Romney needs to grow a set before he runs again. Compared to whom? Granted, I am looking at this from the wrong end of a telescope out here in Japan, but I simply cannot think of a more qualified candidate from among those in the running now. Don't confuse intelligence and decency with weakness. Romney had a clear set of priorities and explained them. His mistake in the last election was the talk about those with entitlements, many of whom had they only known would have been better off with him in office. There are always going to be some who oppose a successful businessman as candidate. Believe me, he had to be plenty tough to do what he's done. Remember that chart of the percentage with business experience that past presidents appointed to their cabinets. The rock bottom has been Obama with 8%. Looking at accomplishments, most of his have been totally out of their depth. Libs rushed to dispute this, but to say that Hillary and Holder, among others, had real world business experience is not persuasive to me. Of course, to say that Romney is the best choice is not the same as thinking he will crush the opposition.

We need a conservative who can bring out the base. Ya, "the base" is what didn't turn out to vote for Romney, putting Obama in office for a SECOND time. Ph&kking retards....

Great Society? Viet Nam? Dept of Homeland Security? 5 Trillion in debt? While I do like Cruz, Presidential "Texans" per se havent been a boon to conservatism.
Quit giving in inch by inch then looking back to lament the mile behind ya and wonder how to preserve those few feet left in front of ya. They'll never stop until they're stopped. That's a fact.

Sounds like you fellers think Obama was the better choice. Romney was nothing more then Obama Lite. Romney will change his tune to what ever would take to get him elected. We don't need four years of tepid progressive leadership. Jim

That documentary released about Romney did much to improve his image among the moderate democrats.
Many of whom wish they hadn't have voted for Obama in a second term.
Now they will see Romney as a republican choice that a democrat can stomach.
I mean he'll still be middle of the road socialism and a war hawk - which means spending will still be crazy under his watch - but he'll have an "R" by his name which means its ok to vote for him to the GOP base.

The fact that Romney is the elected choice of the same people that continually inflicted Ted Kennedy and Barney Frank on us, tells me everything I need to know about Romney. In the primaries, I will support and vote for just about anyone else with my favorite being Cruz.

Romney won't run. Had he sat out the last election, he would be the favorite based on name recognition alone. His people ran a lifeless campaign against an incumbent President, thinking that it was 1980 all over again, but it wasn't. He doesn't have a message for anyone to follow.

We need a conservative who can bring out the base. Someone who isn't afraid to get mean. There isn't one.... Ahem...ME. And I WILL accept the nomonation. Withing 2 weeks of putting the Arizona thru Alabama National Guards on the Mex border and turning loose the Air National Guards on opposing fire from across the river THAT problem will be solved. After rounding up all in the country illegally from the protests, media interviews and other public showings they frequent THAT problem will be solved. After giving public announcement that all remaining illegals have the choice of being bused back to the border in air conditioned comfort by a date certain or being pursued and forcibly removed (and backing it up with physical examples) THAT problem will be solved. After informing any and all employers of the perils they will face if hiring or harboring illegals (and backing it up) THAT problem will be solved. I could go on and on with other examples like Welfare Fraud, Public Housing Abuse, Threats from Abroad, Subsidy Sucking Foreign Nations that Hate US, Unconstitutional Government Madates, and on and on and on. But I think you get the picture. In short: I'm The Man. Write me in on Democrat & Republican ballots. "If you want them Shot, vote for Shootem"

Romney was the first governor of any state in this nation to force homosexual marriage on the citizens of his state.
After the Demonrat controlled state legislature passed a law forbidding sodomite marriage Romney betrayed the citizens of his state and forced this perversion upon the citizens of Massachusetts.
Romney is a Trojan Horse, an elitist and a NWO puppet.

I will vote for the Republican candidate, no matter who it is. I've got my "druthers" too, but I sure won't stay home and let the Dems win just because I wasn't in favor of the Republican nominee. At least two Supreme Court appointees hang in the balance, and we can't allow the Dems to fill those slots if we value our freedoms and our Country. Just my two cents worth............
If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

my problem with republicans appointing supremes is I've learned that when people talk about supremes valuing freedom - its "their" version of freedom they are talking about
so a GOP supreme is going to be favoring laws that are just as extreme as a liberal supreme - its just in line with the GOP base.
I'd like to have a supreme that isn't pro-this or anti-that and is about letting Americans at the local or individual determine what they want.
That is real freedom

GOP has nobody to run as of yet (nobody that could win)! And neither do the Democrats! It's going to be real interesting this next coming year....

His people ran a lifeless campaign against an incumbent President, thinking that it was 1980 all over again, but it wasn't. He doesn't have a message for anyone to follow. his problem (and every other GOP candidate) is that he can't have a message for anyone to follow - he has to have a message for everyone to follow - and as soon as he takes a stand that goes against the GOP base - all 14 different one's - they revolt against him and go to the new flavor of the month who is a flipping idiot. Don't get me wrong - I didn't want Romney, but all that effort Romney had to invest in showing he was a better candidate than say Herman 999 Grab a secretaries ass Cain just made it that much easier for Obama to rake in the money and votes. And Romney had to do that for Bachman, Cain, Santorum..... Each time he'd climb back to the top of the polls until another candidate would jump up with their appeal to one faction of the base and Romney would have to beat them back down And it was clear all along that Romney was going to be the least offensive candidate the Repubs could offer. You guys talk about wanting a candidate that takes a stand but the first one that does will get chewed up and spit out - because there will be 8 other planks on his platform that some faction of the GOP base will take exception to. So you end up with the most vanilla moderate you can, admit you don't want him but still demand that everyone vote for him.
