Within my circle of friends, their friends, and groups I am in, I have seen a lot of talk about "revolt" come the convention. Now revolt seems to take many different forms. There are the Paul supporters who want to hi-jack the convention, there are conservatives who have gone the "your way or the highway" route, and people who are just upset their candidate is not the nominee. I recently saw a post demanding we all revolt come convention, and get some other candidate!!
The common thread that all of these versions of revolt have is this, to get rid of Mitt Romney. Now Mitt was not my first pick, in all honesty he was 3rd on my list out of all the candidates. Needless to say he was certainly not at the bottom of my list either. I know Mitt is not perfect, but NONE of the candidates were, and none ever are. Some people seem to have an issue with Mitt's religion (I wrote a blog about that before), some have a problem with the fact he has worked hard and made a good living for him and his family, other's seem to have a problem with the fact as he's gotten older, his beliefs have changed and formed. Whatever the reasons, the time for all of this is past.
Think about this people, especially if you are on the fence concerning our nominee. BO is ruining our country. I have heard the excuse "it's just 4 more years, how much harm can he do?". Seriously? how much harm? he has already done immeasurable harm to our country. The man has kept none of his promises, has sky rocketed our debt, has no regard for our military, no regard for our Constitution. He has already bypassed our Constitution several times, what's to stop him from completely tossing it out if he stays in office? he has shown he cares nothing for America, our principles, our founding fathers. He cares nothing for our future, our laws. If this man is allowed to stay in office for 4 more years, we will NOT have an America come the end of it, and most likely this will be the last election in our country.
Is sticking to your principles, or demanding your "perfect" candidate, really worth it? Is it worth it for our children? I certainly do not think it's worth it. So many complain that the other side won't work with us, or the party won't work with us, has it ever occurred to anyone that for the good of the country sacrifices have to be made? I for one am willing to stand with our founding father's, and sacrifice what's necessary for this country, so we keep the America that we love, and have a country we are proud to call home! I have honestly lost ALL patience with people who are refusing to budge, who refuse to see the big picture, who will vote for someone not on the ballot but then say they did not help Obama. A vote for anyone, other than our nominee, is a vote for BO. Not to mention that this fighting, and bickering, and trying to hi-jack a convention in order to force another nominee? is only hurting us in the long run.....
