Romney is probably out because of his religion.

Why? Is he trying to force Mormonism down your or anybody else's throat? He is easily the most qualified out there to eventually become president.

Realpolitik. The propriety of using someone’s religion as a reason to not vote for them isn’t at issue. It is simply a self-evident fact that people do use it as a factor in the decision.

Agreed, but I think it’s pretty obvious that the conservative Christians do not want Romney, and McCain has got to pick someone who will appeal to those voters.

I concur.

"It's the economy, stupid". Romney is the only one who understands economics backwards and forwards. Already, big money has fled NY to Asia, particularly Hong Kong.
