What is "hilarious" is that you believe that the letter that a person places after their name means anything. Yeah, just like wearing a flag lapel pin makes one patriotic'''

Former congressman Virgil Goode (R-VA), best known for his malicious attacks on Muslims and immigrants, is running as the Constitution Party’s candidate for president. While as a third party candidate he likely to get little support, Public Policy Polling in a recent survey of Virginia voters found that “Goode is pulling 9% of the vote, bringing Romney down seven points to 35% and hardly moving Obama to 49%.” Goode yesterday in an interview with Steve Deace, a conservative talk show host and Romney critic, said that he seeks to exploit Romney’s flip-flops on issues like abortion rights, gay rights and gun control to win voters who want to support a candidate who “hasn’t wavered on pro-life, pro-traditional marriage, Second Amendment and those things.”

So this Virgil guy thinks that the Constitution only applies to people that think like him...

The green party candidate is also on the ballot, but the dems as usual honor the constitution and haven't tried any kind of thuggery unlike the GOP that will crap all over the constitution and get people thrown off the ballot that don't like.
That is full blown fascist tactics.

Dont do what republicans do, employ mafia people or tactics, it pays off in the long run and a lot less messier.

Why do Republicans hate freedom?

I mean seriously people should be free to vote for who they like. You should not kick people off the ballot, because you think they might hurt your chances of winning.

Even if Virgil Goode were removed from the ballot in Virginia, his supporters would just write his name in. The fact is they will not vote for Romney.

Some might, but i doubt many will. The right wingers will just vote for Willard, even though they were the ones responsible for getting him off the ballot in the first place. That's how demented in the head the right wingers are.

It does appear to me that the GOP is bordering on fascism these days. It is all about power. They care nothing for governance or actual democracy. They are just angry they cannot just buy the election and be done with it.

You won't be laughing so hard if Goode takes 4% of the votes away from the Republicans. The race in Virginia is close, and Goode's entry could very well hand Obama a win.
And you wouldn't know a communist from a hole in the ground. Good old fashioned All-American Democrats are gonna whip your butt again.
