:spoken:I support this position. Extremists are doing just what my mother used to tell me never to do: "DON'T CUT OFF YOUR NOSE TO SPITE YOUR FACE."
Sarah is cute, Perry is a Cowboy and FOX News contributors are Very Comical, but we are looking for a presidential candidate. I like pretty women, I am a Western Movie nut and I chuckle and agree with lots of the commentators on FOX news, but its time to wake up and lend your support for a serious candidate.

Romney - is the only viable runner at this time. Get your support out for him or get ready to complain for an additional four more years.

What is you definition of extremist? Ronald Reagan?

We tried vanilla with McCain. We want more color.

That is my problem. I cannot turn down "invites." I went golfing 3 times yesterday with different groups. 27 holes. I live in a Courtyard Villa with snowbird neighbors leaving and coming every week. Every time I sit down at this computer my wife comes in and tells me I'm supposed to be somewhere.
I have never had this much fun in years. We'll get together in the future and maybe invite your buddy Rich.

I really might be willing to "bet" you on this one. I'm thinking you don't have a clue what the country's mood is. Stop listening to the beltway talking heads on the tv, if that's what you're doing, because they're equally clueless. The independents will shift to my side in multitude if the candidate is strong in opposition to the current leadership and has good conservative ideals. The Republican candidates appeal will be diminished by putting forward a candidate who is "moderate", and that will seriously dilute his support among independents.

One of the worse days of my life was when I heard that McCain was going to represent the republicans for the presidency. We do not need another RINO to lose the election to the moonbats and our great country. I seriously believe that another Obama term will be too much for this country to ever make a comeback. We are slipping deeper and deeper into the muck of mediocrity.

This is pretty much my position as well. I was considering voting for McCain, the FIRST repub presidential candidate I would have ever voted for; that is until he picked the Paliln. I thought Hilary would have been the better candidate, but that did not happen. My McCain vote would have been in protest for what the party did to Hilary; but Palin...no way.

Got to tell you. I'm not fond of what your thinking at that time has wrought. I remember a childhood saying; "Don't cut off your nose to spite your face".

The thought of Palin being next in line for the presidency was WAY WAY too scary. Do I like Obama, no, I don't; but Palin would have been far worse. In retrospect I am even more convinced I voted correctly. She is a quitter...she is an opportunist. She quit to rake in the bucks while she could. For heavens sake, the woman could not even name a newspaper or magazine she read. This reminds me of Paris Hilton telling Larry King that she read her bible the whole time she was in jail...and when Larry asked her to quote her favorite part...she looked like a deer in a headlight. Did I just compare Paris Hilton to Palin? You betcha! You love her; I hate her. Never the twain shall meet. But I do like you Richie. You ideas sometimes make me cringe, but you are always honest about what you feel. That is important...and rare.

More drivel about poor Sarah. Why do women hate her? Probably because they are jealous of her. Did you ever see the women liberals?:faint:

OK, that's you're prerogative, I guess. I don't know how Sarah Palin as Vice President could have made the country's economy in "far worse" shape than it is now.

I don't know how Sarah Palin as Vice President could have put the United States in a "far worse" situation as it is now.

I know you can't see me, so just know I'm rolling my eyes and shaking my head in utter disbelief at, what I believe, is your total disconnect.:ohdear:

But, thanks for the kind words and I usually enjoy your comments as well. My good friend Buggy also challenges me, and I always get a kick out of it. You two know how to make your points without venom. Something a new member could stand to learn.
