“No, never was a fan of Mitt. Good business sense, bad other things.”
Well, while McCain was woefully unprepared for the economic crisis and made things about disastrous with stupid comments “fundamentals..economy are sound” and the “not really familiar with economic issues” comment, it is clear that Romney (and also Giuliani) would both have been godsends for us, ripping Obama to shreds on the economic issue because of massive executive experience.
At the very beginnings of the republicans starting to declare for the primaries, I stated that there were two I'd NEVER, EVER vote for. That was Guiliani and McCain. I have always been a woman of my word and McCain has not said any words which have changed my mind. I truly don't know what I'll do in the prez race. Down ballot I will vote for each and every conservative candidate, perhaps regardless of party. In my local races, there is a democrat running who is a great guy and much more conservative than the republican that is running. That happens alot in the Deep South.
Giuliani wanted to ban handguns, was pro-abortion and supported gay rights, while Romney said he would ban semi-auto weapons and he was pro-choice until he decided to run for president.
I wouldn’t have voted for McCain if he had chosedn Giuliani or Romney, and most of my pro-life and pro-2nd Amendment friends wouldn’t have voted for him, either.
Palin’s the one we’re all voting for...
