Republics really confuse me.

[MoonRiver]

Since their primary began all I hear is they're looking for the "anti-Romney." If this is really true, WHY is Romney winning their primaries and STILL considered the GOP front-runner?? There have been plenty of "alternatives" out there, so wtf is their problem? Mass schizophrenia perhaps??

1. Some really hate Romney

I heard some tea partiers interviewed saying that they would rather let Obama take 2012 and wait until 2016 than let Romney win. As for the failure of the anti-Romney forces to coalesce behind one of the other choices, I'm as perplexed as you are. They looking for someone who can debate Obama without looking stupid and who passes every litmus test on the issues, a candidate that does not exist.

2. Some hate him, but clearly not the majority.

Some hate Gingrich too, and it shows in the election results. My guess is as much as they don't want Romney, when push comes to shove, they know he's the only one who has a shot, albeit a long one, of beating Obama.

3. Words do have meanings...America is a Republic as are many other countries.

Republicans are a Political Party within America.

4. Can't help but wonder how this is making Romney feel. If it were me, I

would take it personally and after I got the nomination, say oops you don't like me, I'm outta here.

[MoonRiver]

5. He's not going to do that!

He wants this nom desperately. It is his last shot. But, I agree, all the personal attacks and negativity would have driven me away long ago. But this is a power mad, driven pol. Those folks are a different breed from the rest of us.

6. I've watched the republican party over the years dissolve into a bunch of delusional

dribble. They say nothing in their presentations but a bunch of rhetoric to attract hostile RW elements of their party. It's discouraging to even listen to them, if this is the best they have to offer and they want to run the country. Every time I listen to some of them it's always a WTF. They never bring solutions, just hatefulness, divisive rhetoric and authoritarianism laced with RW fundy religion.

[MoonRiver]

7. That is all so true.

What reasonable person can take these fools seriously?

[RKP5637]

8. That's what I always find concerning, those that support them. They always yell about

small gov., freedom this and that, no gov. interference ... but yet their rhetoric is always soooo invasive and authoritarian. They just make no sense, and seem to want some type of invasive and controlling theocratic authoritative dystopia. It all gets very very creepy.

9. Remember what Bush, the dumber, said

I'm against dictators, unless I'm the dictator! He almost made it too.

[RKP5637]

10. Yep, I remember that so well. That's one of the things that really concerns me

about NDAA with indefinite detention... who comes down the road with what regime ... imagine Bush/Cheney with NDAA rounding up those that disagree with their agenda ... just about anything can be construed to be an enemy of the state. It's all relative, of course, to TBTB at that time.
