Romney: Looking Good

At the "Values Voter" summit over the weekend, a number of GOP presidential hopefuls made the rounds.

The astute John Fund suggests that Mitt Romney is rapidly emerging as the socially conservative alternative to John McCain. Sounds good to me -- everything I've read and heard about Romney sounds right on, including this. What's more, it takes no inconsiderable political skills, after eight years as governor as one of the bluest states in the nation, to have the credibility to campaign as a social conservative.

(And let's not even mention how good looking Romney is, because that would be frivolous.)

Romney does not have McCain's problems. Other problems will be created though by the Dems.

Snodly -- Do you have documentation that Mitt Romney pushed a law through that made Mass. taxpayers pay for gay marriage? I find this hard to believe, since he opposes gay marriage. Why would he ask people to pay for something he doesn't even think should exist? And how do our taxes go to pay for any kind of marriage?

He is hardly a "RINO". Instead, he is a Republican governor in a very blue state who did as much good as he could, considering who he had to work with. He knew when he ran that he wouldn't be able to push all (or even most) of his policies through, due to the opposition that would surround him on all sides. I think you're being WAY too hard on him.

Nice list Snodly. Thanks for that. I have Human Events in my favorites, but haven't checked it out lately. Do they have a top ten list of GOOD choices?

When he told Sheik Al-Whatshisname to keep his money - he got my attention! He actually cleaned up NYC - Times Square is now a place one can take the family. Unless you really know NY, you can't undertstand the magnitude of this act.
He's got guts! And while I disagree with him on many points, his courage is a breath of fresh air.
