Today, virtually half of the nation has the chance to do something for the country. Half of our country is called on to be patriots. Half of our citizens have the option of sacrificing a brief moment of their time and perform their civic duty for the greater good. Its Super Tuesday, and if you are in one of 24 states, today it is your right, duty, and it should be your honor to vote (24 states have primaries today with 43 primaries in total – 21 republican primaries and 22 democratic primaries).
Those who are so fortunate will be a part of something great. For today its not every vote that counts, its every vote in a little less than half of the country that matters. And that half will likely decide who our presidential candidates will be. It may not be over after tonight, but it will be a lot closer. Half of the populous gets to be heard while only a few already have been. The rest of us may not even matter. I won’t. In North Carolina our primary isn’t until May 6th… by then this contest will likely have come to a close. I hope not, but history is not in my favor.
And those in that half that care about our country and the purpose of its founding… those that value smaller government, lower taxes, personal responsibility and free will… those that think we are in a monumental fight against Islamic extremism and terrorists who seek to destroy our next breath… those of you who want to protect our borders, our sovereignty, and our honor…. I beg of you to vote for a true Conservative in this race. We have to take our country back before we lose ourselves to socialism and global greed. We have to take our nation back before our sovereign rights and Constitutional guarantees are gone forever.
I can’t tell you who to vote for, but if you agree with the above than I can tell you who doesn’t deserve your vote. John McCain certainly does not. Mike Huckabee does not. Ron Paul does not. Obviously Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama do not.
That leaves only two choices:
- Vote against John McCain and cast your ballot for Mitt Romney
- Write-in Fred Thompson and send a message to the party and the American people that we want to return to our Federalist foundation and take our country back.
Ideally, I’d like to vote the later, but fearing a John McCain Republican nominee as much as any Conservative should…. if I were to vote I would probably vote Romney. Romney is the closest thing to a Conservative left in the race. He has the business and economic credentials to set our fiscal policy on the right track and he’s also closer to being the citizen servant that our founders envisioned running for office. He’s not a career politician who has spent decades attacking conservative ideals and he’s not beholden to special interests or politicians across the aisle.
He’s no Fred Thompson… but he’s no John McCain either. And for that reason alone, he is worthy of your vote.
Ya, we are only going to be able to get to hope that Romney has any chance,
Huck or McCain, Conservatives!?!
It’s obvious that they are not. This is becoming a big disappointment, I was all excited to actually see all these Republicans canidates and was hoping for some solid steps to strengthen up the party after the years of being adrift in the Congress and all, but all we have is this mess, more damage is being done by McCain and Huck then the Demo’s have done ever.
People are sheep, being led to the slaughter. McCain and Huck, if they team up for P/VP or if it’s McCain/Lieberman (which I’m sure that is being considered strongly), it will be a socail program nightmare, because I think that McCain will give the Demo’s anything they want if they back off of the war issue.
But I don’t think that the GOP will win the White House on either of those tickets anyway…the Conservatives have been shunned.
