I've campaigned for him as far back as the 90’s and I've donated to him and will continue to do so as long as he runs.
We may not like Romney, he's only above Paul and Huntsman on my list, but we're not the ones who are going to make the call on who wins the election. It's the mushy, uninformed middle.
Unless we end up with Jerry Sandusky as our nominee, we're going to win going away.
Again, the danger isn't losing the Presidency, we've got that covered, it's that we could lose the chance to get a REAL SOLID CONSERVATIVE in that office.
Good post.
I disagree on the part about winning this election.
Romney is not electable. He WILL lose.
The 8th reason not listed by Hawkins is that a sizeable portion of the conservative base will desert him. He is Obama lite.
Anyone voting for Romney in the primary because they think he will win in the general is totally fooling himself.
Romney’s track record is as a loser. He will continue those losing ways.
Is that Mitt Romney's name in a past life?
Romney will take a shellacking from the better liberal, 0bama.
Haven't we learned the lessons of '08 yet?
The very good news is that, the so-called “middle” folks are “center-right folks.
Don't be fooled by the low approval ratings he gets today. Part of it includes liberals who were disappointed at him that he's not liberal enough. In the voting booth, however, they'll cast their votes for him.

There’s no way that’s true.
I can guarantee that if Romney is our nominee, we lose the general.
