Paul Weyrich just told the next generation of young people that being a Christian is one of those “it depends on what the definition of is is”.
So in essence , Weyrich is saying that the values voters will have to “come around” to Romney’s psuedo Conservatism ?
By that , he’s admitting that Romney has to be sold to values voters . Not good .
Thompson doesn’t need to be sold to Conservative voters , he has the Conservative track record already .
same here.
Bump
Hunter is much better than Romney, IMO.
Grab the hip boots. It’s chin-deep in here.
You sold your soul for a few pesos to a liberal, Weyrich.
In other words, Weyrich is admitting that the Republican party is a total disaster. We’ve lost all sight of conservatism. We have several candidates who are outright rejected for their liberalism, or unwillingness to go along with needlessly amending the constitution (fix the problem by impeaching the liberal activist judges, stupid, not amending the constitution), or are religious zealots, etc. Now we must twist the arms of the voters to sell them on the idea that impressive dynamism (ie, a candidate who lies convincingly to whichever audience he’s speaking to) is what we need. Geez, what a mess.
Ok, Weyrich has convinced me. The Republican party is too screwed up to govern conservatively. Not a Reagan conservative in the bunch.
Hmmm... wait a minute. Not a mention of Hunter. Where are Hunter’s non-conservative criticisms??
When hell freezes solid.
That isn't exactly the kind of glowing endorsement I was expecting. Hmmm.
I have to be honest. I am heavily leaning towards Fred; Mitt Romney just comes across to me as too slick. I think "Used car salesman trying to sell me a lemon" when I hear him speak and that really bothers me. I don't know that I trust him. His pro-life conversion also seems politically contrived. Though, if it is genuine, I am thrilled. More advocates for babies--hallelujah! His other flip-flops in conservative issues leave me skeptical,though I give him the benefit of the doubt on some matters.
My hinky meter is still way up on him at this point.
Romney’s strategy—take IA, take NH, lead in MI (homestate advantage), take SC and it’s all over by Super Tuesday. May work... (I heard it from the horse’s mouth in a speech Romney gave supporters...we’ll see...)
Spiff, link to the actual endorsement statement on the Brody File:

“As he travels across the country, Governor Romney has outlined a blueprint to build a stronger America rooted in our common conservative principles. With a clear conservative vision to move America forward, he will strengthen our economy, our military and our families. More importantly, he already has an exceptional record of putting conservative values to work. Because of his experience, vision and values, I am proud to support Governor Romney,” said Paul Weyrich.
With today’s announcement, Governor Romney said, “Paul Weyrich has put his stamp on the conservative movement in this country. It is an honor to have his support and counsel.

IF you truly want a long time, deeply committed conservative you would be supporting Duncan Hunter.
Bah..to you!
