Again, I get Republicans voting Anybody but Obama, but not how anyone can be comfortable w/ Romney. Joel Send a noteboard - 14/03/2012 04:06:14 PM
In comparison, even a "meh" type of alternative looks attractive.

For all the Hell raising, it is hard to imagine how Republicans could have gotten more from Bushs successor; the tax cuts and corporate subsidies keep on a-comin'. All Romney offers is the real possibility he may flip flop yet again once elected and balance the budget with tax hikes like he did in MA, while allowing the health care law he wrote to remain (in fact, both of those seem pretty likely.) Since we really do not know WTF Romney will do, because he has pledged himself to the most radical ranks on both sides at various times, I still do not undertand how anyone could be truly "comfortable" with him. Again, voting against Obama is not the same as voting for Romney (though it may well prove enough for the latters victory, even if the 2012 economy bears a striking resemblance to the 2004 economy.)

can *any* republican pose a challenge to obama in november? - 14/03/2012 04:06:59 AM 1181 Views
Yes, absolutely..... - 14/03/2012 04:12:30 AM 634 Views
"anybody but obama" is not a winning strategy - 14/03/2012 02:28:23 PM 614 Views
It can definitely work.....don't compare 2012 to 2004. - 14/03/2012 02:44:39 PM 482 Views
this is why it will be 2004 all over again if romney is nominated - 16/03/2012 02:22:26 PM 520 Views
It sure as Hell is, as long as the candidate is moderate - 14/03/2012 03:04:10 PM 727 Views
Did you vote for Obama in 2008? - 14/03/2012 03:47:55 PM 482 Views
Yes I did. If Romney is the candidate, I will vote Romney this year. *NM* - 14/03/2012 08:39:41 PM 329 Views
Second me on that. *NM* - 15/03/2012 09:25:39 PM 248 Views
Strongly qualifying your statement really weakens the "anyone". *NM* - 14/03/2012 10:14:45 PM 345 Views
The statement "anyone but Obama" can be a rallying cry, but only for the right candidates. - 16/03/2012 01:47:48 AM 634 Views
somehow i don't see romney having much credibility versus obama - 16/03/2012 02:16:32 PM 519 Views
Spoken like a true Obama partisan - 16/03/2012 04:18:21 PM 536 Views
It's actually not about credibility. - 16/03/2012 09:57:41 PM 591 Views

I love that "Gas Costs More!" is the current rallying cry. - 14/03/2012 10:13:04 PM 514 Views
Sure, if Israel hits Iran and Obama looks weak. - 14/03/2012 04:56:23 AM 639 Views
i think iran/israel is probably the biggest issue at the moment - 14/03/2012 02:25:29 PM 641 Views
I would put serious money on an Israeli attack before the election. - 14/03/2012 02:56:55 PM 635 Views

I know that I would consider voting for Romney - 14/03/2012 01:05:47 PM 610 Views
If you will pardon an impertinent question: Why? - 14/03/2012 03:26:01 PM 589 Views
Because Obama is a complete and utter failure..... - 14/03/2012 03:44:14 PM 528 Views

The answer to the question is yes. *NM* - 14/03/2012 02:24:51 PM 415 Views
I was thinking no, and here's my rationale: - 14/03/2012 03:41:21 PM 549 Views
Romney doesn't have to "steal" people away..... - 14/03/2012 03:48:00 PM 550 Views
Isn't that a pretty tenuous strategy? - 14/03/2012 04:49:42 PM 583 Views
Much as it pains me to agree with trzaska, he is absolutely right in this case. - 14/03/2012 04:21:43 PM 758 Views
