But I'm to the right of Atilla the Hun. I have a dart board with a McCain poster on it and Guliani makes me a little queasy (but not as much as John McCain). I'm the real thing. They must be posers.
One thing's for sure: faux conservatives and trolls won't vote for him.
He sounds like a man who doesn't suffer fools. I like that.
The most important part of the interview to me:
"Lopez: Read anything good lately?
Gov. Romney: A few of my current favorites are The Cube and the Cathedral by George Weigel, The Looming Tower by Lawrence Wright, America Alone by Mark Steyn, The Places in Between by Rory Stewart, and Bill Bryson’s latest book The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid."
Reading "America Alone" and "The Looming Tower" means he has a better grasp on the issue of Islamic terror than the people cocooned in DC
Is that his "rage" photograph?
That would make a great target.
Sorry. One last try to eliminate you. He's a Mormon, you know? The "real" conservatives of whom I'm referring have denounced his religion as a cult and rendered him DOA.
I know.
I'm a Catholic. That means in almost every election I'm voting for a heretic already :)
Now it is true that Mormonism is more heretical than most, but still....
Nice entry there at your Blog NeoCaveman. I loved the tagline at your blog as well "I can't break any news in Cleveland . . . it's already broken."
Great stuff.
Thank you! I'm RC too and his religion is not a problem for me.
Right now, I am undecided about 2008. I will listen to the candidates' agendas.
I bet we'll have FR trolls claiming that Mitt has a secret harem of young blondes in a small Utah town. I say this, the Mormon canddiate married just once inlike the other GOP candidates.
I think RC's in general have less of a problem with voting for an LDS'er than Evangelicals do.
Not that we don't equally see the rather unique oddities of the LDS church.
Maybe it goes back to my last bit about "always voting for heretics anyways..."
Ya, why is the only candidate with only one wife the Mormon? What's up with that?
You'd better tell your boy Mitt to start working on his "clarification" of his signing of the Massachusetts "Assault Weapons" ban. It's not exactly the thing that would endear him to GOP voters in New Hampshire, where a liberal is anyone who carries a 9mm or smaller.
Good point. That is problematic to say the least.
That won't play in Ohio, where even half the Dems are pro-gun.
Go Buckeyes!!! (M.S., 1988, The Ohio State University)
I hope the interviewer was joking, because that has got to be one of the stupidest interview questions I've ever read.
I reminded one nasty and sanctimonious poster last night that ALL Christians were Catholic until Martin Luther established his own church.
Yes, full-on sarcasm from K-Low. She's pretty funny too.
What about the Coptics?
Picky, I know.
Nice. I'm giving you a virtual high five.
Although, technically after the schism of 1054 there were Catholics and Eastern Orthodox but Benedict XVI is working on that one.
