The American Spectator

/p> p> You can try to discredit Romney and the conservatives supporting him all you like, but for the majority of the campaign El Rushbo, Sean Hannity and Glenn Beck, to name a few were all pushing him pretty hard. If not for irregularities in the nominating process where the states that McCain won were winner take all and Romney seeming to win all the proportionally divided states the race may have turned out differently. In fact, now that the economy has proven to be the topic of the election I seriously wonder if Romney would not be the candidate today if things had moved a little quicker. Romney does face some drawbacks in a national election. There is no doubt that all the people who threw away their vote to Huckabee will play some role, that in my opinion seems to be more a matter of Religious bigotry than conservative principles. Romney brings the greatest business experience on the stage. He took an institution like the Olympics that was a complete mess of overspending and bureaucracy and turned it into a well oiled profitable machine. Imagine what he could do if given the chance with our government. McCain foolishly made the statement about not knowing much about the economy, Romney brings that strength. Hopefully McCain will be wise enough to use it. br> — Rob Andrus br> Vail, Colorado /p>

Your article about Mitt Romney today is ridiculous, and it’s entirely possible that you’re nuts!

Our entire lives, as Christians, we’ve been told to watch out for Mormons — what are they going to do — are they waiting for their big break, and then they’re gonna pounce on us?

You have been drinking the anti-Mormon Kool-Aid and if you’re not nuts, then you are paralyzed with fear! Your article is written from your fear-based position in life. You must be concerned about losing something — power or money, one could imagine.

Mitt Romney is the most decent man around in politics today. Our country would benefit greatly from this wonderful man who has 5 wonderful children, a wife who loves and cherishes him, is a successful entrepreneur, and understands the basic principles and values of conservatism and republican ideals.

What needs to happen is that everyone needs to realize that once people get to know Mitt Romney, they will like him. If people can vote for John McCain — they will certainly receive a big bonus with Mitt Romney as VP. People are scared, just like you might be, of voting for a Mormon — plain and simple. So what they need is an opportunity to get to know and see for themselves how good someone like Mitt Romney can be for them.

I can think of no better ambassador for the United States of America than Mitt Romney! Words that describe him are: Clean & Articulate! Intelligent! Class! Entrepreneurial Spirit! Wit! Common Sense! Style! American! Internationally Friendly! Family Friendly! Congenial! Charm! Considerate! Experience! Complimentary! Enthusiastic! Positive! Not to mention Fun, Boyish, Manly & Handsome!
