We are tired of throwing our votes away on people who claim to be Republican, then act like Democrats.

However, what you are forgetting, in Mitt's case, is that he's already governed like a conservative while governor of Massachusetts. His actual record (not DNC propaganda) is the best predictor of future actions.

The following record is one of a conservative:

In the four balanced budgets he signed into law, Governor Romney used the line-item veto or program reduction power to cut spending by nearly $1 Billion. Over the course of four budgets, Governor Romney made over 300 line-item reductions, 350 line-item eliminations and struck language 150 times

Gov. Romney was instrumental in passing a bill abolishing a retroactive capital gains tax in the state that would have forced nearly 50,000 taxpayers to pay an additional $200 million in state taxes and fees

Romney opposed a bill that would have allowed illegal aliens to get driver’s licenses. "Those who are here illegally should not receive tacit support from our government that gives an indication of legitimacy," the governor said. (Scott S. Greenberger, "Romney Stand Dims Chances Of License For Undocumented," The Boston Globe, 10/28/03)

Romney vetoed a bill in 2004 that would have permitted illegal aliens to pay the same in-state tuition rate paid by citizens at public colleges and universities in Massachusetts.

Romney vetoed the bill providing state funding for human embryonic stem cell research

Romney vetoed a bill that provided for the "morning after pill" without a prescription because it is an abortifacient and would have been available to minors without parental notification and consent

He vetoed legislation which would have redefined Massachusetts longstanding definition of the beginning of human life from fertilization to implantation

Governor Romney strongly supported a successful ballot initiative that replaced the state's bilingual program with English immersion. (Romney Vows to Protect English Immersion Law, May 1, 2003)

Governor Romney demonstrated his commitment to school-choice by vetoing a bill that would have canceled funding for Massachusetts' charter-school program. (Romney to Veto Charter School Moratorium, June 23, 2004)

He supported parental notification laws and opposed efforts to weaken parental involvement

He fought to promote abstinence education in public school classrooms with a program offered by faith-based Boston group Healthy Futures to middle school students.

YOU DON'T KNOW MITT'S ACTUAL RECORD.

What, is flip-flopping endemic in Massachusetts?

YOU don’t know Mitt’s record.

Romney has taken giant steps to court conservatives; he spoke at the RTL convention, and has defended people of faith.

IMHO, when Romney defended his Mormon faith at the second debate, he was defending people of ALL faiths.

Liberal Giuliani is laboring to dump conservatives and believers off the Repub party flotilla. If he won, he'd have secular liberals controlling the entire US govt.

We need as president a person of strong faith who recognizes the culturally-destructive morally relativistic times in which we live.

Presidential ================= Post-menopausal.
