Mitt has my vote....and he should have yours!

Ok, maybe some of you might think my title is too bold, but after last night's GOP debate, I'm absolutely moved beyond words.

First I would like to start with my overall opinion of the debate. I watched from start to finish and was very impressed with the behavior of all the candidates, in that it didn't turn into a "bash my fellow republican candidates" party. Everyone for the most part was on their best behavior and spoke more about what they themselves believed in, rather than what another candidate is or is going to do. That being said, I'm DISGUSTED with the manner in which several of the questions were asked. It was as if all they were trying to do was create negativity and a fight between the candidates. SHAME on the people that decided on those things. You obviously don't care about the true nature of the problems facing this country and you're looking for a cat fight between candidates to make better T.V. SHAME ON YOU!

Next, I'd like to discuss the recent Democratic Debate, before I get to last night. I don't watch the Democratic Debates. I don't care about what they have to say. I made the mistake of watching one of them and spent the entire night being disgusted because they are all WAY too liberal for my blood. I'm a conservative. That's what I am. I don't believe in same sex marriage; I believe everyone has the right to gun ownership; I believe the war in Iraq, although not always handled properly, was a GOOD idea; I believe that GOD should be left in the pledge of allegiance, etc. It was brought up at the debate last night that at the last Democratic Debate Hillary Clinton said regarding the war in Iraq, "We need to wave the white flag of surrender and set a date for withdrawal of the troops." Ok, I'm going to try to say this lightly.......IS SHE JUST STUPID??? Let me start by saying this: No one LIKES going to war! (Ok there are a few sick people in the world, but I'm speaking of the general population.) No one LIKES that many men and women have lost their lives in the fighting of this war. And I'll be one to admit that there have been many mistakes in Washington regarding the war. All of that being said.....I'm going to make this very clear and then I'm going to drop it, because I fear I may go on a rant longer than humans will be able to read....If we remove our troops from Iraq, two things are going to happen. First, the terrorists are going to party, because they've won. Then, they are going to bring the bloodshed onto American soil. Our troops overseas KEEP THE WAR AND BLOODSHED OFF AMERICAN SOIL! So, SHAME ON HILLARY CLINTON and the rest of the Democrats who were arrogant enough to say that THEY are the reason morale is so good now. The ONLY people who are responsible for the successes overseas are our Veterans and the members of the United States Armed Forces!.....Oh, it makes me want to be sick!

Ok, so let's get onto last night and my man Mitt. Not only did he get a GREAT amount of air time but he was FANTASTIC in his answers....presidential if you will *wink*. He was able to keep up very well with the other candidates and was able to get some great 'one liners' in that I feel kept him grounded. He was able to explain a lot about what he'd like to do to get this country back on it's feet and I think he did so with the same conviction I used to see in Ronald Regan. He has a way I think of drawing people in. I sat in front of my T.V. absolutely moved when he spoke and even found myself cheering and rolling on the floor with his comment in regard to taking on Hillary AND Bill Clinton in November. I honestly think he's the ONLY Republican candidate, if he gets the nomination, that can beat Hillary in the general election. He believes in change because as he states it, "Washington is broken!" and I believe him 100%. I want a change. The comments made by the Democrats scare me. I DO NOT want my children to grow up in the world that this year's Democratic candidates have planned for us!!!!

If you want a change in Washington, if you want the best for your children's future, if you want to keep REPUBLICAN CONSERVATIVE IDEAS in the white house AND have the big issue's of this country tackled, Mitt Romney is your man! He's the only one that many of us believe can beat the Democrats in the general election!

I hope you all have a great day, and if you're a registered Republican, I'll look forward to seeing you at the polls on this coming Tuesday, January 29th, 2008 and VOTE MITT ROMNEY!

Mitt was articulate on every issue he addressed.

Polls before the debate showed him gaining traction in Florida, and his performance last night will only enhance his standing.

ABSOLUTELY! If I wasn't already a HUGE supporter, I would've been made one last night, he was brilliant!
