I believe that with Governor Romney's vision, values and experience, our nation will be stronger for future generations," said Bay Buchanan.

Fabulous retort!
Delusional comment in the extreme.
Money maybe doing too much talking in this case...
Should tell you something!
Bay converted to Mormonism—kinda made her a black sheep... Its in “Right from The Begining”....

Nope, just the last Mormon in the country not already supporting him coming home.

Romney is a moderate masquerading as a conservative, but at least he doesn't take glee in sticking it to us every chance he gets. Between the two, I'd hold my nose and vote for Romney.
But to be honest, both are SO far from my idea of a conservative, I don't know that either would excite me enough to go to the polls, much less take an active role. It would take lots of convincing.

Mitt’s not my choice, not for the obvious mormon issue (I’ll vote for a jewish candidate if they are the most conservative); but because of ideological issues, but if he’s the nominee, we need to work like we never worked before to get him elected, same as we would with the Huckster, Rudy, or McCain. We can’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good. For the record, my candidate is Thompson, but a Republican wouldn’t derail a Republican Congressional agenda, and if we take the white house, we’ll almost certainly retake the Senate because more rat seats are at stake in 08 than GOP, and a GOP candidate successfully winning would carry coattails down the ticket.
IOW, our priority should be getting elected, at any price..
We can recover from a RINO, but not a bona fide rat...
Do you mittheads like her brother Pat, too?
Give us more credit than that.
Hank
Why was she with Tom Tancredo first?
Yep she left Catholicism for the Mormon cult. I was pretty shocked to hear that.
BTTT
Buchananites for Willard? Hey, Bay’s brother Pat liked his religion speech.

I don't know if that's a serious question or not. If you know anything about the Buchanans, you know they're America-firsters and Tancredo was a perfect fit for them. I myself was a Tancredo supporter as well.
When TT dropped out, that left no one fitting her strict Americanist profile, so she obviously went for her LDS brother. I don't blame her or say there's anything wrong with it - but if you know the Buchanans, you know Romney's very centrist ideology isn't at all consistent with what they espouse.

Why would I flame you? Unlike most Romney supporters, you aren't here savaging all the other candidates. I'm a Thompson guy. I don't think Romney is a bad person, but I know he isn't a conservative. He'd be better than the Dems, but he's really a Bob Dole/Bush 1 style moderate.
You don't know how badly I'd like to make myself believe he's a conservative. I've tried...the facts just don't support it. And it doesn't help that many of his supporters are here belittling the conservative candidates on a regular basis. That isn't going to make reconcilliation easy, however the primaries go.
At any rate: Happy New Year to you and yours as well!

I voted for an Open Borders GOP Candidate for President and all it got was my country invaded.
I will not do that again.
I will also vote for Conservative GOP members of the House and Senate as well.
Sorry your information was in error.
Romney is not an open borders candidate. Please study his record before you make a decision.
Good day.
You detail the differences.
Here are the similarities:
1) Gun grabber
2) Homo supporter
3) Advocates baby killing
4) Liar
5) Tax raiser
6) Liberal
