Does Romney EVER spend time in Massachussetts?? It seems like all he ever does anymore is visit one of 3 places: NH, Iowa, and SC..? Maybe he should get back to Massachussetts and actually fix the Sodomite-"Marriage" Problem?.

1. That's what you do when you run for President. (Just a hint, those states hold key primaries)

2.How should he "fix" the Sodomite marriage problem?

“This makes me sick,” Costa said. “Your personal faith is not game in politics. It’s a private matter.”

Religion isn't a private matter for candidates seeking office because religion or the lack thereof informs their decisions if they are elected.

Any voter who votes for a pol with the letters NY or MA after the candidate's name needs his/her head examined.

. . . yet your tagline comes from John Adams . . .

Its a shame because in 2008 the Republicans look like they are going to split in two.

Yeah you see some mass people get their knickers in a twist because I said some generalization about their pervert infested public school system.

Please cite your sources. And could you make it quick, I've got to get to my homosexual indoctrination class.

Mike Pence doesn't pay for duplicate posts JSDude1.

You ARE posting under two different handles now aren't you?

You responded to my post #68 intended for JSDude1 with your current handle, "theworkersarefew".

You're just too obvious pal. You might pull that crap over on the DUmmies at DU, but people pay attention to stuff like that over here at FR.

The democrats and some cluless Republicans are starting the "divide and conquer" routine earlier this year, possible because Allen is in a tight Senate race.

It is important that we ALL realize this and not allow differences over individual candidates tospill over into the vitriol that I saw here in 2000, when disgruntled supporters of those who lost to Bush spent more time trasing Bush than thinking about defeating Gore.

I think Romney is probably the best candidate as far as appealing to the middle while avoiding alienating the right, but the time is early, yet. Vindictive attacks against any of the current candidates only serve to insult and alienate their supporters and make it more difficult for the 2008 campaign, whoever wins.

Rats attempting this divisional strategy show up here and post stuff about candidates, and then clueless Freepers happily join in, trashing whichever candidate is the target of moment. This is why the Guiliani theads draw people who attack his private life, and position on certain social issues, the Romney threads are full of his "liberalism" and talk about how he can't get elected because of the evangelicals, and why Senator Allen has detractors who spend too much time dissecting his every word.

My suggestion is that everyone pay attention to the 2006 election, and wait until after November to spend a lot of time on potential presidential candidates. It is possible that groans and complaints about Senator Allen are further damaging his campaign, and I want him to get re-elected!!! We need him in the Senate!

At any rate, I hope people will be more discerning about who says what on these threads. There are lots of pot-stirrers starting to show up.

We are two different people, posting from two different computers, posting I would suspect, from two different states.

Now Answer the question.

This Evangelical has issues not with his Mormon faith but with his abortion stand. It is apparent that his position on the abortion issue is formed by political contingencies. Both Bill Clinton and Al Gore were pro-life when they were running for office in states where this is what got them the most votes. When they sought national office as Democrats they had no problem changing their position once again so as to attract the most votes. It seems Romney is following the same political strategy. I do not see this as a principled stand. I do not see him as trustworthy when it comes to appointing a supreme court justice in the mold of Scalia, Thomas, Alito, or Roberts.

"outed" is a common term in your world isn't it?

WHat is Romney's position on the Department of Education?

What is Romney's position on the Medicare entitlement?

What is Romney's position on funding for NEA?

or the Legal Services corporation? or PBS?

Where will Romney cut spending?

Romney has fought aganist teacher's unions, standardized testing and is for school choice.

What is Romney's position on the Medicare entitlement?

I'm guessing that he feels it needs to be fixed, just like every Republican politician.

What is Romney's position on funding for NEA?

Complete non-issue. The NEA will always get funding.

or the Legal Services corporation? or PBS?

Another non issue. For good or bad, PBS is here to stay and no one cares.

Where will Romney cut spending?

I'm sure he will take a look at the budget and make the necessary cuts when needed. He has done the same as Governor of Massachusetts, quite well I may add.

Not true.Millions of us care and a hundred house conservatives have been fighting to abolish funding.

I look on religion with skepticism but I don't let that color my voting a candidate. Anyone doing that would be labeled a bigot on FR and the label would be accurate.

If your boy Spence thinks that the DOE,Medicare,funding for the NEA,legal services and PBS are winning issues, his campaign is dead in the water.

Tell Spence that the Presidential race is about big ideas, not petty fighting about funding.

Better yet don't tell him. I can't wait to see his platform.
