Mitt Romney Wins GOP Presidential Straw Poll
CBS News ^ | 4/10/2010

NEW ORLEANS -- Mitt Romney won the straw poll at the Southern Republican Leadership conference here Saturday in a victory that will be taken as a sign of the former Massachusetts governor's strength as a 2012 presidential candidate.

That's because the 2008 GOP presidential hopeful elected to skip the conference to continue his book tour.

Romney triumphed by a single vote over Ron Paul, who took second place 439 votes to 438. Both men won 24 percent of the vote. Sarah Palin and Newt Gingrich essentially tied for third with 18 percent of the vote each.

When “conservatives” vote for Hagel and his “show ME your Papers/approved ID Card” dreams, I PANIC!
HEY,I’m a life-long Nebraskan!
Hagel would have been loved in Germany in the 1930’s and 1940’s!

LOL! I’m from California. I wouldn’t even try! (Conservatives in CA can only harken back to the days of Reagan.)

I would prefer Mitt Romney anyday over what is in the White House today, of course .. you want your way and your ego is more important , so you want someone that you can identify with..which is not a Mormon, or from Massachusetts.

Very bad news; again all the dumb Republican primary voters know to do is rubberstamp the convention loser from last time.

I’m sorry but Fred Thompson just reminds me how much TN voters have let us down over the years: Gore, Sr., Gore, Jr., Sasser, Baker, Brock, Thompson, Frist, Alexander, etc.

Mitt Romney always has the second version on every question, we all know that. Remember that Mitt changed all of his views for the primary, that is part of what so disgusts people, the man is a chameleon with no character or identity.

Do you remember Mitt Romney’s “Sanctuary Mansion”?

That was when he had those illegal Guatemalans maintaining his grounds for 10 years, and then the media busted him for it.

A year later, Giuliani labeled his home the “Sanctuary Mansion” and Romney was outraged and indignant, and said it wasn’t true, within a few days the media decided to check it out and guess what? The same company and still more Guatemalan illegals at Mitt’s house, which brought this up to 11 years and two national scandals.

LOL. Willard is actually from Michigan and now lives in La Jolla, CA. He did his thing in MA and fled when he realized he couldn’t win a second term.

I am in Bennie’s district. I complain all the time.
His office staff hates me. Local and DC. I have met him several times. He pretends to like me. Emphasis on “pretends.”
I will tell you in FR mail.
