Carl Cameron says it'll become offical sometime later this week.
Oh well, we're doomed. Let's hope it'll be minimal damage until 2012.
The gun voters will flood to Huckabilly now and there are 80 million of them! Some may go to McCrazy but damn few will vote Romney or Ghouliani!
Fred dropping out helps nobody but Huckabilly, which in turn helps McCrazy.
In the end all the NE liberal pukes did was screw up the race and assure that a RAT will win in Nov.
So Mitt is probably my guy now. I appreciate some things about him and I will try to find more. Sigh.
You said that Huckabee has a penchant for funding “art classes” for children of illegal aliens.
We have that too here in L.A. We call it road signs and walls.
Romney just praised Thompson and said he would make great VP material.
Excellent post OWEN!
Just remember the new SLOGAN:
“ROMNEY IS THE NEW REAGAN”
He’s got so many attributes of Reagan, it’s uncanny. For those complaining about his changing from Prochoice to Pro-Life, Reagan also did that, yet he became President.
He’s articulate, if not moreso, than Reagan.
And he doesn’t come across as someone the democrats could allege is not bright. Recall how they often would try to paint Reagan as a dunce who listened to Nancy’s astrology.
This won’t work against Romney. He’s sharp as a tack.
He also has a classy way of debating - always takes the high road with a smile, while McCain seems passive-aggressive & moody. McCain’s “poor me, I’m a victim of attack ads” playbook is so obviously emotionally manipulative.
From a very superficial standpoint, ROMNEY is a good-looking robustly vital and energetic specimen who would be a wonderful representation of our country compared to the pathetic Texas-hick style of Bush or Huckabush.
Romney is so Reaganesque in that respect and I look forward to seeing pictures of a man of his stature and intellect negotiating with that dishonest, slimy punk called Putin. What a contrast of two countries!
A lot of women vote for the most handsome, dashing, strong candidate. Romney is a standout in that regard, so he’ll get a lot of women voting for him who are not strongly prochoice. (I’m a guy and I’m pro-choice, but I’m voting for Romney).
And Romney is just the one to defeat Mocha Obama!
Can anyone here cite what they believe to be Mocha Obama’s weaknesses aside from the fact that he’s an empty suit who gives vague loft rambling platitudinous speeches that have no substance.
As a start, here is Karl Rove’s editorial in the WSJ on 1/10/08:
-—”Former President Bill Clinton hit a nerve by drawing attention to Mr. Obama’s conflicting statements on Iraq. There’s more — and more powerful — material available. Mr. Obama has failed to rise to leadership on a single major issue in the Senate. In the Illinois legislature, he had a habit of ducking major issues, voting “present” on bills important to many Democratic interest groups, like abortion-rights and gun-control advocates. He is often lazy, given to misstatements and exaggerations and, when he doesn’t know the answer, too ready to try to bluff his way through.
For someone who talks about a new, positive style of politics and pledges to be true to his word, Mr. Obama too often practices the old style of politics, saying one thing and doing another. He won’t escape criticism on all this easily. But the messenger and the message need to be better before the Clintons can get all this across. Hitting Mr. Obama on his elementary school essays won’t cut it.”
“I don’t agree on all your political positions “
Honey, I don’t even agree on all my political positions! LOL, I’m certainly not above changing my mind when necessary.
yup....my first choice was Duncan, next was Fred...now I’m reduced to picking the candidate that will least harm my country for the next 4 years.
If you look in her eyes at her soul it looks just like that too. ;^)
That is so ass backwards.
I can totally understand where you’re coming from... Perhaps someone will be smart and choose Fred as a VP running mate... That’s what I’m crossing my fingers for at this point...
Carl Cameron just interviewed Romney about Fred’s dropping out, and he (unlike the Huckster) was completely gracious, praised Romney, and when asked by Carl if he’d be thinking of Thompson as a possible VP choice if Romney won the candidacy for Prez, Romney said Fred was a great American and would be a good person to consider. (I’m paraphrasing here, as Carl was on that car phone thingy they use all the time now, and he and Romney’s conversation was breaking up. But I got the gist of it, and it was Romney praising Thompson and saying he had good ideas for consideration.
If RINO MCCAIN is nominated it will like voting for a dem!! between him and whomever the dem nominee is.... I will vote independent b4 i ever vote RINO MCCAIN!!!
Hey, I live in Mass. and Romney did the best he could with an overwhelming liberal legislature. He governed as a conservative, despite what everyone outside of the state tells you.
McCain won’t even listen to us.
So of the 2 I prefer the candidate that will at least listen to conservatives.
Are you saying it's better to be fake?????
“NV was a caucus...met in a room at 9 AM and show of hands etc...how would Romney have fared in an all day secret ballot primary ?????”
He got 25% in Iowa, 31% in NH, 39% in MI and 67% in WY.
Mitt Romney seems to do pretty good in primaries too.
BTW, I think Mitt Romney will win Florida.
Conservatives should cheer his defeat of pro-amnesty RINO McCain.
Check that speech out, FRedheads.
I’ve been predicting af McCain/Thompsom ticket for a long time now ...
at the very least a Thompson endores ment of McCain...
“Actually, I’ve been tracking who supports who on FR and it is between 80 and 90% Mitt now.”
Au contraire, Pierre

last one out, turn off the lights.
You don’t want it, it is full of worms and other vile things not for for humanity.
When the full impact of Bush’s anti-Second Amendment rights brief sinks in, get back to me. You’ll have begun to realize what ‘our team’ is doing to this nation. Until then, I’ll bear up under the criticisms you think are warranted.
