20. Who are the real RINOs here? (Feel free to circle two.)

A. Mitt Romney
B. Newt Gingrich

 

This GOP field is quite comical. They are really close to screwing this one up.

Beating Obama should be the easiest thing in the world, but this GOP field is turning it into a contest. The nominee might still win, but I find it baffling how poor this field is.

If the field had a candidate like Reagan instead of a field of Reagan-worshiping (at least in appearance) drones, the GOP candidate might be more successful.

 

While I am glad that two of these men are being exposed as for what they are it is clear that this was intended to promote one candidate, Huntsman.
I would rather they had applied the same diligence, pointing out the flaws, of all the major republican candidates as they did with just the two.
Although I am not associated with any party I am not leaning towards Paul and that leaves an uncertain concern running through me.

 

Of course they are RINOs. Note whom the Democrats WANT elected if it goes that way... Romney. Why? Same reason they fronted McCain. Most like them and most apt to continue to work with them.

Who are the destroying with innuendo on a daily basis? Cain, Perry, Palin (I know, I know, yet...) and anyone else who is truly conservative.

One other word, I'm up in the air about whether or not the Democrats actually want to win the next term. I'm of a mind that they are planning to loose on purpose, just to destroy the Repubicans forever. With virtually all of Obama's legislature coming online in and after 2012, I cannot imagine that any Democrat would actually want to be there to take the heat for all that "change." But, Obama being the maniac that he is, perhaps he thinks that his god-like power will be enough to overcome those obstacles.

In any case, watch that this election will be one where ANY Republican that runs will be vilified with the most horrendous of accusations, whether true or not. Cain is just the test case -- to see if it is possible to manipulate the thought of the citizenry enough to pull it off. It will be more and worse! I said it first. Watch and weep. If Jesus ran against Obama, the voters would likely reject Him after the PR campaign that will have been run against him by Obama and company. The Republicans will still likely win, but the seeds of doubt will have been placed firmly in mind well before they take office, so that after the fact, the Democrats can stand up as heros and impeach the rascal and save the day... :BangHead:

 

Politics is the art of compromise, something difficult for right wing Christians to understand.

 

It is not so much that they do not understand it, but that they are not interested in playing that game.

 

Any compromise that moves the country to the left is a win for the left and a loss for the right.

 

That's some good coffee yer a drinkin! By the way, I knew the answer to #2 was Newt Gingrich as soon as I saw the words "new synthesis evolving" in the comments. He always talks like that.

 

Labor of love it may be, but when cutting/pasting from ronpaulforums maybe a link is in order:thumbs:

 

This seems to be you claiming this is your work. Did you copy and paste this from RPF? This appears to be plagiarism. What does coffee have to do with a copy and paste?

 

???

Never been to that site till just now; post #2 was copied & pasted from the 2 page article provided in the OP (with incorrect answers eliminated).

 

???

You and NiteShift are quick to accuse (and I still don't get it why it would matter, whether I C & P from one site or from another). I used the article from the OP.

My intent was simply to provide a single page with singlular answers for everyone's viewing ease and pleasure. For some reason you and NiteShift have decided to attempt to smear me for doing that very simple deed.

 

I wonder how he would rate on a 'RINO scale' of 1 to 10 compared with all the others. I doubt he would be on the bottom.

On a 'constitutionally minded' scale, he would win hands down above all others.

 

Yes and he is looking more and more like the only one who will stand up for the people.

 

Yes, my fault for not following the OP link. Ya got me there Red.

 

Because you did not give proper attribution regardless of which site it was. And in fact your post makes it appear that it was your work even discounting proper attribution.

 

...between Romney, Gingrich, and Huntsman. Nothing was said about Ron Paul.
