Ah refreshing optimism in the midst of the gloom! That’s what sets conservatives apart from everyone else. Thanks for the breath of fresh air Jim.

Not sure it makes a difference about Romney anymore... from the sounds of the McCain fans Romney is going down. Clintons win win because they know every dirty hair McCain has ever shed.

I voted Alan Keyes as a matter of conscience. I know he can’t win, but I have a hard time voting for RINOs.

The problem is , he then endorsed Mcain which is going to hurt the conservative causes,

At least the previously {cough} pro abortion former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney was politically astute enough to realize that a pro abortion candidate cannot win the Republican nomination, so, wisely, some say cunningly, adjusted his bedrock principles accordingly.

Amen, Jim

That is good news.

Through a lot of last year Rudy was somehow in the lead for the nomination.

Now if the remaining 4 could also lose, we’d be ready to start over!

Conservatism never had a viable candidate.

I'm afraid we're in for a very ugly 4 years.

Maybe then...

Win or lose I’ll continue to fight for conservatism.

Jim,

With all due respect, I see little to rejoice about.

This November we will be given the choice between two pro-abortion presidential candidates.

McCain has worked against President Bush’s conservative judicial appointments again and again. He will appoint liberal judges to secure the cooperation of the Left with the rest of his agenda, like amnesty, since being pro-life is a second or third order concern for him.

And Hillary and Obama were duking it out over who was the most pro-abortion candidate. Imagine.

I fear that we as a nation are about to get the leadership we deserve, rather than the leadership we need to lead us in a righteous and God-honoring direction.

May God have mercy on our nation and on our children.

All in on Romney. If it’s not him I don’t care anymore because it will be McCain V Hillary.

Yep...we traded Rudy for a pro-illegal alien, pro-open borders, pro-NAFTA, pro-taxes, anti-bill of rights, pro-big government John McCain.

Congrats! But at least he’s against abortion so I guess we should all vote for him!

Abortion should be a non-issue in presidential politics. The White House can’t do anything about abortion. You can elect the most anti-abortion, pro-life candidate in the nation and he is powerless to do anything. Sure he can appoint judges, but with a Democrat congress? They will never allow a judge to be confirmed that support abolishing Roe vs Wade.

Gay marriage amendment. Again, the White House is powerless. In order for an amendment to pass, it must be approved by 2/3rds of each house of congress plus 3/4th of the state legislatures. The president plays no role.

Taxes, size of government, foreign policy, defense, economy, immigration, etc... these are issues the president has power over and can influence directly.

Ditto! Vote as if your life, and your country, depends on it!

If Romney is still standing when the vote comes up in Seattle then I’m voting for him. I’m figuring I’ll write in Fred if I can’t vote Romeny.

A great reminder! Our lives, and the lives of countless others (born and unborn) depend on the outcome of the election.

I just hope we have good alternatives to choose from.

I voted for Huckabee today in Tennessee. As for delegates, I voted for 8 state-wide Huckabee delegates, and 4 Thompson delegates. In the county, Huckabee did not have delegates in play, so I voted for two Thompson delegates and the uncommitted. I should preface this by saying I picked the delegates I knew to be most Conservative. It was funny that none of the names I was looking for were on Romney’s nor McCain’s list.

Sorry boss, but I just do not agree with you on Huck.

However, I did send in my check yesterday to FR.
