[Just mythoughts]

Just because one is a Christian does not mean you will be a good politician or even a good candidate. I do not want someone running who is sooooo ego driven that he cannot understand a death inducing gaffe when he makes it. Politics may indeed be a dirty game but when one’s ego says I am the only one who can properly convey the message then you are so out of bounds as to be not useful. Aiken’s loss was self induced and he was too ignorant to see it

I live in Missouri. There is no one more more upset than I was by Akin's words to a known liberal reporter. Akin's words were recorded and no apology was going to unring that bell. The haughty Coulter/Rove Romney of the GOP-e sure would not let those words leave a ring around their collars.

But I could make the same case about Romney. While I voted for his ticket, strange is it not after all the money he spent in Florida bashing Newt in the primaries, he was rejected by the voters of Florida.... Romney never used his wins in the primaries strategy against liberals. Some things just will not go unrewarded.

Mitt conducted himself like Ike did in his political prime. He was no crotch fighter...

I am no lover of Romney. I too voted for this ticket because I desperately wanted to stop I and the communists. I loathe Rove and have for a long long time. His willingness to sell out conservative principles so he can claim to be the ‘architect’ is the kind of ego I think is evil

My suspicion is that you and I are a lot closer politically than you may think
