Try this. Scroll down to the article "The Republican Party Must Nominate Mitt Romney. Here's Why:"

Let me know if it comes through.

Why do you think Allen is (as you say) the darling at FR? Because someone has compared his affectations to Thomas Jefferson? Because he was a rebel and adorned his walls with confederate flags in college? Because his dad was head coach for the Washington Redskins? (By the way, everyone seems to forget that George Sr. was head coach for the L.A. Rams--Deacon Jones, Nolan Cromwell, Roger Bacon, Roman Gabriel [those were the days]--BEFORE he signed with the Skins. And I still think Sonny Jurgenson was one of the best q'backs the game ever saw.)

Getting back to Junior, when he comes up with an original thought, with concrete possible solutions to the mess the Left and mainstream media have steered us into (by downplaying America's strength and bashing it and the administration at every opportunity possible), let me know. I'm all ears and I want to hear what the man has to offer in the way of elucidations and maintaining our national security. (Even the judges are de-constructing our security with yesterday's absurd ruling.)

Okey dokey. If you want more info on Mitt, check out RealClearPolitics.com right now, and you'll see several articles about him, including in the RCP blog. Also, the Boston Globe has a serious article about him today, which I believe is also available at RCP.

Don't get me wrong. It's not that I don't like Allen. He has not at all impressed me and has so far brought nothing to the table in the way of viable issues involving the war on terrorism, illegal immigration, government spending, etc. Doubtless, his good-old cowboy demeanor may not be suited for a lot of voters looking to make a change (i.e., democrats). I believe Mitt has the ability to communicate with both sides of the aisle, and we need that kind of communicator.

I didn't forget Allen - I ignore him, because he is his own worst enemy. He needs no one but himself to undermine any effort towards the White House. Same with Brownback, Frist and Huckabee.

I don't understand your last sentence. Who is the winner agreeing with you 50%? and the loser agreeing with you 80%?

And who will YOU support besides your self-admitted sarcasm?

When I joined FR, I was hoping that sarcasm and bitchiness would be left out of the picture. I was wrong.

"Pleasure in our pants" you say? You call that sarcastic? I call it insulting.

My dear, a Democrat's conscience can be found tucked neatly (but not necessarily hygienically) between his legs. And if the Democrat happens to be a "she," well... need I go on?

I'm a diehard Republican, and if someone wants to shout in my face that I'm evil, why should I care? Stick & stones, baby. I'd rather be called evil - and prove them wrong without a shadow of a doubt - then be a blathering, stinking traitor to the United States by sidling up to terrorists.

What the Dems and Libs don't understand is, they THINK they're buying insurance for their future by supporting the murderers. How wrong they are. Muslim extremists do not contract with outside assassins and traitors. Their heads will roll just as smoothly as yours or mine.

Dear NHT:

I just noticed all this back & forth, and, son of a gun, I came across a video that mirrors your attitude to a T. Or is that YOU hopping around on screen?

Enjoy. Sweetie.

Good for you, LibbyLu! That's one of the issues that has stuck in my craw - illegals being given amnesty and escorted to the front of the line, ahead of people who have been waiting for years for their U.S. citizenship.

I believe Mr. Romney has the "stones" to address the problem and make it right.

Take care, and thanks for your response.

Thanks for your response.

This is precisely why I'm looking at Mitt. Heck, I didn't know he was alive until late last year when a very enthusiastic friend of mine brought the Governor to my attention.

I started to look hard, listen harder at Romney, and after these many months arrived at the conclusion that he has the potential to be the strongest Republican candidate. And you're right: he sees the war against terrorists as just that: a war against a brutal regime that is dedicated to wiping out not just Israel, but you and me and the rest of humanity. Do we want a former mayor in the White House? Not I, thank you very much. We need a no-holds-barred guy who isn't fearful of reprisals when he slams the likes of Flip-Flop Kerry with the truth.

Thanks again.

Thanks for your response. I appreciate it.

You know, it's tough enough going to head to head with liberals, but (as you can see from the first response to my comments) it's even tougher when vitrole explodes from someone within my own own party. I think we all want what is best for our country, and as far as I can tell--from all my research--, Mr. Romney is, so far, the best choice for candidate. Who else is there? "Incoming!" McCain? Rudy Giuliani who openly cheated on his wife during his term as Mayor of New York? Ditto New Gingrich?

The Republican party is supposed to be the party of moral values. In that light, we need to seek out a leader with those types of morals. He also needs to be tough out of the gate, a man of his own mind, and, as far as I'm concerned, opposed to the invasion of illegal immigrants who are being pushed to the head of the line in the name of amnesty.

I'm someone who loves my country, who believes in in our greatness, and who wants the best man -- Read: MAN -- in the White House.

Then I shall pray for you.

Did it come up smooth or chunky?

When the news broke yesterday (8/10) about how Scotland Yard (thank you!) broke into a terrorist cell and busted up what could've been a disaster of enormous proportions, one of the first stories reported after this revelation was that Mitt Romney had ordered up the National Guard in Massachusetts to cover Logan Airport. He was the first to do it. This shows me that he's a man with a singular mission: to do what's right. And after reading the article at the Townhall blog, I'm convinced that Mitt's our man.
