In a full-page letter ad that will run Saturday in an Arizona newspaper where Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) will be on the presidential campaign trail, leading social conservatives warn the GOP hopeful against picking Mitt Romney as his vice presidential running mate.

I would like to be a mouse in the corner and know as to why.

The only person I ever heard of in that ad is Paul Weyrich. I appreciate these people and their work, but they certainly aren’t big name conservatives.

I am a social conservative who voted for and supported Mitt. I liked Fred or Mitt, and when Fred faded, I went to Mitt.

I really think it is pitiful that some conservatives can’t believe Mitt had a change of heart. Their refusal to listen to his story and their refusal to listen to even the pro-choice people who ripped Mitt after he became governor of Massachusetts is astounding to me.

Oh well, whatever.

IMO, McCain has to choose someone more conservative than him. Mitt fits that bill, but whoever he chooses, he has to be from the right.

I think if you look at the signatories of the letter, you will find an unusually high representation of the Huckabee folks. And, after all, wasn't he running for VP from the get-go??

Two choices.

They have played those two out-of-context snippets of YouTube anti-Romney clips so many times they believe the baloney that Mitt Romney is a lib .....

Or they hate Mormons....
