I know Romney had ‘issue ads’in Iowa. I think it’s a good thing to find out how people governed before you might vote for them. Medved referred to these as negative ads but they sounded like comparisons of Huckabee’a track record to Romney’s track record. Medved compared Huckabee’s release of a convict who later raped and murdered to Romney’s appointing a judge who did the same. I don’t compare the two. In Massachusetts I think you would be hard pressed to find a very conservative judge to appoint and Romney was governing a very liberal state.

Conservatives don’t seem to realize how important “likability” is in a candidate.
People don’t seem to like Mitt or even Fred as much as they like Huckabee or McCain. This has nothing to do with political positions . . it is just personality.
