I agree with you. Romney hasn’t wavered in any of the debates in his stance concerning illegal immigration, government spending, the need for lower taxes, and the necessity to keep up the fight against what he always calls “global jihad.” I like that he doesn’t use Bush’s meaningless “global terrorism” line.
The tough anti-illegal immigration sheriff from Arizona who is a Romney backer points out that Romney was the first governor to have his state police trained and certified by ICE to go after illegal aliens. Romney also insisted that there be English immersion, not bilingual education, for students in Massachusetts who can’t speak English. I noticed that Massachusetts ranks in the top five states in educational achievement in a recent survey. And Romney is an executive who’s had to meet payrolls and has created jobs and turned around failing companies. He’s also familiar with international business and the growing economic competition from China and India. These are all unique qualifications that no other Republican or Democrat can match, certainly not McCain or Huckabee.
Mitt’s problem is credibility. He claimed in the last debate that he would deport all 12 million illegal immigrants, which is impossible. There aren’t 12 million jail cells available to process these people.
More realistic and honest: Deport the 2 million illegals who have a criminal record. That would be doable.

Bears repeating. And is why I'm supporting him myself.
