Romney wins the Florida Primary

And the Romneyites cheer, while the the “Anyone but Romney” crowd barf out their breakfast. Good day all, it looks like Mittens Obomney won the majority of the primary votes in Florida yesterday and Gingrich looks like someone relieved themselves in his Cheerios.

Of course, I really wasn’t surprised that Obomney won, he spent a ton of money and frankly, Gingrich was off his game. Santorum still hasn’t done much and it looks like the Arcurtans are sending out a spaceship for Ron Paul and all his paulbots.

However, there remains a number of issues. The big one is that Obomney still hasn’t won a majority of the Republican base over. They flat out do not trust him. Now that Florida is out of the way, the next series of Primaries and Caucuses will be coming up. A lot of these are in states that despise Obomney and are a lot more conservative than Florida. In the caucus states, Ron Paul should do fairly well since he has a well organized group of clowns who can flood the caucus system. Obomney has been running for the last 6 years so he also has a large organization.

One of the things I had forgotten was the delegate count. Because Florida set their primary up early and ignored the will of the RNC ((Republican National Committee)), half their delegates will not be seated at the convention. If Obomney doesn’t do well in other states and Gingrich, Santorum and The Fruitcake Paul do well, who knows what will happen at the convention?

Obomney’s organization hasn’t been helping its self with things like Norm Coleman saying Obomney has no intention of repealing Obamacare ((Romney won’t repeal Obamacare)), and this little turd he dropped this morning:

“I’m not concerned about the very poor. We have a safety net there,” Romney told CNN. “If it needs repair, I’ll fix it. I’m not concerned about the very rich, they’re doing just fine. I’m concerned about the very heart of the America, the 90 percent, 95 percent of Americans who right now are struggling.”

From what I hear, this isn’t in context and Obomney was tired from last nights partying. Still, it shows a complete lack of thinking on his party. I do believe the phrase “What the HELL was he thinking?” might be appropriate. I hope he likes the taste of shoe leather. 😉

Now my predictions.

If Obomney wins the nomination, it is possible that a large number of conservative and Tea party voters may stay home. That would guarantee a win by Obama. That might also cause problems on the state and local levels as well with Republican candidates trying to take back the senate and build on their 2010 results. God help us if the Democrats keep the Senate and regain the house! Speaker Pelosi again? EEEEEEEK!

Now I have said I will not vote for Obomney under any circumstances and I meant it. However I WILL show up at the polls to take care of the lower level offices. For president, I would just write in someone I like. I’ve been telling anyone else who has said they will sit this out that they must make sure Obama at least loses the Senate, the House stays republican and the state elections continue crushing the Democrats. Anything else is just plain stupid.

Even if the base doesn’t stay home, there’s still a good chance that Obama will win. However, if he does lose the senate and the house goes further into the republican column, then we have a chance of stopping Obama and possibly removing him from office. His contempt for the rule of law and the Constitution long ago rose to the level of impeachable offenses. With Eric Holder looking at a contempt of Congress charge, Obama needs to keep control of at least one part of congress to avoid a special prosecutor and impeachment.

Now, if Obomney doesn’t get all the delegates he needs to win the nomination, then we have a brokered convention and all bets are off. It’s possible he might still win the nomination in a floor fight, or the delegates could give it to one of the others. It’s also possible we would see a draft movement and one of the up and comers is nominated. ((Sarah Palin, Bobby Jindal, Marco Rubio, Alan West, etc))

If that happens, Obama’s chances of a second term go through the floor and the odds of him retiring to a maximum security prison go through the roof. ((I can hope, can’t I?))

Now, what happens if Obomney gains the nomination and manages to beat Obama? From previous history, Obomney will not be much of an improvement. As I’ve mentioned, his minions are saying that the idea of repealing Obamacare is silly. Obomney will do the usual RINO thing of “Crossing the aisle” to work with the Democrats. What this means is he will drop trou, bend over and tell the Democrats to do whatever they like to him. ((Of course Barney Frank will be out of office by then)) If Obomney doesn’t make the structural changes that this country requires and most people are demanding, at best he will be a one term president and the Republican party will probably collapse and a new third party comes into being.

Now a lot of pundits don’t see how a third party could happen. They need to study a little history. The Republican party came into being as a third party, going from nothing to the White House in 6 years. In all probability, if a third party starts, it will be based on the Tea party movement. They are pretty close to becoming a party if they wanted to. (Currently they do not)

If the Tea Party became a formal political party, you might see a large number of politicians who they have helped into office bolt the Republican party and some of the big money people leaving as well. If say the Koch brothers told the Republicans to take a hike and started giving their money to the new party, the Republicans would probably be history in 2-3 election cycles. All those former Republican pundits would be out in the streets and ignored by pretty much everybody.

Now on the worse case scenarios, If Obama wins and either maintains control of the Senate and/or regains the House, I would expect an outright civil war by 2014 with all the horrors that entails. Without a doubt, the Federal Government would lose and Washington DC would be pretty much burned to the ground. (I don’t see the museums and historical places being damaged, only the bureaucracies offices buildings) For years people have been saying this was going to happen, but they’ve been out on the fringes, right where they belong.

However, a lot of really smart people are noticing that this talk is not staying out in the fringes any longer, it’s moving in towards the center. What you are hearing now are people who know just how bad a civil war would be and don’t want it to happen, saying that they don’t see any alternatives if we continue the way we are going. A large number of these people are former military and have stated they will follow the oath they took when they were sworn in. ((The part about “Enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC))

Scary stuff, and something I think has to be avoided. An all out civil war could kill millions, and most of them would be people on the political left. They have been delusional in how the world works and frankly, most of them won’t touch guns. The people they have been insulting, badgering and threatening for decades also happen to be the most heavily armed segment of the American population and they know how to use their guns.

Like I said, delusional.

So what happens next? We go on with the Primary season and see what shakes out. I’m hoping for the best, but I expect the worse. I have my pen all set for my write in on the ballot in November. In the mean time…

GO PATRIOTS!! 😀
