The best candidate?

Romney was the most liberal governor in American history.

You calling him “the best” makes me wonder about your own position on the political spectrum.

You could only say that if you consider the implementation of gay marriage, socialized medicine with taxpayer-funded abortions, the homosexualization of the public schools, the signing of a permanent assault weapons ban, the appointment of more Dems and Independents than Republicans to the bench, etc., all of which Mitt Romney was responsible for between 2002 and 2006, to be GOOD.

You are right. He is the best candidate and he did govern conservatively. And, perhaps saying that we should withdraw our support permanently from that ridiculous human rights council is obvious, but thank goodness someone is saying it.

Rebuttal to falsehoods posted on this thread:
Romney in Massachusetts was fighting upstream against raging left-wing rapids. This could explain why John J. Miller, the national political reporter of National Review, has written that “a good case can be made that Romney has fought harder for social conservatives than any other governor in America, and it is difficult to imagine his doing so in a more daunting political environment.”

Massachusetts Citizens For Life Pioneer Valley Chapter Chairman Kevin Jourdain: "Mitt Romney was a great Governor, who served with honor and distinction. But most importantly, he was a pro-life Governor. He vetoed a number of pro-abortion pieces of legislation and made many pro-life appointments. He was always there for us."
