It would be extremely hard for Romney to beat Obama in head to head election. Romney has just been on to many sides of various issues, this will come back to haunt him big time. Americans dont tend to elect candidates that show various opinions on major social issues at different times in their political career, its a risk.

I disagree. Depending upon Romney's choice for Veep, he could beat Obama by a fair margin.
 
Aargh. I accidentially selected Romney in the poll, but I'd never vote for him. If Romney is the nominee, I'll go 3rd party.

Romney is the worse thing that could happen to the GOP. Another directionless "moderate" cut from the same cloth as GWB (and Obama BTW) who's only real guiding principle is his own election.
 
If you are someone who identifies themselves as a memeber of the OWS party and the guy you voted for is the biggest recipient of banker/broker bribery in history...who do you vote for? Thats right...that guy...which makes you...thats right...that guy...
 
those of us who understand political reality realize that there are far more independents than dogmatic unrealistic far righties. A candidate who appeals to people like you tends to piss off people who don' t think that abortion is a capital crime or those who get their shorts in a wad over gays in the military or other things that have no relevance to how the nation is really run other than to those who let religion dictate political policy.

Then by your logic it should not matter if every conservative votes for a 3rd party candidate and Romney loses it will because those independents didn't vote for Romney.

Appealing to the such "social conservatives" over issues that do not objectively affect this nation's governance only loses us the votes of more pragmatic voters who might agree with our them of less government control over the economy

But Romney is trying to appeal to conservatives by pretending to be one and acting as though we are supposed to ignore how he ran Massachusetts and the things he said before he decided to run for president.

If Romney is the candidate and you vote 3rd party what you will get is 4 more years, don't kid yourself you are in essence voting for obummer

If you vote for Romney then you are getting a pro-illegal,anti-2nd amendment, pro-abortion, pro-gay marriage,pro-man made global warming fairy tale believer who will nominate liberal judges to the supreme court, you are in essence voting for for Obama.

Exactly, james. Romney is no different than Obama. Never has been and never will be.
 
Third party. Pure and simple. I won't vote for a Liberal, regardless of which party he is the nominee of.

The sad fact is that Obama is pretty damn conservative, as president at least.

LOL. I just spit water all over the screen as I read that, Star. Obama is about as Conservative as I am female. Not only aren't we those things, but they're pretty much the things we would least WANT to be in the entire world.

Obama hasn't been a liberal as president, he's given us lip service, but has done nothing important that we wanted.

And I note your comment on us women, it's awesome being a woman by the way ;)
 
It looks like I'll be voting 3rd party this year.

He has failed to be 100% CONSERVATIVE, therefore he is a LIBERAL in all ways that make any difference.

I would rather eat a round of double-00 buck shot, thank you very much.

Please don't derail and **** up this thread with more of your over-the-top Talibanish misogyny.
 
Romney may not be as conservative as you would like but comparing him to obama is absurd and you haven't seen the real obama yet. The real obama would emerge in a second term with no reelection worries, so far it's been obama lite. Do any of you remember how we ended up with Clinton 2nd term, the "giant sucking sound" was in reality the sound of votes being sucked away from Dole. Maybe you voted for Perot too huh, some people never learn.

And you will do as your party tells you to regardless of the candidate's policies because you've bought the party before country mantra.

YS... how is Obama "pretty damn conservative?"
 
If Mitt Romney is on the ballot I simply won't vote.

GOOD. Then MAYBE, just MAYBE the Republican Party would drag their heads out of their asses and nominate someone who WASN'T EXACTLY LIKE HIM!!!!!!

I voted for Perot in 1992, I didn't vote in 1996 and I voted for Chuck Baldwin (Constitution Party) in 2008. I WILL NOT support a candidate who is not a Conservative. Period.

So in essence you have a long history of getting Dem's elected to put lib judges in the courts, congratulations.

I have a long history of putting Principles and Beliefs above party allegiance.

As I said to someone else earlier, I don't believe that VOTING is going to be the means to fixing the problems in this country. That will take REVOLUTION.
