Who actually supports Mitt Romney or Rick Santorum?

reply to post by Vitchilo


I guess it's because I don't know anyone like that. But I can't believe there are that many of those kinds of people still left in the this country. TV's influence on people is astounding.

So you're saying I'm creepy because I support my candidate whole-heartidly as opposed the normal "Well I'm apathetic towards politics. I voted republican last year so I'll just vote for who foxnews says I should." Please don't insult me. Also please tell me what is crazy about ron paul. If you can give me one thing about him that is "crazy" I will applaud you. Is peace crazy? Is personal freedom crazy? Is a sound fiscal plan crazy? Is challenging a system that is CLEARLY broken crazy? If these are crazy to you, than you are in fact the crazy one.

See above rant.

I mean really.

Is war the issue?
Then Ron Paul. Or Obama.
They'll both wave the white flag.

Is the erosion of the US Constitution a bigger deal?
Then Romney would be your guy.

Is there anyone perfect running?
Heck no!

What's your line in the sand?

Obamas a pretty good Neo-Con in disguise.


Just sayin.......

I have been talking a lot to my neighbors and the merchants in my neighborhood about this election...and many of them are just not interested.. and/or have deep apathy...and many say that they don't like the choices and won't vote this year.

It is sad that so many Americans....don't really care...and refuse to know anything beyond their immediate life and what they are about.

As for voting for Romney or Santorum...you have got to be kidding me!....

For those who may not know what (apathy) means...."is a state of indifference, or the suppression of emotions such as concern, excitement, motivation and passion..." en.wikipedia.org...

Well said. Apathy is the biggest issue with people in this country, hands down.

I address you both because I see something in common.

War.
Foreign policy.

Yes, war sucks. As someone in the Army I could write a book about how sucky war is. It's violent, it's dirty, it's noisy, it's ugly.

I hate it.

But just "not fighting" doesn't end war.

In fact, to some, it would invite it.

"not fighting doesn't end war" Can you elaborate on that? And if war sucks, then why not take your best shot to avoid it?

I wish we had a perfect person running.

It takes both sides to not fight.
If just one side decides not to fight it's called conquest.

Sometimes, the "best shot" is to beat the SOB's so badly that the war ends.

I'm on the anybody but Mitt (and obviously Obama) bandwagon.

Even more so since McCain came out an endorsed Romney.

Ron Paul is a joke, so I'm now leaning Santorum.

If that's what you honestly believe than there's really no point in debating. Fighting never solves anything. All it does it expose people's inner demons. True resolution is reached when we use our brains, not our muscles. Thanks for your responses.

I was thinking on the Lines of Neville Chamberlain,and appeasement.

It didnt stop Hitler one bit.

Great intentions though.

Why do you think ron paul is a joke? I guess you like war and debt?

reply to post by seberhar


all the republican big guns are out and waiting for 2016. why do you think you have this "crop" of seemingly inept people running this year? because either they know Obama will be re-elected, or they are keeping their powder dry for a better opportunity in 2016. they threw Dole a bone in 1996, knowing full well that he didn't have a chance of beatiung Clinton in his run for a second term....same thing this year. there are still too many fresh and painful memories from "W" Bush, to have any meaningful impact this election cycle. in 2012, the republicans are just going through the motions to appear viable.

That is a really interesting idea. I never thought about that. There might be some truth there. Could this be one of the reasons they don't want Dr. Paul to get the nomination? He's not an inept crony like the rest of them.

There's a difference between aggression and defending.

Defeding ones country may have to require some offensive strategy.
