The Republican Nomination For President: The Race For The Race For The White House

Wrong, as always. The repugs do not believe in personal freedom,
nor do they believe in personal responsibility.

We view this race from different perspectives:

Virtually no conservative considers Obama competent, and disagrees with most of his policies.

On the other hand, there is certainly objective evidence to suggest that at least Romney, Cain, Huntsman, Perry and Johnson have
a record of competent executive experience.

In addition, each one of the candidate advocates more conservative apprecitated policies than Obama.

Gingrich and Santorum have had successful legislative careers and, once again,
most of the policies they promote are favored by conservatives.

I don't think Bachmann and Paul have not demonstrated much success (other than in getting elected) during their careers,
but they are no less experienced than Obama was when he won the presidency.

Yet again, most of their positions resonate with conservatives.

Not one of thee candidates would be my first choice, if I was allowed to make the choice, but you have to play the cards your dealt.

If you believe the current president is an incompetent executive and you ideologically disagree with a great many of his policies, it's not hard to imagine throwing the lever on Election Day for any of these candidates should they obtain the nomination. In a number of cases, you will be crossing your fingers and hoping they surround themselves with first class advisors, but when Obama won, there was very little hope, or reality, around that.

It would take a moderate Democrat with a strong record of executive achievement (I can only imagine a governor; never a legislator, community activist, or professor) but I could see me contemplating voting Democrat. No such Demcrat candidate will be on the ballot in 2012.

I think the Anyone but Romney movement is counter-productive.

There is no guarantee that any of the Republican candidates can beat Obama, but if, for the sake of argument, Romney is the only one who has a chance, then I far prefer that he run than a more stalwart conservative who is sure to be defeated.

Right now, for a number of reasons, the only two Republican candidates who I feel have a very good chance of defeating Obama are Romney and Hunstman.

The last thing the corporate kings want is for you to understand that the Occupy movement actually does have a clue, and that there are many easily workable solutions to the problems we face in this country. This is because these solutions eliminate the one percent's ability to keep raping the rest of us.

how is this different from you and your gun message here on A2k, dave...?

I used to travel with a tent. big blue and white one.

you'd look right at home hawking your snake oil (or gun oil) in front of one...

I read your link.
I don 't mean to be offensive, but I found it only to contain
some very vague confusions and vaguer generalities.

It seems to me like a lot of emptiness.
I suspect that the occupy movement does not have a consensus
beyond its numerical slogan.
