Mitt Romney would have no trouble winning against Hillary if conservatives wouldn’t reject him.

Just as Fred won’t win against Hillary if all the conservatives don’t accept him.

The Fred people want to force the Mitt Conservatives to accept THEIR man, force the evangelicals to compromise on their guy, but refuse to recipricate and offer support to other candidates if they should win.

If all the conservatives backed ONE candidate this would be easy, but so long as the different conservative coalitions are both backing different candidates and refusing to support the others, nobody will beat Hillary, and we will end up with Rudy as our nominee.

I have no idea why Ann hates Fred, she didn’t really say too much in THIS interview but she probably has said something elsewhere.

Are there ANY conservative pundits who would be accepted by the FredHeads if they expressed doubts about the candidate?

Is there anything Fred can do to assuage the fear of the Evangelical community, and the people like Ann Coulter?

We need somebody to move somewhere to break the logjam.

NO candidate connects with the middle-of-the-road people-on-the-street like FRed does. Until the Republican voters face the reality of being ELECTABLE nationwide, we are split amongst certain-issue candidates.

My sense is that we need to put forth a Thompson/Hunter ticket, to have the STRONGEST challenge to the Hildabeast machine.

Those that will ONLY vote Democrat, no matter what, will not change their minds if Mother Theresa were the Republican candidate.

Look at the low-end of the food chain, and you'll find the Democrat voterbase. It's not rocket science; it's the entitlements crowd that wants the handouts from the socialists.

That’s funny, all the stuff coming from the Mitt camp has been saying the same thing about Fred and his supporters.

If Mitt is the man, I will gladly and freely pull the lever for him and hope his recent conversions were from the heart, not due to expediency. That is much unlike my feelings for Rudy, which may still get my vote and a lot of prayer that he will at least look over occasionally at the R behind his name and not erase it.

If all three fail for any reason, I hope that Hunter, by the grace of God, finds a way to handle his new found front position and try and take out Hillary, that he becomes more than he is now. It’s a risk though that I can avoid for now.
