The GOP primaries are rapidly approaching. And unfortunately, it's beginning to look a lot like previous races, i.e. your choice will be between the lesser of two evils.
The two current front runners, Romney and Gingrich, are just different sides of the same coin. Career politicians who have flip-flopped on so many issues over the years we really have NO idea of what they will actually do if elected. In other words, they are not only liars, but prostitutes. They will say anything they think will get them votes. Neither one is a true conservative. Both have favored harsh gun control laws, of course trying to hide that now. Romney pushed hard for Massachusetts version of Obamacare, and now says he favors repealing Obamacare. Gingrich took millions of dollars from Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae to lobby for them so the big bankers can continue their legal robbery of America. He says this was "consulting fees".
Rick Perry is also a wolf in sheep's clothing. An examination of his tenure as Texas governor shows how he says one thing and does the opposite. Another typical politician.
Ron Paul is too radical to ever garner enough votes in the general election to defeat Obama's 46% of people on the government dole that will always vote for whoever promises to keep their freebies coming.
Which leaves Michelle Bachman, who I like, but has made so many ill-informed statements I wonder if she is intellectually qualified to be POTUS, and Rick Santorum. Santorum has consistently been a true conservative, and seems to have a good grasp of the issues.
Right now, my choice would have to be Santorum. Unfortunately, he is way down on the list of poll favorites.
God help us make wise choices in these elections,
Dumb Farmer
