Same here. MR flayed Zero alive and it would be insane to think otherwise. But he is still who his record shows he is and that’s the way it is.

Sad that most of conservatism has grown more liberal by each successive election, but that too is the way it is. And I wish them luck. But Congrats to MR on the win. He will almost definitely be the next President.

MR is not my ideal candidate, but he is a step in the right direction. We didn't lose this country to the left overnight, and we won't take it back overnight. MR is a start. Then let's get people like Hermann Cain, Sarah Palin and other like-minded, true conservatives elected to the WH

Hey y'all. I listened to the debate on radio while following the FR thread, and like you, I readily admit that Romney kicked Obama's butt all over that stage tonight. No doubt about it. Even the lamestream media agrees.

As to Mitt's core instincts, and how he'll govern as president, I think another Freeper upthread said it best: he won't be another Reagan, but he'll likely govern close to Bush 43.

I'm not looking forward to gnashing my teeth for another four years of Bush style "compassionate conservatism", but I'll take it over four more years of abject Marxism any day.

I think Romney made the sale with millions of voters tonight, but he's still going to have to prove to me that he's not going to revert to his former liberal ways before I relax a bit.

I must say, though, after listening to him tonight, I'm at least open to giving the man a chance to do that.

I'm having a terrible time trying to stay on the forum and it keeps kicking off the net, then I do a arrow back and hit post again if I'm trying to post. I see a did a double post and there could be more of those after the extra one I just saw.

Thanks for posting. You and I are stuck with the truth and our Christian beliefs and we can't throw that away. This election goes to our core beliefs and we all have to make our own personal choice.
