I expect it will be settled before it reaches my state. I further expect that California will go for Obama, despite my vote against the Obamanation.

I see Mitt as having an edge in demonstrated management experience.

I see people who pretend that somehow Newt is an outsider as laughable, almost as laughable those who see Ron Paul who has never authored critical legislation as a hard hitting executive.

You mean as Governor of my state?

People can make arguments on both sides as to whether he was a good Governor, but I can tell you one thing for sure, after doing his time, he not only abandoned the state, he made fun of it while doing so. He did absolutely nothing to help Lt. Governor Healey campaign against Deval Patrick, Obama's good friend. The Governorship amounted to nothing more than lines on a resume for him, and you think that gives him an edge over someone who not only supported Reagan, which Romney didn't, but carried those principles to the House of Representatives, which in itself was an historic achievement.

What has Romney ever done to further conservatism in any way. Who has he voted for and supported that would indicate he has any core conservative principles.

What has he ever done or said that would lead you to believe he could articulate...clearly, concisely, and agressively...the distinction not only of himself to Obama, but the distinction of people like you and me.

Whomever you vote for, you are going to be voting for a naked candidate, and by that I mean, regardless of how much money the candidate has behind him, or how many people there are to assist him, he will inevitably be left to his own devices and wit when presenting their case to the American public via debates.

I would rather have a warrior for that role, and I can not for the life of me understand why people just don't get that. I want someone who, when asked whether the factual statement they just made was offensive to certain people, will say no without beating around the bush and while looking you straight in the eye.

When has Romney ever displayed the will that will lead you to believe he will resist being hampered and handicapped by political correctness.

This is a war, which isn't over yet, and we need a warrior. At least with Newt, I know for a fact that he at least was a conservative. Contrary to what Mitt Romney says about himself now, when was he ever a conservative?
