No zot here, sorry.
So true. Republicans need to stop letting the liberal press pick our candidates for us.
Romney has well grounded policies which he articulates without name calling and tantrums.
Romney has a workable immigration plan, that does not grant amnesty or some pretend fine, which would surely be waived.
Romney has an Energy policy and DOES NOT believe in Global Warming,
Romney has a depth of understanding on the economy and any number of critical issues.
Romney believes in Judicial restraint.
Romney will NOT handcuff the military in the execution of their duties.
Romney has realistic foreign policy objectives.
Romney supports Israel.
I agree with you 100%. Excellent logic.
If, heaven forbid, McCain were to get the nomination, all the MSM would be digging up dirt on him. If Republicans have been at the receiving end of his foul-mouthed tirades, how many Democrat Senators have been? Don’t you think they’d all come forward with horror stories about McCain suggesting he’s a whack job? Combine that with stories about his age, his bout with malignant melanoma, and his six years being tortured in a prison camp, and you’d have the American people thinking long and hard about putting this geriatric in charge of the nuclear button. His so-called electability would vanish in an instant.
I got a reason. Because he is the best candidate running. He has run things, is smart, speaks well, can lead and at least gives lip service to conservatives. The rest of them tell you they will be liberals on immigration and the economy. I’ll take my chances with Mitt compared to the rest of the pack.
Romney wasn’t my first choice, but he’s the only choice left as far as I am concerned. I honestly don’t know WHAT I am going to do if McLame ends up with the nomination.
Actually, there’s very little difference between McCain and Romney. Both have a better success rate at implementing the liberal agenda than do the democrats. Both are Kennedy’s useful idiots.
I saw the same report. And did you notice the picture CBS ran of Santorum to accompany his comment about McCain’s temperament? Rick looked like the village idiot. I was screaming at the television.
They won't have to do any digging. There's enough waiting on the surface in plain sight.
Yup, tons. But this one reason above all is enough to make my mind up about McCain. There's gotta be a reason the libs like him so much, and anyone they like can't be good.
When The Boston Globe endorsed McCain a few weeks back that was the clincher in my decision not to vote for him.
When pressed to answer a question about illegal immigrants in his home state, Sen. McCain refuses to answer, while his supporters tell a woman who wants him to answer the question to shut up and she is thrown out of the town hall meeting. See the video here:
