I'm guardedly optimistic that Romney would be far better than many believe, but it's a certainty that Romney is a damn sight better than Obama. Also while a Republican Congress could minimize further damage, repeal of Obamacare would be impossible with Obama in office and I shudder to think of Obama nominating a replacement for Justice Kennedy on the Supreme Court.

Unless Virginia changes having only two candidates on the Republican Primary ballot-------we have only two choices in the Primary. Romney or Paul. At this time there are no write-ins.

At this time unless the ballot is changed in Virginia I will either not vote in the Primary or I will do a protest vote for Paul in order to provide some delegates for the state convention who have the possibility of forming coalitions to affect the selection of the Vice President and the Party Platform.

At this time I do not believe that Republican voters have yet gotten the message that there will only be Paul and Romney on the Primary ticket.

A lot of people are in for a surprise at the polls. I believe firmly that all of the candidates in debates should be on the ballot. Yes, I know about the rules-------the rules were wrong and should never have been approved by RPV as drawn up.

As I understand ------- the redistricting which the Democrats in the General Assembly want to control is another factor as they challenge the lines of the election districts. Of course, if the lines for the voting districts are still not firm then how can the rules for signatures be made to apply------as the requirement was to have .X number of votes per Congressional District.?

Well I have worn this subject out on SI--------so will leave it alone.
