Similarly, Romney claims it was others who ultimately persuaded him to run for governor of Massachusetts in 2002. In drawing comparisons between his gubernatorial campaign and his time at SLOC, Romney cites four principles that guided him:
Know why you're running.
Assemble the right people for the team.
Carry out a strategic audit.
Communicate the vision and challenge the team to stretch. He applied these same principles to Massachusetts' budget, and they appear to show up again in the economic agenda he touts on the campaign trail.

It’s hard to believe that there could be a more appropriate, competent leader for the GOP right now than Mitt Romney - proven leadership! And he’s proven it over and over and over!

Romney should, at the right time, articulate a clear policy of ‘Economic Patriotism’/’Fair Trade’.

If the RNC jams Rudy, Romney or McCain down my throat, I will throw up.

Mitt will bring us “change” all right. We’ll change to nationalized health care; and we’ll change amnesty for illegals; and we’ll start asking lawyers if it’s okay for the President to defend the country.
How about we change to following the Constitution.

The only “change” that involves Romney is his recent change to being a conservative when he started to campaign.

If Ghouliani gets the nomination the party will be divided and irrevocably broken. If Thompson gets the nomination it will be the most disorganized, chaotic, undisciplined campaign seen in recent presidential elections. And we lose with either of those guys.
With Romney we get a united party and someone with a proven track record of success.
And the Republicans will win.

Alan Keyes was in town yesterday and creamed Mitt on the gay issue on KKOH the local talker. He was in fine form.
