“We all make mistakes in endorsements, but the late rush of short-sighted conservatives to get behind Romney gave him enough of a boost to set him up as the candidate to beat in 2012. Truly an unfortunate, though forseeable, result.”
I’ll take partial responsibility for that. I should have done more homework on the guy. I guess McCain was so much better known and disliked by conservatives, and Huckster just appeared to me petty and mostly just running interference for McCain and sabotaging Romney, so I never really took his candidacy too seriously.
I just hope we can atone for our past mistakes and help stop him this time around.
Like I said, hindsight is 20/20 ... when Tom Gallagher and Charlie Crist were running for Florida Governor I initially favored Crist as the better conservative - until he started running Left and Gallagher ran Right. Then I didn’t know what to think. Of course now we know all we need to know about Charlie Crist.
