Sadie Fields says she’s for Mitt Romney (Georgia Christain Alliance)
The Atlanta Journal ^ | 4 Feb 2008 | Galloway and Kenper

Posted on 02/04/2008 8:55:20 PM PST by elizabetty

After remaining on the sidelines for months, Sadie Fields, the chairman of the Georgia Christian Alliance, on Monday took the stage with GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney at a Georgia Tech rally.

Fields stood right behind Rick Santorum, the former U.S. senator from Pennsylvania, and gave her personal endorsement of Romney in an interview afterwards.

“I believe that Governor Romney is the best man to run the country for the next eight years. He’s the only candidate running who has created jobs,” said Fields, whose Christian Alliance — formerly the Georgia Christian Coalition — is the most active religious conservative political group in the state.

Since early last year, Fields had refused to make an endorsement in the Republican presidential contest, declaring that none of them appealed to her.

But on Monday she said that she found McCain to be unacceptable because of his sponsorship of compromise bills on immigration and the environment, and because of his backing of the McCain-Feingold campaign finance reform bill — which Fields described as an attack on free speech.

On Saturday, Fields had declared an endorsement of McCain by U.S. Sens. Johnny Isakson and Saxby Chambliss to be “disappointing.”

When asked about Mike Huckabee, Fields simply said, “I believe Romney is the best qualified to handle our economic problems.”

Wake up, people! John McCain is the Democrat candidate in the Republican primary. And he is pimping Mike Huckabee for delegates.

Are Christains some sort of Mormon sect?

Actually I did something really weird.

In 2006 I began researching the people who were rumored to be running for President and on Jan 3, 2007 I decide Mitt Romney was by far the most intelligent, honest, man of the highest character in the race.

I believe in meritocracy and none of these candidates can hold a candle to Mitt Romney in the COMPETENCE department.

No. It's a slow and boring news day so I'm just trying to irritate Christains.
