Romney 'to endorse McCain'

[Hazcat]

Former Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney will endorse former rival John McCain, officials have said.

Mr Romney will release his 288 delegates and urge them to back Mr McCain.

The former Massachusetts governor dropped out of the race last week. It became apparent that toppling McCain would be near impossible.

Romney wants another shot at the prez job. He's betting McCain loses this year and he can run in 2012. This was the "statesman" thing to do.

Something I find interesting is the position in the media where they're talking about the fact that he's a Mormon. They're saying that contributed substantially to the failure of his campaign, and I just don't see that. His campaign failed because he was a self-promoting stuffed shirt who said whatever he thought people wanted to hear, and everybody could see through that. PLUS he didn't handle the whole "Mormon" controversy very well anyway. He could have put that on the back burner with some solid policy, but he didn't have any.
He's not presidential material and, in this case, the system worked perfectly.

Only problem is NONE of them are Presidential material, where are the Roosevelts (Teddy NOT Franklin) Lincolns Jeffersons and Washingtons. You know, people with principles

The problem w/ Ron Paul is that the Media hates him because he is a threat. But there in lies the problem. No Media>No Chance. Oh yeah theres that whole "HIV ers on the island" thing. I love his stand on guns and a lot of other views but everyone with any pull is against him for the lessing of government. Man i am torn. Vote against the Dems. or waste it on the man I want.  The more i think bout it the more bummed I get.

No one can win if people say "I agree with a lot of his views but the enemy (socialist biased media) hates him so I'm going to vote for a scum bag so I'm not on the losing side" THIS AIN'T A F*&#ing CARD GAME, If you're on the losing side you still have your self respect, what do you have if you vote for the ENEMY OF YOUR RIGHTS.
In case you need help figuring it out, You place your bets with a BOOKIE, you place your vote based on your BELIEFS.

Agreed, tomboggan - 100%.

What ever happened to all of us backing a single candidate such as a write-in? We seem to be doing what we do best - be self-reliant, which in this case will get us put down. So we going with one name and which name might that be? Just asking.....

So am I to vote for my belief or my beliefs? There is one thought which states

" THIS AIN'T A F*&#ing CARD GAME, If you're on the losing side you still have your self respect, what do you have if you vote for the ENEMY OF YOUR RIGHTS.

OR

am i to vote for the more likely to defeat the "Greater Enemy" to my beliefs? As in

" THIS AIN'T A F*&#ing CARD GAME,

SO I USE MY VOTE AGAINST WHOM IS THE BIGGER 

ENEMY OF YOUR RIGHTS

.
card games never made me lose sleep tombogan03884 and it be a sucker bet against me to say to me "this election hasn't". Just saying man think it over. Or better yet write in Elvis and sleep well. Man i am not at that point where that sounds easier/better than finding a solution due to the fact that "Friendlys" are not that helpful and the "Enemy"is over HELPFUL!

Whats the Kid to do MAN! Tis the question?   
But like so many others say "worry 'bout it then" is hard to do Brothers and Sisters.............looks to be another restless night.
