I really don’t understand the distate for Romney. Yes I understand that he put into place a program that put in place the program for Obamacare. But isn’t that what converatives wants at least initally? We want state rights? Right? So he pushed forever a plan under state rights to fix the healthcare problem in a way he thought was reasonable. Now we can disagree with him that that was not a conservative value within the state.. but that’s doesn’t mean he would choose that nationally. I believe there is a difference. Romney certainly is far more moral than Newt from what we know, there is no denying that. The question is will he support conservative values. Personally Romney’s issue of supporting a localized healthcare plan is far more conservative than Newt supporting a obscene immigration policy.

If 0bama fears Romney at all, it’s only in the sense that he thinks Romney might unseat him—nothing philosophical. Our Founders warned us about arriving at a state in our politics where two unscrupulous parties are divided only by their greed to hold the same public offices. 0bama vs. Romney is perhaps the most revolting example of this yet seen.

However, I doubt that 0bama fears losing the presidency to Romney. 0bama knows that Romney would demoralize tea partiers and depress the Republican vote, and likely invite the entrance of a major conservative third party effort, as well. So let’s get in and push and nominate someone acceptable.

This is a folly. With this move, Haley decreases her own credibility in South Carolina, while bringing none to Willard. South Carolina will never warm to him as a primary candidate.

She was just trying to jump on Bob Dole, winner of the 1996 SC primary.

he has the executive experience in the private and public sectors that proves he can deal "with a broken Washington."

And he saying Newt doesn't? And after what Newt has done for America and Mitt has not done one thing FOR America.

Where does Haley address BIG GOV'T Romneycare - liberalism/socialism at it's best? There is where these 'impostors' are selling out America - it's all about them - the elitist - and not America and the will of the people. It is KNOWN conservatives don't want mitt and what have we seen - those who are considered conservatives come out and support mitt. It's simply amazing - obamacare is killing jobs, economy, etc. and his Romneycare - which is in the hole financially - is overlooked. They don't give a flip about America or it's voters - and he/others couldn't be more obvious about it.
