    It seems as if Romney might be raising his head over the fenceline. I think he'd have a pretty good shot of winning if he was the GOP nominee. Much different conditions than 2008.

    Mattis as a Dem would be formidable.

    Romney as a Republican in a primary fight, not so much. Maybe in 2024 if the Trump figures out a way to lose this.

    Romney sucks and I regret voting for him. He's been implicated in the Ukraine corruption along with the Bidens. I would not vote for him if he was the GOP nominee.

    Romney is a notorious corrupt fixer. He'll be a favorite of the forces pushing Uncle Sam back up to the world bar and buying round after round for the house.

    Am I the only one that has yet to see any proof about the Ukraine-Biden connection?

    I've given Trump the benefit of the doubt with Russia, so I'd think it's only fair...


    Am I missing something? :dunno:

    Trump [STRIKE]Great[/STRIKE] Decent. Romney Sucks. Got it.

    FIFY.

    I never said Trump was great, but in my view he is still far preferable over Romney. FWIW, I voted for Cruz in the primary. In the future, I would vote for Cruz or Trump in the general election; I would not vote for Romney, Jeb, or Hillary. Some number of flaws are acceptable in a candidate, but at some point the number and type becomes too great to accept. Romney, Jeb, and Hillary are examples where they are too flawed to earn my vote no matter who they are running against.

    We should not let "perfect" become the enemy of "good enough for now". Just musing here, but this is the trap the "big L" libertarians tend to fall into. They want the perfect candidate (or solution) right now and will not accept anything else. Incrementalism works.

    I need an intern to go back and search comments in 2008. I'm not going to do it. Boring.

    Monica?
    The way I remember it from back then. Most people weren't happy that he was the nominee but had to vote for him anyway, because Obama.

    I am kinda dumbfounded about this?

    1# vote for a Socialist

    Imploding the economy
    Higher Taxes
    Eliminating Private Healthcare
    Open Borders
    Green new deal
    2nd AD destroyed
    Supreme Court Packed
    Electoral College gone
    Federally mandated jobs
    Mandated Unions

    I seriously doubt a forum like INGO would be allowed to exist under the New Democratic Party?

    2# Vote for DJT

    Exactly! Trump is far from perfect, but he is a pretty decent President. Definitely the best since Reagan (who was also far from perfect and yet was a pretty decent President too).

    His opponents on the left are outright loons! I don't see how any reasonable person could vote for any of them, but I'm sure they will rationalize it some way despite the list above being the truth.

    Trump Great. Romney Sucks. Got it.

    Trump has proven himself to be a fighter. Romney is a *****. Every other R candidate is a pushover.

    I for one am tired of the D's running roughshod over someone with good ideas. They have tried it with Trump and failed miserably.
