Nah, Bert! Nugent will be thrown under the bus like every other conservative that has supported Romney. A couple of other forums I visit, has already raked him across the coals.

How loud will his praise be when (not if) Romney compromises on Second Amendment issues?

Concentrate on a conservative House and Senate, and be very, very, very, careful about which appointees they approve.
Make sure the Romnster toes the line.

Short of my CongressCritter and Senators, I have very little influence on who gets elected to the House and Senate.

That's okay.The Nuge has guns. And will show up at the white House if Romney strays.

Romney won't even get a chance to toe the line because it is an impossibility for Romney to beat Obama...
Here is video of Romney saying how he got the money for his state and for the olympics... it's simply disgusting that he is getting any tea party votes and that he has the balls to critize Newt and Rick for earmarks Romney is even bragging about getting money from the DOE http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/video/romney-video-show-support-earmarks-15831684 (http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/video/romney-video-show-support-earmarks-15831684)
If that werent bad enough there is evidence that he recomended to Obama that he use the individual mandate... he tried to tell us that Romneycare is OK because it was a "state issue" but clearly he recomended it to Obama as a Federal mandate...
http://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewkaczynski/mitt-romneys-advice-for-obamacare-look-at-romney (http://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewkaczynski/mitt-romneys-advice-for-obamacare-look-at-romney)
Here is a Romney advisor explaining that they have no intention of repealing Obamacare
http://ricochet.com/main-feed/Norm-Coleman-We-re-Not-Going-to-Repeal-Obamacare (http://ricochet.com/main-feed/Norm-Coleman-We-re-Not-Going-to-Repeal-Obamacare)


Romeny is our weakest link... he is the candidate that Obama wants to run against because Obama know that Romney cant touch him on Obamacare, he also plans on using class warfare on Mr 1%...

I have almost NO faith in Romney to choose a conservative Judge for the Supreme Court as his record shows he picks liberals..

I don't understand the logic of some people when they say that we can get the house and senate if we are stuck with Obama... I think people just vote dem down the line when they vote for a dem President.

Ted Nugent is as much an idiot as Ann Coulter for supporting our weakest link and quite frankly I question their consevatism and judgement now.

Every time they fill up their car, people will forget how much they dislike Romney, and realize that they despise Obama. The American public will forgive you for a lot of things, but not screwing with their automobiles. The majority of Americans live outside the central cities, in the suburbs and rural. It isn't a question of liking our cars, it's a question of needing our cars. All the elites, sitting on the coasts simply don't realize this. They think food, for example, magically transports itself to the super market. The don't notice that all the fresh produce in their farmers markets was driven in. We people out here in the burbs are allowed that disconnect with reality. And Obozo has been bragging about crewing with us. He's on the air constantly taking credit for high gas prices whether he realizes it or not. And the media can't save him, gas prices are too immediate to be hidden.

These idiots knew that Obama wanted to necessarily skyrocket our energy prices in 08 when he said it with his own mouth and they didnt give a damn...
Romney hasnt articulated what he would do about Gas prices... Obama is winning that battle right not cause stupid people are blaming speculators and Obama is telling them that the middle east is who is to blame for the uncertainty etc.. they are buying it...Newt is the only candidate that has a plan on what to do and has gotten out infront of the issue with solutions... Romney has no ideas and no solutions.. he is simply an establishment puppet.. they like him cause they can pull his strings.. he has no real convictions so it is easy to get him to do what they want.. The GOP establishment has no interest in the tea party or social conservatives.. they like things the way they are and they just use us for our votes like Rush said...

Dont get me wrong, I'll vote for Romeny in the General if he is the nominee, cause unlike our POTUS I'm sure that Romney does love our Country, I just don't think Romney has what it takes to beat Obama.. he cant draw enough of a contrast between him and Obama IMO

Maybe you should have been part of us supporting Bachmann or Cain?  You're insistence on them being "too extreme" has come back to bite us.  Now we have Romney.  Cain or Bachmann would have a vortex of conservative/independent votes funneling in if one of them were still in it.

Just sayin....

I don't remember it that way...  She would have voted and supported Cain had he been in, but was consistent in saying they are too extreme (Cain and Bachmann) for the country or to get the nomination.  She went from hoping West jumps in, to Newt.

Josie, please correct if I am wrong.

Taxed, I am a realistic person... I like Cain, I like Bachmann, I even like Santorum, but do you not see what is happening? Santorum like Bachmann is giving the liberal and RINO media too much material when it comes to social issues.. it is literally freaking out the independents and moderates... like it or not we need their votes to win as well as the base....
Santorum is losing votes daily because he concentrated too much of the social issues... Newt has played his cards right, he doesnt over do it, but you know where he stands... I liked Cain a lot and still do, but when all that dirt came out about him and it became a distraction... I believed him at first, but when that last woman came out with 4am phone records I felt he would end up hurting our party if he stayed in... it makes for too much of a distraction. Just sayin  :closedeyes:

Indys and moderates will not vote for Hussein.  A majority of them would vote for the alternative to Hussein.

No, it's because he is a damn lib!  He is even against right-to-work legislation.  He is no conservative.

I'm not sure where he stands, except confirmed liberal on energy.  He isn't all that smart if he buys into AGW.  I really like Newt.  I'm a Georgian, and personally, I would like him to be President, because I have access to him. Still, I don't want him to be President.  Over Hussein? Yes.  Over a conservative?  No.

You would rather have confirmed liberal positions over a conservative with distractions?  Distractions go away.  They get disproven as time goes on.

Considering the amount of money Romney has spent, his support by the party establishment, the fact that the disaffected Republicans have had their votes split by a number of candidates, his favorable press (he wins in Arizona - a state with a large Mormon population it gets played up, he loses in Colorado a battleground state i it gets played down), and I wouldn't doubt he's made a corrupt deal with Ron Paul; I'd say Santorum is hanging tough. If Romney can denied a victory on the first ballot, his support might evaporate. BTW, we must never lose sight of the importance of Congress.

Bottom line?
Short of being dragged to polls by the secret police and a large caliber hand weapon being placed next to mt skull, I wouldn't vote for Obozo.
And there's a good chance not even then.
A quick and merciful death is preferable to a slow and torturous demise.
I'd bite the bullet on Romney, because the alternative is too horrible to contemplate.
I think the majority of the people of the US, prefer ANYONE to Obozo.

He has no interest in curbing the ethanol scam by the leftists, simply because he knows where his money comes from.
That is not a Conservative, that is someone more interested in his political life, than that of the consumer.
Its also a reflection on where he stands on the EPA.

I understand that there are a couple of things that we arent going to agree with Newt about, but IMO he most definately is the most viable of the candidates we have to choose from.... I think if he is good enough for Sarah he's good enough for me I truly believe that he is the only one that can beat Obama... people say a coke can can beat Obama, I think those people highly underestimate what is going to happen...

For what its worth Josie, Newt really is our only real option.
I used to be a big fan of Newts but he lost his core values along the way, but I have no doubt with pressure from the Tea party Freshmen class coming in, we can keep him on track.
