Katz-- If you vote for a third party candidate you are essentially voting for Obama. Obama is pro-choice.

I agree. Support or vote for any candidate that cannot win is a vote for Obama.

I'm thinking I'll ignore this thread as it's just a rehash of V II's well known promotion of Romney for unknown reasons other than "he must be the candidate", and his inexplicable hatred for Perry and his distain for all other Republicans.

I disagree with his premise and I'll leave it at that. (Oh, and I think his headline tells you more of his feelings than his post)

I don't hate Perry, I do feel sorry for him. He has no business in a big boys game and is constantly making a fool of himself. I wish you would stop your guessing who and what I am. It just does not play well with others and serves no useful purpose on this board. Please stay with topic and away from insults. No one cares what you think of me personally. Please keep a civil on topic conversation. :wave:

For those that are concerned with the well being of the country and not what I ate for breakfast:
I do think Romney would be our best hope in the upcoming election. Right now, the number one problem this country has is the economy and Romney could sure do a better job than Obama with that issue.

Obama is pro-choice, so not getting him out of office is not helping the un-born.

Take the right step to get a Republican in office and then go to work on changing issue by issue that is of concern to you.

Insinuating I am a Liberal and a Democrat because I support Romney is not going to help anything or anyone so give it a rest.

I cast my vote for Mc Cain in 08 instead of for Ron Paul for the very reasons that you are now using to persuade me to stick with the GOP candidate at all costs...I cannot cast a vote for Romney. Mr. Katz assures me that Romney won't be the candidate and says that I should "just relax on this one for now". Hope he is as right as he usually is.:ho:
He's telling me it will be Gingrich and Bachmann or Gingrich and Cain on the ballot. I'm telling him to get his own account on TOTV:p

I could go for Gingrich and Cain and I think they could win. I do worry what his problem with women will cause, but he could come out with some soft serve response to change the subject back to important issues. YEA, Newt and Cain could win this.

how about taking your plea for yourself:

"I wish you would stop your guessing who and what I am. It just does not play well with others and serves no useful purpose on this board. Please stay with topic and away from insults. No one cares what you think of me personally. Please keep a civil on topic conversation."

And just change a word or two:

I wish you would stop your guessing who and what Perry is. It just does not play well with others and serves no useful purpose on this board. Please stay with topic and away from insults. No one cares what you think of Perry personally. Please keep a civil on topic conversation.

A just application of the same approach to different individuals....eh?

Now this is the most confusing post to date. You could say that no one cares what anyone thinks about anyone else period. What is your point? Without members on here giving their opinions about political figures, there would be no one posting at all. You must have a positive, neutral or negative opinion or again, WHAT IS YOUR POINT.

Now to explain it to you what my point was:

I am a member of this forum that posts opinions. All of us are supposed to keep it non personal. That is what I am asking for. I will ask you also to give your opinions on political, but stop giving personal insults to me. I don't appreciate it and I am sure you would not like personal attacks either. Canyou imagine no one on this forum giving their negative opinions about Obama. Be reasonalbe.

Please lets keep on topic and drop the personal attacks.

Iowa's Republican Independent Women's Voice poll of Nov 11-13 indicates they want more than a candidate that will echo poll tested platitudes. They want a leader who will boldly propose reforming some of government's sacred cows. 77% polled want ObamaCare repealed. 28% put repeal at the top of the priority list while 93% make it among the top ten list of priorities. 82% say they will oppose any candidate that is willing to implement a state-level individual mandate requiring health insurance. As to Medicare, Medicaid,and social security 60% rejected the statement that these programs do not need to be restructured. As to the Occupy Wall Street issue polling revealed that the 99% worried more about a threat from Washington politicians ,insiders and unelected bureaucrats than the 1% wealthy Americans by 53% (WSJ 11/19-20)

In that same paper Peggy Noonan likened Obama as being a good salesman that knows little about his product. she was referring to Steve Jobs comments concerning CEO who turn their companies over to sales people from engineers, etc and hence products quickly become inferior. so rue so true of Obama as evidenced by our continual down turn.

We will have a Republican president come 2012

Obama is looking better every day
 
I think Romney is a candidate even democrats can vote for. I remember voting for him when he ran for senate, and he clearly stated he is pro-choice, pro-universal health care, pro-gay rights and pro-gun control. Just saying.

Yes, I too want a leader who will make bold proposals to reform OR REPLACE some of government's sacred cows!!! Like the tax code......it is the source of most of our economic and healthcare finance problems. The whole darn tax code should be scrapped, not tweaked, and start over with a plan like Cain's or Perry's with no loopholes.

It is our goal to allow the passion and freedom to express your thoughts in political, but if it starts consuming too much time to moderate civility I'll just automatically close threads and restrict accounts. A particular user account was suspended today.

Herman Cain will get my vote in the primary. If Romney is the GOP candidate I will be voting for Ron Paul, who will then most certainly will run independently! :ho:

Spoken like a true Obama supporter.

Pro-Abortion candidate will NEVER get my vote. You would have better luck convincing me not to vote at all. A man who stands for nothing will fall for anything...I am not that person.

If one issue determines where your vote goes in a general election, you deserve and are seeking 4 more years of Obama.... if he stops at 4.

pro-life is not one cause among many. Please tell me what cause is more important, or even equal to, fighting for the lives of innocent human beings? Food? Shelter? Money? Success? Security?...abortion is the root cause of our nation's demise.
Send 90% of your army home til you are down to 3000, then only take those who lap their water like a dog. You will now be down to 300 to fight your fight. Or circle the opposition for seven days just singing songs, until the seventh day. On that day give a mighty shout of victory. Or...well, chachacha, i am sure you can take it from here.

freedom!!

This is the danger of voting on a one-topic ideology - the Rule of Unintended Consequences.

Remember, there are a lot of despots out there who are or were "pro-life". In addition, if memory serves, Sharia law bans abortion. Hitler banned abortion specifically so that more Aryans would be bred. In a not-so-radical example, Ireland historically banned abortion and there was quite an industry centered around cheap Ireland <-> UK travel so that women could get legal abortions. (I don't know if that's still true now that they are in the EU as the EU rules might preclude that)

I can think of other, more important issues. Like making it so abortion is *unecessary* - akin to the 'rising tide that lifts all ships". Look at WHY we have abortions and solve THOSE problems. I've said it before. Abortion is the symptom - not the disease.
