I think I answered that in your Duncan thread.

The man is smarmy and talks out of both sides of his mouth.

Before anyone votes for a Morman read the book of Morman.

He's trying too hard to be all things to all people and I personally can't respect that in a candidate. The "I'm a hunter" was ridiculous.
On the subject of religion, does anyone find it amusing that his faith is brought up so often, but he's the only one in the "top tier" that has been married to only one woman?

I doubt a word of the Book of Mormon, but there are some beautiful stories in there. Anyone read Revelations lately?! That'll knock your socks off! Who believes THAT stuff????

I don't want anything to do with Romney after recently finding out that he is opposed to legal medical marijuana. He probably wouldn't care if medical marijuana patients in wheel chairs got arrested while real criminals roamed the streets.

Good for you. The important thing is to vote. Whom you vote for it entirely up to you and your conscience, as long as you do your duty as a responsible citizen and vote.

Romney is a stuffed suit. Yeah, he's competent, "clean and articulate", but that image is all he has. As one liberal Democrat in Massachussettes told me "We just elect the occasional moderate Republicans to keep the hippies in Cambridge in line".

Still, I think Romney, Huckabee, or Rudy will be the frontrunners for the Republicans. And they'll still lose. Huckabee will have a wider margin in defeat, and Rudy will probably have the least. I think Romney or Huckabee are probably the most likely get the party's nomination, though, definitely the strongest with the "base", such as it is.
