		<description>I have no problem saying tha Mitt Romney continues to lie and change position on the issues.

We as a Nation, deserve a President that is honest and for the people.  Like Abe Lincoln was.

It is up to us to choose the person we want for president.  We all kow that media bias is controlling who people vote for.  And some of the mainstream media is getting paid very well for what hey report.

www.catholic.org put a great article that supports Mike Huckabee and talks about the un fairness that is happening in this race. The article is called "Let Huckabee speak"  It is front page! Please go and read it.  Not only are Protestants and Evangelicals supporting Mike, so are Catholics.  As well as people who live with morals an values, common Americans are choosing Mike Huckabee.  Please look carefuly at the candidates.

		<description>I would never vote for Mr. McCain because he is a flip flopper. Consider that he equivocates on two of the most important issues of our time: (1) immigration, and (2) taxes. He attempts to label Mr. Romney as such, but in reality, it is precisely the opposite.</description>

		<description>The Clintons will complete the cannibalization of Sen. Obama, and then they will have the volatile John McCain for dessert, if that's what the Republicans serve up.  McCain will succumb to them quite easily, I predict, because of his sympatheties and vulnerabilities.  But it will take a different set of tools than they have in their box to destroy a conservative with a great record and a great mind, a steady hand, and a good heart--Mitt Romney.  They'll pull out their worst--much like is happening already in SC--because they want this election in the worst way.  But Mitt Romney has the strength and character and intelligence to bring the differences into bold relief, and Americans being the good people they are, will readily see this and make the better choice.  Mitt Romney for America!</description>

		<description>Steven Rinehart, I have read your same whiny post on several blogs now.  Also being a Mormon, the only thing I can tell you is to get over it.  There are good people everywhere and there are a few ignorant around too.  Including Mormons. There are fanatical, bigoted in every religion. 
And blaming present day people for what their ancestors is stupid.  I sure as heck don't want to be blamed for what my ancestors did.  
You really need to get a life.</description>

		<description>All three are good candidates.  I am not a republican, but in this election after watching the democratic candidates v. the republicans, I can see how some would be tempted.  Can the democrats not have someone somewhere who is intelligent, likeable, and has some experience with which to lead a country?  Anywhere?

Incidentally, if you are going for pure electability, I think Rudy would have the best chance if he could make it out of the convention.  He draws from many of the independants and has a chance of taking New York, a democratic stronghold.  Any republican who can win New York would be very difficult for a democrat to beat.  That aside, I think McCain, Giuliani and Romney are all electable in a national election.  That, I think is the big reason they have survived to this point.  I am impressed by Romney's intelligence, I think that anytime you have a difficult situation, you throw your smartest, most experienced person at it.  In this case, I would throw Romney.  I think he is the most likely to bring about the most good for the economy, and the people of our country.  That said, I really don't think we can go wrong with McCain, Giuliani or Romney.  

Now, if we could get the democrats to throw us a new set of candidates...</description>

		<description>I don't believe Romney is electable.  The dems will kill him on his flip-flops (abortion, gun control, gay rights).  They're also going to jump on the fact that his father was born in Mexico, hired illegal personnel for his mansion, had several sanctuary cities in Massachusetts, etc.   Plus he has no foreign policy experience whatsoever.  Poll after poll shows that he'd get killed against any of the democrats running. I don't see a New Englander winning the south against Obama or even the Clintons.  Our best hope is McCain, who can actually pull in independents and will have a serious standing against the democrats on National Security.  Even though not everyone agrees with him he has proven integrity and the dems would have nothing on him.</description>

		<description>I am even more impressed than ever with Mitt after watching the debates last night. His strength isn't just in the economy, Mitt showed his strength on all of the issues.  He has the support of the conservative base of the party now that Fred has left the contest, and will easily beat John McCain in the Florida primary!
Go Mitt/Thompson for president/vp!!!</description>

		<description>I'm Mormon and I was stationed for a brief period at Cecil Field Naval Air Station in Flordia.  The people down there treated me so bad for being Mormon, I almost couldn't bear it.  They'd tell me I was a devil worshipper and brainwashed, and try to convince me that they knew more about what I believed than I did.  The wife of one guy I worked with wouldn't let me in their house for dinner on the 4th of July after he invited me over because she said I wasn't Christian, so I went and watched a move alone.  It hurts to be a victim of discrimination -- and I bet Romney knows the feeling.  I hope God forgives them, because it's hard for me to do it.  It's these same "Christians" that killed my ancestors and ran them out of Illinois.</description>

		<description>I like both Romney and McCain as candidates, but I support Mitt Romney. I've sat in councils in my life and I know that most people could make up bills and vote like McCain has done. That's not too impressive, nor does it prove a man or give him superior experience. 

Mitt, on the other hand, knows how to lead! Take a look at his work on the Olympics. He's turned more disasters into successes than anyone in the field. That's influence and that's leadership. Go Mitt!</description>
