Here's David Keene's interview from this morning's Laura Ingraham Show. Listen to the whole interview. Mr. Keene was very clear and articulate about his decision to support Romney.

Another individual I had a lot of respect for. *FLUSH*

Its gotta be either mass insanity or pure stupidity.

In either case, leading to mass suicide.

I think it’s either Romney or Rudy. It’s still close enough to be an interesting finish.

Bump.

It's great to see Mitt win the support of such an astute and well-respected conservative leader.

That said, Mitt's ship is sailing in stormy waters these days. The tax loving Huckabee is the flavor-of-the-month, the liberal media's favorite Republican in the same way McCain was their favorite Republican in 1999-2000.

I hope Mitt can hang on to his leads and build up the momentum necessary to overtake Giuilini. Huckabee and the evangelical Christian right will do everything possible to undermine Romney and strengthen Giuliani. They are fully capable of greasing Giuiliani's path to the nomination.

We shall see.

Had to google him to see who he was, but he basically admits he limited his consideration to the liberal Romney and the Ultra-liberal Rudy. Real conservative....Not.

Apparently Keene preferred Arlen Spector over Pat Toomey in 1994.

They were objecting to Keene's endorsement of Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter, a liberal Republican, over his conservative primary challenger, Rep. Pat Toomey. Keene called Specter a "standup guy" despite his "anemic" 47 percent rating from the ACU. Toomey received a "spectacular" 97 percent, which was still not good enough to garner Keene's endorsement.

And there's more.

Yes, keep it bumped so everyone can read David Keene’s endorsement record: Arlen Spector and Willard Myth Romney.

Or, it could be that unlike Keene or apparently yourself, Petronski is a poster of principle and doesn’t stick his finger in the wind to determine who to support.

I guess he calls himself a conservative with a little "c".

Look, I'll vote for Rudy or Mitt if one of them is the nominee, but I won't like it.

I have to eat some humble pie here and admit that I have newfound respect for the Hunter brigade since so many Republicans have evidently deserted Fred and I now appear to be supporting an underdog, too.

In fact, the increasing likelihood that we'll nominate a RINO has me all verklempt (in recognition of the Youtube debate)..
