His policies are grounded on a solid foundation in God's Word. He is one in a lifetime opportunity to make a difference in the troubled times that we are in, and that we would otherwise face extreme adversity under either of the two Democratic runners.

Romney will provide some extra warmth and likeability. No matter what he is saying he never stops smiling and if there is a camera he always gazes forthrightly into it... that, my friends is WARMTH. That's LIKEABILITY. This is especially important after eight years of the extremely warm and likeable George W. Bush... Americans are used to having a warm, likeable leader. McCain is also rather short... about 5 foot 10 and he often stands in a hunched-over posture. Romney is 6 foot 3 and always stands in an erect, military posture. He adds some much needed height to the GOP ticket. Mccain's positions on the issues have changed over the years... and some of those positions are liberals. Romney, on he other hand, has consistently and resolutely stuck to the same rock-solid conservative positions all his life. And you can't doubt his sincerity... his eyes are as blue as the sky, his teeth white as snow, his chin is as square as Dudley Do-Right's. His shirts are always crisp and his ties always firmly knotted. Romney just oozes sincerity from every pore of his being. And Romney is of course from California. (He just bought a house in La Jolla.) He is a former governor in the Ronald Reagan tradition. This means he can deliver the electoral votes of the largest state in the union.

You know he was lying. The people of Michigan either didn't think so or didn't care. Either way, Mitt isn't really my first, second, or even third choice. But he isn't the total albatross people make him out to be. I know he was lying. You know he was lying. The people of Michigan either didn’t think so or didn’t care.

That is just flat out not true and you know it. There were rules and the Michigan Dem party broke those rules. The Michigan people should be pissed at the state party. They took a chance that the National party wouldn't penalize them and they lost that bet. In the end, the delegates will be seated and all will be closer to normal. As for Mitt delivering michigan, I just don't see it. Because his father was a gov there??? Meanwhile, while still in the race, he flat out lied to the Michigan people saying that he would get all their jobs back. That is just blatant pandering and I like to think the general public aren't that blind. Geoff,

The master flip-flopper would really turn off any independent voter that is considering McCain. Not to mention all the Evangelical's heads would explode from the though of voting for a Mormon. Being from Boston, I can tell you Mitt would be your worst nightmare if he is selected as VP. Please please PLEASE make it be Mitt Romney.
