Romney knows the economy pretty well. I will give him that. I just don't trust him enough based on his past. He changes his mind too much for me even on issues that I don't care about. There is not enough consistency in his record. However, if McCain wins, the GOP is done. I still have a hard time reconciling how evangelicals will move to a Mormon over a soft spoken Christian who is against the war.

Let me ease your mind paperhouse. as far as this flip flop changing his mind stuff, with Romney, would a prolife hardcore social conservative, ever get elected govenor of the state of Massachusets? the answer is no way!! So doesnt it stand to reason that, knowing that, Romney a devout Mormon, was moderating his views THEN to get elected, so that he could at least make some change in the right direction. He is A Mormon for crying out loud, I believe he is really more conservative than he could be in Massachusets. I am a evangelical Christian and I will most certainly vote for him over Huckabee, and I am not alone! Huckabee is againts the war?

Huckabee seems like a nice guy, BUT, BUT, quick one liners and snappy retorts does not a president make. I like the idea of a consumption tax and I have long voiced it, but I'm a realist to know it will never happen as it will negatively effect to many industries. (CPA's, Tax Software companies, entire companies devoted to tax lax, tax payments etc.) so yes it's a great idea but it'll never fly.
Right now I think Huckabee needs to drop out, he's helping McCain, (who supported the surge ) by staying in and I think that's why he's doing it. Both McCain and Huckabee dislike Romney ... which is all the more reason to like him.

You can bet that Mccain regrets supporting the compromise immigration bill and Romney regrets even mentioning the private withdrawl plan comment.You can bet Hillary regrets the gender comments and obama regrets the reagan comment. Whether defining or not they tend to stick like glue.

You people are tooooo funny.

This guy is an idiot.

Why doesnt someone ask this moron this.

McAmnesty, if your are such a military expert, then WHY DID IT TAKE 3 FREAKIN YEARS FOR YOU TO SUPPORT THE DAMN SURGE !!!

Opps sorry, he didnt come up with the idea did he? Guess he is not a strong military leader afterall.

Romney did well to sit back and not bow to the low standards of the PORK BARRELED RAT FACT McKennedy. I liked the above, slap him off the chair. OMG... that would have been so cool.

McCain only won Florida because of the hispanic and cuban votes, so lets see how he does on Tuesday. If the rest of the country votes for him then I guess those who see him for what he really is are blind or something.

** Will someone please ask Hillary of she gets the nomination if Mcamnesty will be her VP !!!
