What bothers me on Romney is his flip-flop-flip on abortion over the years. I'd rather have a president who's committed to appoint strict contructionists to the Federal Courts, instead of flipping like a weathervane.

Romney is a bit too blow-dried too. Rudy looks and talks rough - and I think this will play well vis-a-vis the WOT.

That is where the man has 'Gravitas'...

Rudy has been tested in a real crisis and came through with flying colors, exhibiting the leadership that separates real presidential material from the phony demagogues like Hillary and Obama.

Looks rough? Talks rough? Come on... He is a small man who kisses the national media's rear end.

If you want to actually win the war, polite conversation with Tim Russert ain't gonna cut it...

The flipflop question has to be answered but is addressed here:

Aw jeez. It's about time we get someone who can *articulate* cogently leading the GOP. Newt or Rmoney are tops; Huckabee has been praised too. I dont see how McCain or Rudy do well there.
