Rudy and Romney are both sharp tacks.
To: Kevmo
Maybe they should have a follow up question to Paul, will you support the Democrat nominee because they promise to end the war?

oh dear, I respect Tancredo's answer to this...
Hunter said he would support the Republican nominee and 'work' with him....
Tancredo said he would not accept the lesser of two evils.

RP is trying to wrap up to make it to those Daily Kos and DU meetings.
Romney is FRed bashing, and FRed took the jab and stuck it back on Romney! Gotta luv it!

I don’t see Ron Paul withdrawing, especially if significant money keeps coming into his campaign.

I think Rudy just hit it out of the park, telling the Leftist Anti-American newsbabe to lift her head up.

Dang. Just lost my feed—wait, here’s Mitt. He wants a group hug, LOL.

He can bring the Constituion into a debate, then he can play foot sniper and forget or ignore his party.

>> The Dems stood up to FOX and refused to debate on their network. The GOP does not have the courage to stand up to the media.
Perhaps conservatives simply aren’t afraid of hostile questioning.

They should have asked Giuliani the same question. He might end up supporting Hillary if he loses the nomination.
***He has supported a democrat over the republican in the NY guvner race, so that comment isn’t off base.

Funny banter between Fred and Mitt. That was cute.
To: wastedyears
BUT he was respectful—that kind of ribbing I don’t mind.
