Mitt Romney for President!
January 24, 2008 01:00 PM EST

What an interesting month we have had! It’s only going to get better. Which is why after much deliberation, I have decided to endorse Mitt Romney for the Republican nomination and of course for President. In thinking about this, I realized that Mitt has the best of all the candidates. None of them are perfect and to quote many other conservative writers ‘none are Ronald Reagan’, but Romney has the core conservative principles that will make him the better President over his rivals.

On a side note:
I wish to remind Fox News that ‘flip-flopping’ requires you to change your mind, some would argue, as I would, change it more than once on an issue, hence FLIP and FLOP. I do not see Romney flip-flopping, maybe he flipped, but he certainly hasn’t flopped. We must all understand when people change their minds on issues, or amplify their responses, they are making a correction in their lives. Its better to admit that you were wrong in my opinion, that is respectable. Romney’s competitors have flipped and even flopped on numerous occasions. We can’t hold many of these against them. If a candidate wishes to change their mind on the issue to agree 100% with me, then I am all for that. Maybe they read these articles.

In all seriousness, Gov. Romney shares his views quite openly and honestly not 'plastic' or 'fake' as many analysts call him. Maybe they would like Romney to beef up his image and wear a biker jacket.

On the issues: he is for REAL immigration reform that includes enforcing the borders and laws we have now including some sort of ID card and punishing employers. That’s a good start. He is the best conservative candidate because he believes in limited government, free markets especially in dealing with health care. He has the knowledge and the business know how to help a country which is facing a major financial crisis. He is also for school choice which is an issue President Bush dropped quite quickly after he was in office. He is also for traditional marriage and family values. These are social issues, but they are very important to many voters. Gov. Romney understands that having 2 parents, a mother and a father, are much better and healthier for the child. I’m certain he understands that it is important that parents have more involvement in their children's lives from the TV they watch to the school they attend. All of this will benefit our society in the future.

We have been in need of a person with a strong head for business to run this country for decades. Mitt Romney has the that experience and will make executive decisions like a CEO, not a poll-a-tition. As with any republican, he will have a battle on their hands this fall. I believe that Romney will win if he concentrates on 2 important issues: the economy and national security. Social issues can be pushed to a distant third. Not that they aren’t as important, but I feel that more Americans are looking for a leader to be fiscally responsible first and social second.

My choice is Gov. Romney and I will continue to make my case for him as the election season continues to heat up. If you need to find a combination of all the candidates rolled into one, then look no further than Mighty Mitt! I may expect a lot from him, but we really shouldn’t expect any less, he’s a great guy.
