How about Fred Sanford! just kidding
You are most welcome!
Ditto!! To the only conservative!!
Unfortunately Pat Paulsen died in 1997. As a Marine who served in WWII, he may have been more of a military hero than anyone who is likely to run in 2008.
One thing I have always thought was odd regarding the Supreme Court and Judges is why Bush has never filled the vacancies of Federal Judges and why with a Republican Congress did he have so many problems with his candidates.
Maybe the MSM is hyping Romney to drown out any other alternatives to the two they want the Republican primary voters to choose between, Giuliani and McCain.
Members of the Democrat Media*, especially the Boston Globe, were doing their best to squash the hopes of a Romney candidacy before this week. Then the Romney organization collected $6,538,323 in contributions in a single day of fundraising. No, the Romney stories are not hype, something real is going on here in my opinion.

I had a HS History teacher whom I liked and respected a lot. She made it onto Jeopardy and held on for a few days, but came back with a very negative opinion of Trebek...indicating that he is an absolutely pompous and arrogant individual.
Bassackwards. The candidates asked Bush to withdraw their nominations.
Unless Romney has a Mark Foley problem that comes out, he will probably get my vote in the primary. The War on Terror takes precedence over abortion and school prayer stuff.
Good points. And there is the issue of uniting the country - or moving toward greater unification. Romney can do that, too. He actually likes to hear different and opposing views!
Why do you doubt that?
Would a RINO order the state police to arrest illegal aliens and turn them over to the Feds? Would a RINO veto a embryonic stem cell bill? Would a RINO stop the morning after pill? Would a RINO be fighting on the front lines against gay marraige and push the MA legislature to pass a constitutional amendment defining marriage as exclusively between a man and woman?
Social conservatism is a major concern for many FReepers. Judging from his record as Governor of Massachusetts (2002-2006), Mitt Romney will stand firmly for the pro-life position when faced with a decision regarding abortion law. I haven’t read anything about Romney’s views on school prayer.
He proposed a moratorium on changes to abortion law in his run for Governor in 2002 and made good on the promise during his term in office. In ultra-liberal MA, the Democrat dominated state Legislature sought to enact more liberal abortion law and a moratorium was a very unpopular stand.
Romney vetoed a bill to give kids access to emergency contraception without parents’ knowledge. He vetoed a bill to expand research in stem cell research involving cloning of human embryos even though his wife has multiple sclerosis and despite the overwhelmingly hostile liberal majority in the MA Legislature. Romney opposes Roe v. Wade and thinks states should set abortion policy.
He's dead, Jim, er, lindy.
FYI, Romney is pro-life, and he's done more than just say it. He's actually taken action as governor to help the cause. It's true that he's only recently come around to the pro-life position, but his forceful actions convince me of its sincerity.
Hes probably more able to do the job than your average democrat. Dead never bothers them, why, they even vote!
