Pretty boy over substance...yeah, that’ll work! Give me a strict-constructionist conservative to vote for or pound sand.

Best votes money can buy , but it doesn’t win you Iowa or New Hampshire or south Carolina. Well , you get the picture.
Romney still hasn’t learned after blowing 40 million of his own money in 2008.

Romney is marginally more palatable to me than McQueeg was. However he’ll lose just as many or more votes than McCain for other reasons.

Who let the dawgs out...That Romney?

I dont think so...he is a brilliant man...He should have the Treasury seat with our New Republican President ....

You watch he is smart and will have the heart of the people when, Obama distroys thier confidence and a voice of calmness and reassurance is needed!

I loved Mitt’s speech.

I like him.
He certainly is more impressive than Jindal...(who was a no show)
Those who didnt show , are not contenders

Yeah, rich white guy that never got dirt under a fingernail and lived in Mass. on purpose. That’s the secret to winning the vote of Joe Sixpack. Not to mention He was a pro-abortion Mormon....idiotic choice.

“IT’S A STRAW POLL! IT DOESN’T MEAN S4!T”

I strongly second that!

And a) Who the “F” cares what CNN thinks and b) Is this how it starts — the left deciding for us who our candidate is going to be in 2012.

Horsefeathers, we cannot let the left dictate who is going to run — we decide who we want to run.

I support anyone over 0. The damage is already too great, I’ll take Mcqueeg, Romney or even Hillary over the bullcrap that is going on now.
