Big shocker there...
Somehow I distrust Romney less than I do Giuliani, but I sure would like to get this race on a positive track and stop holding my nose.
Thanks for everything Jim, including this post. Interesting.
Isn’t New Hampshire the state that recently passed laws for gay marriage?.....yes that New Hampshire....
NO RUDY..Too Liberal
NO McCAIN..Too whacked
NO PAUL..Too spaced
Sitting on the fence still, but observation of the fracus leads me to believe in First tier (Currently) Romney. Second tier Hunter.
If Fred Thompson gets into the race, will consider his candidacy at the time. I like him.
If Newt gets into the race, will not even consider him viable. Good man for support, but not Presidential.
Somehow, I trust Romney to do his very best to represent all of us.
I feel he is a very good man. Don’t you?
My candidate remains Duncan Hunter, however it is not an unwelcome development to see Mitt Romney starting to eclipse RudyTooty and John ‘CFR’ McCain.
No surprise that Giuliani finds his support strongest among so-called ‘moderates’ and of course: LIBERALS.
Probably the same crowd who agreed with Giuliani in ‘96 when he commented on Bob Dole’s loss on election night saying that Bill Clinton was a ‘good and decent man, and the country has run pretty well.’
I would not be surprised to see Giuliani’s campaign fold up by Labor Day.
“And the wailing and gnashing of the teeth of the RudyBots was heard throughout the land.”
Besides, Mitt has the best hair.
I come to this conclusion by virtue of the candidate' s telegenic personality and by the utter absence of charisma among the rest of the pack. It's all about television and Romney has it. No one on these boards can claim purer conservative credentials than I have been espousing for years on these threads. I am not unaware of Romney's deficiencies. I know that he is a Mormon, I know that he is the governor of the most liberal state in the nation, I know that he is not pure on the murder of babies. Nevertheless, he will march to the right and he will get the nomination.

Full disclosure requires that I have weaseled: If Fred Thompson enters the race, he will be nominated. I would like to see a Thompson /Romney ticket.

GO MITT!!!
Mitt has homecourt advantage in New Hampshire and Michigan. I saw a ARG poll this morning where he is now in first.
Michigan (last month)
Romney - 24% (8)
McCain - 22% (35)
Giuliani - 19% (30)
F Thompson - 8% (-)
Gingrich - 7% (9)
T Thompson - 2% (1)
Huckabee - 2% (1)
Looking good!
Any conservative republican that can win in Massachusetts can win any state. Romney will be nominated and possibly elected because he has all the attributes that voters seek... honesty, clarity, conservative, articulate, handsome, and he (the Mormon) may be the only candidate that has only had one wife.
