It seems the ex-GOP hopeful still can’t quite get behind Mitt as the nominee. Oh, he’s putting on a brave face but you can tell he’s in pain.
In a recent CNN interview with John King, as noted by ABC, he says he trusts Mitt more than Barack Obama. Not exactly an enthusiastic “Hell, yeah”. He’s still worried about Mitt’s stance on healthcare as it relates to Massachusetts – news flash: Mitt isn’t running for public office in Massachusetts – move on, Rick! And worrying about whether he (Rick) will be seen as choosing the ‘lesser of two evils’ – Mitt or Barack? I would say, “Why would you want to choose the GREATER of two evils – Barack?”
Rick can be a force in the conservative movement – along with the other candidates – if they would keep their focus on the prize in November and quite playing crybaby politics. I admire them for putting themselves, their families, and their reputations out there for the world to malign. Weaknesses are exposed, strengths are overlooked. It’s a dirty game that they willingly participate in. And Rick did his share of negative politicking during the primaries. But the primaries are over – the die is cast. It’s time for Rick to rally behind the one man that the people have decided will be their gladiator in the upcoming epic coliseum battle. Put aside petty personal differences & be the bigger man, Rick. I know you have it in you and that you want a GOP win in November much like the rest of us in this great country. Help us fight for truth, justice, and the American way.
I still prefer Herman over all the rest and firmly believe that a Cain/West 2012 ticket would be the salvation of this nation!
ReplyDeleteRomney was the governor of quite possibly the most liberal state in America. The Massachusetts legislature was heavily liberal Democrat. Romneycare was the result of what liberals wanted for Massachusetts as much or more than it may have been something Romney wanted. Romney did his best, under the circumstances, to come to an agreement with the liberals on what Massachusetts wanted in health care reform. Romney repeatedly indicated that Romneycare was what Massachusetts wanted and that it in no way was a pilot plan for the entire United States.
ReplyDeleteRomney is the Republican candidate. It's time to get behind him and work tirelessly to see that he defeats odious Obama. Whatever a person thinks of Romney, he has to be a far better candidate and ultimate leader than John McCain could ever have been. I voted for McCain while holding my nose. I will vote for Romney without the necessity of having to hold my nose this time.
It will be incumbent upon conservatives to continually monitor and, where necessary, pressure Romney to adhere to the principles of our constitutional republic. There are a significant number of conservatives in Congress to keep Romney on the right track and I believe they will do so.
Ever since the issue of Romneycare surfaced, I have had only one thought. Romney was the Governor of the entire State of Mass., not just the conservatives. If Romney felt that his health care bill was necessary at that time, then that's what he enacted.
ReplyDeleteHindsight is always 20/20. He now knows that some options are not so good. Hawaii found out the exact same thing, but no one is castigating the signer of that bill. He is not running for the Presidency. He said he would overturn Obamacare if the Supreme Court upholds it.
Months ago I wrote my choice would be Romney. I felt there were things wrong with Cain, Ginrich and Santorum. I did not know enough about Ron Paul. But I remembered voting for another Libertarian years ago, from Texas, who then pulled out.
I honestly believe that Mitt Romney is more experienced and smarter than the other contenders. It would be a shame for Obama to get another four years because voters were unable to see that the other candidates had too many, and variable flaws, and would not have been able to out-maneuver the troll. There is just too much riding on this election. I am grateful to Rand Paul for supporting Mitt Romney, and sincerely hope that his dad will see his way clear to join him, enthusiastically. It would make all the difference in the world.
BTW, I would love to see Allen West as VP, but in order to win, it really has to be Rubio.
I would love to see West for VP as well. But he'll make a great President in 2020 after Romney has 2 terms!
