"In January, the Zogby poll had Romney's support at 13 percent, while McCain was at 26 percent and Giuliani was at 20 percent."
To: Jim Robinson
This is interesting. While I do like Giuliani on terror and the war (let's not start another flame war on THAT, ok?), Romney is looking like the ultimate compromise candidate for me...he'd be better than about half of the field, more electable than the other half...
...but a compromise candidate ain't gonna be enough against a Democrat the party and the general public is enthused about.

I would have thought all along Romney would do well in New Hampshire, but are there polls other then Zogby that show him with double digit lead?

Now that Romney has opposed the amnesty/sellout, I expect that his numbers will soar. McLame is toast.

Presidents Buchanan and McCain will be impressed, I’m sure. ;-)
But, seriously, I’ll no more vote for Mitt Romney than I would vote for Rudy Giuliani.

I think he has flipped, but hasn’t flip flopped....lol. I haven’t seen his views go pro, con, pro, con etc like kerry. I started leaning towards Romney when I saw Rudy on TV last fall bragging about how he helped illegal aliens when he was mayor.

Romney’s a cut above McCain or Guiliani, but I’ll still hold out for Fred or Newt.

Romney, especially if he jumps all over the border like some of us are predicting, can win the whole deal. Not many are talking about this yet, but this may be a tougher problem for the Rats. They are committed to this stupid thing. Mitt or whoever wins the GOP has got to pound this puppy every time the open their mouth.
Remember Ike and the pledge to go to Korea, Mitt or Rudy should start tomorrow promising a fence up in a year/six months. Hillorat has no answer.

I personally think Romney will begin to shine if he makes if far enough where he’s part of a limited cast. He’s very sharp speaking im promptu. He’s one of the few candidates out there who can inspire. See his performance at CPAC, for instance, or the videos of him speaking on particular issues on his website.
He has a very business-oriented method of approaching problems that I find refreshing. When you compare the prospect of having Romney and Thompson on stage as compared to past elections with Bush and Gore or Kerry, you’ve got something to look forward to.

So vote for Hillary huh, there’s a real choice !!!

I think Mitt’s edge over the others in New Hampshire is, having a home there for some years and the family vacations there.

Jim, I was trying not to like Romney . I don’t trust anyone from Taxechusetts and flippers on killing tthe unborn but dad gum this guy is growing on me. His quote today on the AMNESTY bill was awsome:
“I strongly oppose today’s bill going through the Senate. It is the wrong approach. Any legislation that allows illegal immigrants to stay in the country indefinitely, as the new ‘Z-Visa’ does, is a form of amnesty. That is unfair to the millions of people who have applied to legally immigrate to the U.S.”
I think we may have our man here.

I can see you favoring Thompson. Wholly different styles of speaking and personality. Similar on a lot of viewpoints, though undoubtedly different.
But why Newt? A brilliant thinker for sure, but just generally wreckless and irresponsible. He sadly sold out conviction for convenience and pleasure... I personally think he’s wholly unelectable and sadly damaged goods at this point.

So vote for Hillary huh, theres a real choice !!! Sorry, I don't support liberals, of any party.

Romney opposed it last fall, that’s when I decided him on. That good guy sheriff joe from Arizona kind of endorsed him a while back. That’s good enough for me. Illegal amnesty is my one issue.

But why Newt? Yes, Fred is my 1st choice. The only reason I threw in Newt is that I still like him better than the current crop. I'm talking of people who might have a chance. I actuually like Hunter but don't think he has a chance.
