Capt/ Call: You got it right. It is Romney vs. Obama. That should be a very easy decision to make for those who aren't leftists and for Republicans who aren't given to hating so-called RINOS more than they do liberals.
Howard & Tad: It seems that every four years, a certain number of Republicans insist on overlooking the primaries and pretending that there are all-powerful members of the RNC who decide who will be the presidential nominee of the GOP.
In 2012, Romney won the lion's share of the primaries, just as McCain did in 2008. I don't know how many times I have to repeat that America, by and large, is not a very conservative nation. Except for a handful of states, it is only slightly to the right of center. You should probably be reminded that McCain led in the polls as late as September, which is when the economy crashed, handing the election to Obama.
Mac: I like the Tea Party, but their influence is limited, generally by geography. You might recall that the GOP could have easily won Senate elections in Delaware and even defeated Harry Reid in Arizona, except that Tea Party candidates won the GOP primaries and then lost badly in the general elections.
Robert: I knew that sentence would trip up some people, but I appreciate that you persevered and emerged at the end of it triumphant and unscathed.
