Among other things, I go by the yardstick of what the candidate has done to harm me and the causes I believe in.

McCain is at the top with McCain-Feingold, McCain-Kennedy, and lately McCain-Leiberman.

Rudy-tooty is next with suing gun manufacturers and distributors and backing groups like Handgun Control.

Huckabee, while he hasn’t caused harm outside of Arkasas that I know of seems to be a clever talker without much depth. His talk is a mile wide and an inch deep. Things like Saddam having hid his WMD in Jordan are genuinely scary.

Then there is Mitt Romney, immaculate resume, intelligent, and on the right side of issues that matter most to me. He is better on the issues than the other candidates and infinitely better on the issues than the Democrats. The only real negative is that he’s not as inspiring or likable as a Reagan or an Obama. He’ll have to make up for that with a rational command of the issues. Overall, I think we are blessed to have a candidate like Romney.
