You are right on—and at least Romney as president (of course I too hope he doesn't get the GOP nomination), a man who will do and say anything to get elected will behave himself until his second term allows him to do as he truly wishes—by then an overwhelming majority of Tea Party conservatives will own Capital Hill and block his real socialist nature.

I will just make one point about your statement. That Romney will wait until his second term to do what he really wants.

Why do you assume he “really wants” to do anything?

I’m not completely cynical but obviously he was liberal in Mass. because that’s what got him elected. I know Newt displayed some of the same elasticity during the past few years.

I’d say there are only two true blue candidates on that stage - Santorum and Paul. Perry seems very sincere but he hails from Texas. Santorum lost reelection rather than go moderate.
