Thumbs down Death of GOP, Romney quits!
Well, the GOP did not even put up a fight, just wimpered to its demise by committing suicide. Now we have 2 marxists and a socialist idiot running for President. God help the USA, no one else is going to help.

It is time to start the Conservative Party of America!

The communists have won, they used the media and the "edjewkashun" system to dismantle the USA from within with propoganda and lies. Best prepare to live in a third world country, because that is what Hillary, Obama or McAmnesty have in store for us.

Like a fricking MASS Mormon would have ever had a chance in the South . It was a losing proposition from the start. I think MAC will be more practical then you think and work with the conservative part of the party .

But I agree if Omaba wins we will be a third world country in 8 years with a DEM congress . He will be worse then Jimma Cater ever was singing KUM BA YA ! Hillary will be just as bad with handouts but a little better with the defense.

Great news---one of the worst human beings in American politics is finished! Wingers, I recommend that you form your own party---the Republicans are now firmly in the middle and have left you out there hanging. Get together with the holy rollers, poorly educated borderline types and create a real conservative party!

Shame. Many of us outside of the US were looking forward to the entertainment value of another deluded idiot leading your country. On the up side, at least now there's the prospect of somebody half sensible being elected president

That may be your choice, but I would not trust McAmnesty on anything he said. At least Romney has been successful in business and with fixing an Olympic mess. I don't know him personally, and he was never my first choice, but as far as I have heard, everyone that has met him or worked with him holds him in the highest regard. If you notice the states that did not vote for McCain, they were the ones where he was known best.

Romney's whole election campaign was fake .
MAC sounded good today at CPAC and got a good reception . So you are going to vote for Hillary or just stay home and cut your nose off to spite your face
Like Clint Eastwood said while ago some Reps have machochistic qualities
He quoted MAC saying those in Congress are spending like drunken saliors but did not come out and fully endorse him.

MAC is only saying what you want to hear. He doesn't practice what he preaches.

Thats true and a good point, ya have to give him that, he's a tried and tested business leader with a lot of good experience.

He just never struck me as being very sincere. His demeanor and language totally belied his "board room" nature - I felt like I was sitting in a meeting whenever I watched him, with the kind of buzzwordy teamwork feelgood speak he uses.

It may not be too terribly different, but government politics and business politics are different things to me. Business politics are very feudal, very self oriented (and rightly so for sake of that business' success). Government politics, at least in our republic, are supposed to be more moderate and less self interested. Personally the way I deduce a person's inclination to approach things that way is by how and when they handle stress/opposition and how they deal with others. Honesty, basically, and consistency of thought with a certain mixture of intellectual empathy. I respect that a lot and try to emulate it myself, as much as I can, knowing still that no one is perfect or even good at it.

Thats a stark contrast to the reality in business as I've seen it so far, where the nature seems to be "cover your ***, increase efficiency, and blame the problems on the person across from you".

Believing that there is even a difference in government politics may just make me naive...I don't know yet! But I think when it comes to appealing to a wider national voting base, McCain is a better choice between the front runners.

Look carefully into Romney's "business successes" That's a myth.

Littlefield is the only rational righty. Why would you people sit it out when in many respects, McCain is in line with your "philosophy". I encourage you to sit it out.

This post of yours is perfect !!!!
It illustrates exactly what has gone so terribly wrong with the GOP --hijacked by crackpots !
Read what you posted , silly is a nice word , and I need not use asterisks !.
Marxist's and Socialists in the lead for President !!! {the sky is falling too !} LOL!.
Bottom line is this , the majority of Republicans will not support Mitt, and he wisely stepped aside. Republicans usually try to get it together early in this regard , smart move in a way.
I imagine many on the left are unhappy that Kucinich is not leading the democrat's , but you don't hear them saying Obama or others are Nazi's ! The reason ? they are not crackpots !.
I , like linsky , wished the far right would start their own party , and leave mainstream Americans alone , both Repubs and dems --all of us . They could call it the Regressives , or the 'Jesus War Corporate Party', Red white & blue , whatever.
I honestly believe that the crackpot wing of conservative party is going through Bush/ Cheney withdrawal fits!, your post backs up my opinion.
I am not a Republican , and would not enjoy the old fart McCain as President , but I am not going to go nuts and make stupid statements .
Seriously , I think the GOP is going to try to appeal to the mainstream moderate Americans , and the increasingly large numbers of independent voters. Primary Numbers don't lie , and you are a minority ! { I love saying that ! } Bush burned their arses good and this type crap will not fly anymore --they want to win !.
I think the democratic process puts an extreme stress on the far right, it always has , here and abroad , historically , but hey , live with it !. >f

You will see the establishment back him more and more in the weeks to come and if you do not believe it you are naive indeed. A lot of this is pure strategey to get him to go more to the right.
