Here's the thing: the Romney haters are getting desperate because they know a candidate who speaks only to the religious conservatives wouldn't win in the general election. The religous activists who call themselves conservatives want a Bush clone who believes in Christian Socialist nanny-statism, not a Jeffersonian/Reagan Republican. At this stage, it's unlikely that George Foot-In-His-Mouth-Allen or somebody like Rick Santorum or Sam Brownback is going to win the nomination. Governors become President, not Senators or one-issue candidates.

Romney is not perfect. But he is a better choice than McCain and he would be strong in the WOT, which is what people care about.

Another thing. Roe v. Wade isn't going to be overturned any time soon, certainly not under a Democratic administration, which is what we'd get if only the religious activists voted in the general election.

Bush is not pushing a nanny state and that is not what christian activists want. Allen was a governor too for the record and he has a much better tenure in his 4 years than romney does. ALlen made a mistake, big woop. Everybody makes mistakes, Romney has made his share of mistakes, the only differences is nobody is focusing in on them like they are with allen.

I'm not a Christian socialist nannystater. I just want someone who doesn't BS.
