Me too.
I think we are going to have to go with Romney and take the risk that the Evangelicals and the like will sit this one out. That would be a big mistake on their part but it is the risk in a Romney nomination. The Huckster has fallen on his sword big time with his naive foreign policy statements. This simply adds to his terrible record on pardons and makes him dead meat as a Republican presidential candidate - IMHO.
Now if we can just get Romney to face the facts on Global Warming and stop kissing MSM's bottom on that issue maybe we have a candidate.
I still have some hope Fred can make it but he is a long shot. If he is not the nominee then I am beginning to think perhaps Mitt is our best bet, though he too of course would be an underdog in the general election. Romney at least admits the prior liberal positions he’s taken are wrong, and now he is running on a pretty solid conservative platform. I hope he is savvy enough to know if he strays too far from the GOP base that this will cost him.
I would be more comfortable voting for Mitt if he has a very strong conservative as his running mate. I think perhaps Fred would be a logical choice. I will throw out the name of Gov Sonny Perdue also. Romney might need a southerner to counter the feelings that the evangelicals will not support him.
