Romney is running as the conservative in this race.

Doesn't matter what he's "running as," but rather what he actually is: liberal enough for Massachusetts, feigning conservatism to infiltrate the GOP.

...what Romney actually is: liberal enough for Massachusetts, feigning conservatism to infiltrate the GOP.

So is Weyrich a conservative, but a gullible tool that Romney has hoodwinked?

Is Weyrich a false conservative, who welcomes a liberal President?

Or you don't have the slightest idea, but are just on this thread to mindlessly spew Romney insults, per usual?

You mis-spelled the word L-E-A-D. I think a 50-year-running conservative activist might have a good sense of who's real and who's not. Romney's the real deal on leadership and experience and many other points. What he's not is a right-wing activist, but he's feigning nothing in his positions and values.

Thompson may as well be the phony candidate. Here we have Rudy the frontrunner and Thompson bashes Romney but doesnt lay a glove on Rudy. Why is that? Thompson's real chances are in SC and FL, yet he leaves FL open for Rudy. And is suspiciously low-key and running a campaign that is suspiciously inept at taking enough advantage of openings to win ...just enough to get Rudy nominated.

“I’m on the permanent executive committee of the Arlington Group, which was formed to push for the Federal Marriage Amendment. We’ve got [Fred] Thompson who says he can’t support that. I can’t push this for the past several years and then say, ‘oh, that’s not so important.’ … I’ve been working with candidates for close to fifty years I recognize candidates with fire in the belly. I’ve got to tell you, I do not think Thompson really wants to be elected that badly.”
