Why won't Repubs get behind Romney?

Santorum Withdrawal Sentences G.O.P. to Mitt Romney

If you had super hearing in the vicinity of the White House today you’d certainly hear sighs of relief, inauguration committees ordering stationery and the dull impact of endless fist bumps.

Why? Because Rick Santorum just took himself out of the presidential race, leaving Mitt Romney the obvious Republican candidate facing President Obama.


That would be the same Mitt Romney who trails the president 44% to 51% in the latest Washington Post/ABC News poll, mostly because he’s as bloodless as a turnip and is just about as committed to conservative ideals.

Offered the chance to take back the White House if they could just disprove the notion that they are a cabal of rich Easterners without guts or backbone, Republicans will now nominate the author of a vast Massachusetts health bureaucracy who says he hates vast health bureaucracies and whose wife “drives a couple of Cadillacs.”

Super.

We will. The alternative is too scary.

i WILL EVEN THOUGH i DON'T LIKE HIM, MUCH LIKE i DID mCcAIN IN 08.

Republicans will support Romney as he is clearly the better choice. He may not be as conservative as most Republicans would like but he is a whole lot more conservative than Obama.

I think everybody realizes just how much damage Obama could do in a second term and they are not going to take their ball and go home and not play because their candiate didn't win.

Just the judicial appointments alone that Obama will have an opportunity to make in a second four year term should be enough to motivate Republicans to get behind Romney.

It is goofy to look at poll numbers taken during a bitter Republican primary where the Repubs were killing each other rhetorically, essentially doing the dems work for them. Of course during that climate and where no money is being spent pointing out Obama's bad record Obama is going to come out on top.

Once the Repubs are united behind Romney for a couple of months and the Repub party and Super Pacs turn the focus on Obama, THEN lets see what the polling shows to get a more realistic picture of where we stand.

I will vote for Romney, but I won't support him - won't give a dime to the RNC.

His offshore investments are not fully known because his campaign is utilizing an obscure exception in federal ethic laws (http://www.washingtonpost.com/politi...mxS_story.html).

Now why does that remind me of Jeff Immelt of G.E.?

Romney is the GOP's control boy. It's all about the status quo.

The facts don't change - he is like Obama.

The Issue with Romney Is the Issues

Health Care:

Cap-and-Trade:

Ethanol:

Taxes:

Spending:

Wall Street Bailout

Good grief. Romney?

Keep on believing the media lies and persuasion. Big government, either side of the aisle, is a dangerous thing...

President Obama cannot do much without the support of Congress.

Our forefathers set up our country this way so that baseless fear-mongering over one person would be just that-- baseless.

You are wrong about Romney, he will be a very good president. The primary is for all practical purposes over, it is time to united behind the winner. Focus on his strong points and stop the bickering. This bickering over McCain put BO in the White House, so stop it already. LOL!!!
