The Right Scoop
Think people!
This is why we have to turn out in mass in November and not just defeat Obama, but win control of the House and Senate, and replace the GOP old guard as well! Only with ALL of us breathing down his neck will Romney be forced to do OUR bidding!
After reading through the entire thread, I think only one person really has it correct here. If Obama is re-elected (and the country survives) we can possibly elect a Conservative in 2016. However, as noted by FutureOnePercent, a Romney win could doom us for much longer. If Romney does not repeal Obamacare, restructure entitlements, fix the energy and financial crises, and downsize government, the Tea Party, Conservatives, and Republicans will be blamed.
It would not surprise me one bit if this led to a 2016 run by a Communist candidate running on the Communist platform. The GOP really screwed up on this one.
It's hard for me to believe that you are actually hoping that Obama will win. Do you realize how much damage Obama could do to our country, our standing in the world, and our way of life with another four years, and the "flexibility" he mentioned when he thought no one could hear him? Do you really want to live in a socialist country? With four more years Obama might be able to do things that might be unfixable, by ANYONE who might run four years from now!
Yes, unfortunately I do understand the gravity of the situation. I do NOT think that the GOP does, though. They did not elect someone who could beat Obama on issues. They possibly elected someone who could beat Obama in cash.
If Romney is not "pulled to the right", then the country will go up in flames in 2-3 years anyway. I do not like him and I do not trust him. This is a man who wiped out every conservative candidate with NO PLATFORM. Who else did this? Obama. The voters did not pick Romney. He bought the election somehow and now we have loser 1 and loser 2 to pick from. Anybody but Obama, but don't get all giddy thinking it will be "better"...
The national GOP has left me. They have become a liberal statist party on the national level. If the GOP voters want a liberal statist, then it is obvious that I am no longer welcome in the party, and therefore will not be participating.
Romney has already alienated a good percentage of the conservative base of the party and this appointment will only erode his support even more. And don't give me the lesser of two evils argument. I'm beginning to think he really wants to lose.
Mark, I really hope the SCOTUS does its job and puts this Administration under a microscope and does it all in the name of the law of the Constitution. If they do not all is lost because the Court will be filled with liberals that rubber stamp the White House.
I would be more worried if this person is going to be on staff at the white house than being on the transitional team. This is going to be Romney. There will be times where he will be great and there will be times where it gets you thinking, what in the hell is he doing.
Romney is waiting until Obamacare is declared unconstitutional and then he will announce his plans. Since he attends church with and is freinds with Clayton Christensen I would expect him to use some of the ideas in this book. http://www.amazon.com/The-Innovators-Prescription-Disruptive-Solution/dp/0071592083/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1338871310&sr=8-5
This is the reason we need a constitutional conservative like Governor Sarah Palin, we know where she stands on policy, what needs to done to turn this country around and does not sell us any BS. This is one of the reasons the DC GOP elite establishment do not want her, she is not 4 sale and is beholding to no one and will not go along to get along. She will do what is right for the country.
Obama is a known loser for this country. I am convinced he is seriously putting forth effort to bring America down... he's an ego maniac with tunnel vision pointing to Karl Marx. Romney will be an improvement. He's not my first pick either but these are the cards we've been dealt and we have to play them. Romney may well not bring us back. He, after all, is a capitalist at heart whether his policies in Mass. were left leaning or not. He'll have to realize he's will need the conservatives to be reelected so....
JMHO
Romney wants to level the playing field. This is Obama like language and that means the Federal Government will tell each State what to do. SCTOUS will strike Obama Care so Romney will give the States money in exchange for implementing Romney Care in each State or something very similar.
Romney is a genius in leadership he knows the only way to get 60 votes is to get all the Democrats and a few RINOS. There is no way to get Democrats as all the Blue Dogs are gone. Thus this is the only route to get anything done. Thus Romney will push the same agenda as Obama but with much better results.
Mitt = Obama Supercharged.
'Thus Romney will push the same agenda as Obama but with much better results.' - sa
I don't buy the storyline. Sorry.
You can get a job playing that Indian chief who is looking at a place where Democrats had a rally the day before.
I think that was the commercial.
Yeah, I remember that commercial. I wouldn't be able to pick up the plastic bottles, though, since they banned plastic bags. :(
We may have lost Newton Leroy Gingrich but you are right Nuke, if Walker wins on Tues...all is not lost, the tide will have started to change. That is all we have now, because Romney will never be what we need him to be.
The Socialist Mask of Marxism

I still can't understand why anyone would have voted for a liberal from MA, who implemented socialized medicine, gave cars to welfare recipients, and worked with John Holdren. Now this? I'm starting to think they're all trying to achieve the same goal, Obama the impostor from Kenya, as an in your face Marxist, and the establishment GOP, stealthily. I don't trust Romney.
The nature of government is to grow and become tyrannical. Man has a corrupt nature, and when given power over others, he usually abuses that power. The suffering of many millions of people throughout history under such governments is proof enough. A study of the progression of our culture and government is proof positive that we have taken the same path as all other failed states. The many do not do their due diligence in keeping the few in check, and are therefor overrun by the tyranny of the few. America is a failed experiment in liberty. It is almost over with.
George Romney was a Marxist even best friends of Saul Alinsky with Mitt Romney his spokesman. George loved North Vietnam the greatest third world country on earth.
Mitt is every bit the Marxist Obama is after all Progressive is code for Communist. Just ask Alan West. The Progressive Caucus.
Bingo NJK- "starting to think they're all trying to achieve the same goal.." Same goal, just different game of getting us there.
People wanted anybody or anything other than dear leader.... just so happens the one that got picked is the one most like dear leader. We can only get used to this.
"Mark Levin: We’re gonna have to work really really hard to drag Romney to the right..."
Why "drag" someone where they don't want to go?
Ladies and Gentlemen, the President of the United States,: Mittwitt Romney-Obama.
That's why this has to go to Tampa. Newt said it and he knew it would happen.
But people refused to get behind the smartest man out there who had the plan for America that was great.
If we're going to drag him to the right, we're going to have to put the pressure on the big banks, the Fed, and the corporations who drive policy.
I just figured that if we are going to have any effect on how he governs, then we better put the pressure on the ones he will take orders from. Not that it would do any good. They are just about to finish us off economically, so its a bit late in the game.
Over at Ace, there is a post regarding Romney hiring a man that favors Obamacare...He will do very little to fix the problem, if not add to it. UGH!
It is no coincidence that HusseinCare was modeled after RomneyCare. No coincidence that Romeny has the same disdain for our Constitutional rights. No coincidence the Father of HusseinCare was chosen to succeed in the decent of Hussein.
Government healthcare is the point of no return for socialism. They will not reverse it unless we remove them.
Romney/Obamacare is going to be Willard's albatross. Let's see (if he gets elected) where he will go when it comes to repealing/revamping/reworking it.
As long as the voting machines keep the country evenly split, there will always be a political reason for not being able to repeal anything. Funny how that seems to work out.
As I said, I'll vote for the non-Obama candidate... but Romney doesn't get an ounce of support from me.
He is oily, moderate, and too tight-lipped (just like Obama was) about what he's going to do if elected.
What a twit. Mitt, you killed off your more than worthy competition with Democratic attack techniques... now you're in the catbird seat. Make us believe you'll be better for the country than Obama... not just a slight improvement over the former monster-and-chief.
O Bamacare ORommeycare
Slot Machine Socialized Medicine. Care for the Wait? Canadians are coming here cause they cannot stand the wait. (Life/Death) When we are socialized Medicine Game Over.
Palin/West 2012 The only choice!!!
