So, we have for our choices from the remaining viable candidates, McCain and Huckabee, both of whom have been roundly criticized as too liberal by most conservative icons. And we have Thompson and Romney, both of whom have been pronounced to be good choices, again by most conservative icons such as Rush Limbaugh and Anne Coulter. While Thompson is a good, intelligent man, Romney has shown his ability to get the votes, delegates, and the momentum to win and keep the Oval Office in Republican hands. It's not a hard decision really. If Limbaugh, Coulter, Bork, Bopp, Buckley and a whole list of conservative icons plus the majority of delegates and voters thus far, find Romney to be the best conservative choice, chances are, he is. The choice really is that simple.
That's why the MSM?Socialists are worried.
Interesting stat that would be headline news everywhere if the candidate was “approved” by the DBM.
You put the situation between Thompson and Romney very well - the same conclusion that I made months ago, when it was almost impossible to print the word Romney on FR. Let’s hope that voters in every state see the choices as we do from now on,
If Romney wins the nomination, he’ll lose the election. If he wins the election, we’ll lose.
And he needs about 1100 more. Long haul, he'll cave before the convention.
this guy had different positions on everything just 3 years ago when he was governor on massachusetts. he changed his position on nearly everything to appeal to conservatives. this guy flip flops more than john kerry. who says he wont do the same thing if hes ever elected president? its one thing if you have a legit change of heart. this happens to many people, but this does not look like it. he strikes me as phony and it looks likes hes saying anything to get elected. its a little too convenient that hes changed his positions as soon as he decided to run for president.
99 delegates out of 2300 (4%) have been pledged from the results of 4 northern state primaries (3 liberal states and 1 small conservative state).
Don’t get too excited.
And look what we got.
You satisfied with the border and all the Americans killed since 2001 by illegal aliens on our soil?
Some leadership. Yeah, let's all get behind the "Winners" again, shall we?
Whoever wins FL will go to the front of the line as it is a Winner Take All fairly big state.
IT’S OVER!!! Romeny wins. He has 52 delegates. He’s only one thousand, one hundred and thirty-nine away from victory. IT’S OVER.
And last week Huckleberry hound did, so what?
Which is roughly a little less that four and one-half percent of what he needs.
Not exaclt locked up yet.

And Florida looms.
Romney/Thompson sounds good to me.
I would like to see Romney and The governor of Maryland.
Nevada has 34 delagates and SC only 24.
Romney went ot Neavda this week when no one else did. He has led by a majority in the polls of Nevada all year. Wonder why the MSM isn’t as interested in 34 delegates that will mostly go to Romney? While the media and the other GOP candidates are focusing on SC Mitt is winning where it matters the most on Saturday. Plus he will have eithera 1st or second place in SC getting a huge chunk of the delegates there as well. The MSM can ignore Wyoming and Nevada (and other states where conservatives acutally vote) for awhile but inevitably they will have to announce who the winner is.
You're right, it's not. If Thompson is still in when it gets to my state, I'll be voting for him. If he's not, then it may be the first primary I've missed since I turned 18.
We are in January. I predict a McCain majority in NY, CA, FL, TX, AZ, OH, MO... Then he will add Giuliani’s and Thompson’s delegates.
