The rest of his rhetoric doesn't match up well (or at all) to his public record. Mitt has some good qualities, but he's not 'conservative' in the way the Reagan would have used the term.

True. But he's the best of the lot. I'm thinking that if he gets in the WH, we'll have to hold our breaths and see if he sticks to all his promises. It it a risk. But less riskier than any of the other candidates, IMO.

"But he's the best of the lot."

You lost me there, too. At least Rudy is not stumping for socialist mandates. Huck's the only candidate with a credible constitutional stance on the Right to bear and carry arms or the sanctity of life. Mitt's more liberal than either, IMHO.

I don't subscribe to the theory that Marx had some good ideas, but Lenin and Stalin just didn't go about implementing them the right way. I don't want a more brutally efficient version of Socialism. I want it dead.
