In four years he can do much to prove the naysayers wrong that he’s not a flip-flopper, but a man who’s had a real conversion of heart. Loved his speech today.

I've been thinking about this today. How does a man out of office erase his record and get people to believe the opposite about him? The MSM did this for McCain, but Romney did not have this luxury. He has a tough road ahead of him to convince the skeptics. Had I believed him, he would have had my support this time around. However, all I had to go by was a long list of activist judges and actions that I would not want to see out of a president.

He does this by supporting CAUSES. Like being active in the pro-life movement, fighting the Culture of Death, using his name now to support things he supposedly flip-flopped on. Now he's got name recognition, his opinion will be more valuable than before. This will go along way to appease those who doubt his conservative credentials and a good chance at the candidacy in 2012.

Most would say Romney flip flopped throughout the campaign and he is not what he says he is. I say he found himself to late and I really believe he believes what he says not for the sake of just winning, votes, friends and the nomination like everyone else in this lousey campaign. Wasn’t Ronald Reagan a democrate early on in his career and had very different views than he did when he took office? I’m not happy at this point with the choices we have.
