1. While you were the Governor of Massachusetts you introduced legislation that created a state-run healthcare system, funded by taxpayers, which many referred to as ‘RomneyCare.’ The plan that Obama and the Democrats wish to impose on the entire country is based in part upon your program in Massachusetts. How can the voters trust you with the healthcare issue when you are one of the very politicians who implemented a program they have clearly indicated they do not want?

2. Do you support a revised version of RomneyCare for the entire country, and if not, why? And if so, why would you expect GOP voters to choose you as the Party’s standard-bearer?

3. Do you believe that the individual states are free in this Constitutional Republic to implement programs such as a government-controlled healthcare system that requires citizens to purchase HC policies?

4. Do you believe that such programs in the individual states are Constitutional?

5. While you were Governor of Massachusetts you were known for your hostility to Second Amendment rights for individual citizens. Several gun rights organizations gave you a rating of ‘F’ on protecting the gun rights of individuals. Do you believe that the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which is part of the Bill of Rights, protects the individual’s right to own, possess, and use firearms, or do you view the amendment as a so-called ‘collective right’ that is reserved only to the militia?

6. If you believe that the 2nd Amendment refers to an individual right as the U.S. Supreme Court affirmed last year in a landmark decision, then why did you support so many attempts by gun-control activists in Massachusetts to place severe limits and restrictions on that right nearly to the point of rendering it useless?

7. Do you believe that the federal government should be keeping a national database on gun owners, such as those who apply for concealed carry permits?

8. Do you support microstamping laws for ammo and firearms that gun-hostile states such as California have enacted?

9. Do you believe that the use of eminent domain by local governments to condemn private property so that big businesses can build on that property, thus increasing the tax base for those communities, is an appropriate use of the law?

10. Will you support measures to halt the confiscation of private property on the part of federal agencies, such as the EPA that claims such tactics are intended to ‘preserve endangered species,’ leaving property owners liable for taxes while depriving them of the use of their property?

I hope Mitt is not the best we can do. Everytime we allow the “next in line” to take the nomination we lose. Bob Dole and John McCain were our two most recent moderates to get trounced.

Could we please get through the November 2010 elections and then see who wins the Presidential Primaries before we start all this crap about who we will or will not vote for?

11. Do your really believe the Garden of Eden was in Missouri? Seriously. You can’t believe that.

12. If you’ll fall for that line of cultish garbage, no way I want you having the keys to the nuclear kingdom.

Romney was scrutinized during the 08 election and he failed miserably. He needs to drop out and support Sarah, as does nannybee.

If Republican voters are going to turn to a moderate governor of a very liberal state to be its standard bearer ........................................HE WILL SURELY LOSE!! The Press is getting ready to tell Republicans who to vote for. If they back a Candidate, their money is on that person losing. That you can bet on!

Sarah Palin: "We should welcome these contested primaries ..."

And she is right. The media can't win unless they can split the party or otherwise convince conservatives to let the media control the primary process.

We the People are making the decisions. If too many of We the People quit participating, the media will win, again.

All you’ll get out of Romney is that made up story about how he shot a rabbit! He is just about as real as his hairdo!

Mitt Romney is no different than Harry Reid

Mitt Romney is a flip-flopping socialist bum!

Some people just don't get the TEA Parties. RINO Romney is just more of the same. Dump him!
