Romney May Be The End Of The Line For The Republican Establishment

Mitt Romney’s comments about 47 percent of Americans being dependent on government and locked in to vote for President Obama highlight a fundamental reality in American politics today: The gap between the American people and the political class is bigger than the gap between Republicans and Democrats in Washington, D.C.

He may be the end of the line for the republican establishment , but, it may be the beginning of a war if he loses the election.
Not a question of it happening , it a matter of when.

Agreed 5:10. That is why the government is purchasing hollow points at the rate they are. They know what is coming as well as you and I do. It is exactly what they want-an excuse to eradicate the dissenters.

Dr. Paul was the best hope of the country. Romney is just like Obama, more wars, mandated healthcare, people are corporations, same sex marriage, pro gun control, etc...
