are not found at the local county Democrat central committee in Montana. That person is likely just a Democrat because they don’t trust corporate America, and either has no conviction on social issues either way or is “personally” pro-life and pro-family. The true leftists in the Democrat Party are found in leadership and on the biggest platforms the party has in media and pop culture.
Meanwhile, Republicans are the exact opposite. True conservatives are usually not found in leadership in Washington, D.C. or even on many national platforms the Republicans have, but are the local people in the grassroots.
