DO NOT LET THE MEDIA TRICK YOU CONCERNING REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES FOR PRESIDENT.
DO NOT LET THEM TRICK YOU INTO LOSING HOPE FOR THE CANDIDATE OF YOUR CHOICE.
DO NOT LET THEM TRICK YOU INTO VOTING FOR "Rmoney" LIKE THEY TRICKED YOU INTO VOTING FOR McCAIN IN THE 2008 ELECTION.



Mitt = Obama Lite
Like Rush Limbaugh(click for link) said, and I agree, we don't need a flip-flopping, moderate. You might need a moderate if you were grasping for votes in a tight election. But with a strong, conservative, and experienced candidate, we're not going to be grasping for votes in an election against a record as pathetic as Barack Obama's(click for link).

NOTE:
I'm not going to watch any interview with an ex-wife of Newt Gingrich or anyone else for that matter...not because I want to bury my head in the sand so as not to hear it because I'm a Newt supporter but because I generally feel very uncomfortable and embarrassed for women who submit themselves to the slime-ball media networks and go public on personal, family matters. I think that they lower themselves and present their self as being weak and somehow responsible for the problem when they publically explain why and how they lost their husband.


Newt's
21st Century Contract with America: The First Day

In this installment of my analysis of Newt's 21st Century Contract with America we will consider what Newt proposes for his first day in office.

I find it particularly interesting that Newt Gingrich's approach(click for video) to the first day is so strong and bold. As one of the republican candidates for President of the United States and running in the 2012 Republican Presidential Election process, Newt Gingrich(click for link) demonstrates his unique ability to think through problems and then pinpoint solutions. His thoughts about solutions seem to come almost as fast as a rabbit being chased by a hoot owl, if you can imagine that.
***Obama can always find and use Tax-Payer Money for this kind of Tragedy*** 
***Click for Video***

When those of us who will cast votes in primaries across the country consider the republican candidates, we will inevitably be forced to consider the solutions proposed by each candidate and then decide if it's bold enough to move us out of this seriously wrong European socialist model that has been the primary focus of the Obama administration. The first day of any post-Obama administration will have to be aggressive, decisive, and hit hard enough to immediately give the country some relief from the policies that have resulted from the 2008 election of Barack Hussein Obama(click for link).

Here's Newt's contract with us for the first day:

Eliminate the thirty-nine White House "Czar" positions created during the current administration. (For a look at Obama's czars and their salaries and responsibilities click here:
http://www.glennbeck.com/content/articles/article/198/29391/ )

This one is rather self-explanatory. The czars are unconstitutional because they are appointees of the President who have, in some cases, monetary authority and huge salaries but are not subject to Congressional oversight. Ugly. But, Obama does what he wants. Our Founding Fathers are rolling over in their respective graves on this one.

"Mexico City Policy" of Respect for Life. Reauthorize President Ronald Reagan’s policy – also known as the "Mexico City Policy"— to stop tax payer dollars from being used to fund or promote abortions in foreign countries.

We need to take every opportunity to protect the right to life which our founding documents demand. Ensuring that tax dollars are not abused in this fashion provides an example for our neighbors. We value life. You should, too. If we presume to protect life here, yet by default oppose it elsewhere by letting other countries do it with OUR money, we send a confused message to the world about what is important to us.

Restore conscience clause protections for Healthcare Workers. No American working in a medical environment should be forced to perform any procedure that he or she finds morally or ethically objectionable based on religious teaching. This protection should include, but not be limited to abortion. Existing conscience clause protections need to be strengthened.

Each of us has a right to our own belief system and to demand that we violate our conscience with the threat of punishment is just plain wrong. We have for years accepted conscientioius objectors when it comes to their unwillingness to kill others during conflicts. Why shouldn't the same recognition come for healthcare workers who would rather not participate in killing another human being?

Respect Each Sovereign Nation’s Choice of its Capital. Each sovereign nation, under international law and custom, may designate its own Capital. Accordingly, the U.S. State Department should be instructed to respect the choice of each sovereign nation and place the American embassy in their Capital. (Israel is the only country the United States discriminates against in this regard. The people of Israel have designated Jerusalem as their capital. Yet the United States retains its embassy in Tel Aviv.)

Why this hasn't been done before now is beyond me. Taking this action will give both Israel and the world the very clear message that we recognize Jerursalem as Israel's Capital. Something prior U.S. Presidents have obviously been afraid to do.

End the Attorney General's Assault on the States. Instruct the Attorney General to withdraw all immigration-related lawsuits against states immediately, including those pending in Arizona and South Carolina. The Obama Administration refuses to enforce federal immigration laws, and instead sues states who are merely trying to enforce the laws that the federal government neglects. The Gingrich Administration will secure the border by Jan. 1, 2014 by any means necessary.

The Attorney General of the United States under the current administration has relentlessly sought to use the courts to have it's way with the states. I happen to live in the State of Arkansas. We have a Constitution.

http://www.arkleg.state.ar.us/assembly/Summary/ArkansasConstitution1874.pdf

That Constitution provides that we are a sovereign state. What right does the Attorney General have to keep us from endorsing laws intended to protect Arkansans from illegal immigration?

Unleash American Energy by Approving the Keystone XL Pipeline. Instruct the State Department to approve a Presidential Permit immediately for the Keystone XL pipeline, a project that will send 700,000 barrels of oil a day from Great Plains and Southwestern states to Gulf Coast refineries lower staggering energy prices, and create up to 120,000 American jobs.

I will venture a guess here and say that there are very few Americans who believe that the Keystone Pipeline to be a bad idea. The fact that Obama is shunting America's ability to both create new jobs AND continue progress toward energy independence is a disgrace. Of course, it is the stated position of every one of the republican candidates in this republican primary, and the Republican Party(click for video), that the pipeline should be approved forthwith. The difference is that Newt will do something about it on Day One. Shoot, if I were Newt I'd start taking applications for pipeline jobs on his campaign website (
http://www.newt.org/HYPERLINK "http://www.newt.org/" ) right now just to prove that American support for this project goes way beyond party lines.

Each of these first day solutions is bold and doable. Can you imagine the impact of having each of these handled on the first day?

Newt's 21st Century Contract with America Continued

Unemployment in America is always a point of discussion in presidential elections and particularly when it comes to republican candidates. This is especially true in the 2012 republican primary when unemployment as reported has been hovering around 9% in the 3+ years since the 2008 election, and real unemployment is probably more like 20%(what's the real unemployment rate) . Each republican candidates take on unemployment and how it can best be reduced is then filtered through the lense of those of us in the Republican Party(click for link) who believe people should be given a hand up and not a handout.

Under the current unemployment system a qualified person can receive up to 99 weeks of unemployment without having to do anything but "look for work." Whatever that means.

Of course, one way of reducing unemployment numbers is simply to create an economic environment favorable to creating jobs, as opposed to killing them. Newt Gingrich(click for link) recognizes that fact in the 21st Century Contract with America:

"The best way to repair our broken unemployment compensation system is to make the problem of perennially high unemployment obsolete through robust economic growth."

Click For Video - Mark Levin
In the meantime, what do we do? What can we do long term to manage these unemployment issues years down the road when we recess out of a recovery again, something that is surely to happen given the volatile nature of the free market when government continually sticks it's proverbial nose in our business?

What if there was a Federal law to require the qualified long-term unemployed to get some form of training (program would be directed by the states) during their tenure of extended unemployment? Shoot, 99 weeks is an Associates Degree! What if we gave some of the qualified long-term unemployed the opportunity to get an Associates Degree?

Well, in order to accomplish that we will need to introduce appropriate Federal legislation. Right now, all you have to do to get unemployment is qualify. Once you're on it, you're on 99 weeks of welfare, for all intents and purposes. If Newt Gingrich has his way, there will be no handouts - only a hand up.

In his 21st Century Contract with America he suggests:

"...Ninety-nine weeks is too long for any American to be dependent on the government. It is fundamentally wrong to give people money for 99 weeks for doing nothing...We can better help these Americans by requiring them to participate in real training programs in private companies, in exchange for temporary unemployment aid.
It is also why I will introduce a training requirement for extended federal unemployment benefits. We can better help these Americans by requiring them to participate in real training programs in private companies, in exchange for temporary unemployment aid.
Our goal is to convert the time and money now lost to a maintenance unemployment program into a human capital investment program that increases the competitiveness of
the American worker in the world market in a time of dramatic scientific and technological change."

One should take note that this is not for those who are in the first term of their unemployment. It would apply only to those attempting to qualify for extended unemployment benefits.

There will be those who say this is nothing more than forced labor; doing something the unemployed may not be interested in doing, etc. Translated, that means those that don't want to work might have to work and forcing them to work is wrong. Well, it's not forced labor and no Ameridcan in their right mind would believe that. Those who want the handout will not get the extended benefits. Real simple.

Of course, there are those out there like Juan Williams of FOX News who learned very quickly that Newt knows what he's talking about. In last night's SC debate sponsored by FOX News and The Wall Street Journal, Newt responded strongly to Juan's insinuation that somehow Newt was belittling those that are on unemployment. See the clip here:
http://nation.foxnews.com/2012-presidential-race/2012/01/16/gingrich-and-juan-williams-food-stamp-exchange-brings-debate-crowd-its-feet?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+FoxNation+%28Fox+Nation%29

One last point: If you have ever been unemployed for any extended period of time, you know how bad you wanted help to get work - any work. Newt's proposal as one of the republican candidates for POTUS in the 2012 republican presidential election process, will help America's unemployed get work or get trained for work. Human capital is a valuable asset and worthy of investing in. In President Gingrich's world, there'll be no handouts.

Newt's 21st Century Contract with America

Well, the republican candidates are down to the South Carolina republican presidential election process and it's last 2 days. The mainstream media (MSM) would have it that Mitt Romney is the annointed one in the republican party(click for link). Whether Mitt Romney will be the nominee is a fair debate to have. What is unfair about the MSM's approach is to continually imply that Mitt Romney is the presumptive nominee is wrong. In the interest of continuing the reasonable debate about who the nominee should be as opposed to the MSM model of who it will be, let's talk about the only other republican candidates who is demonstrating the capacity to beat the 2008 election winner, President Barack Hussein Obama(click for link) in the 2012 presidential election: Newt Gingrich(click for link).

Early on in his race for the nomination, Newt Gingrich proposed a 21st Century Contract with America
http://www.newt.org/contract/download

modeled after the successful 1994 Contract with America. Most of us in a free society know what it means to enter into a contract: one party agrees to provide something in return for the other party's commitment to do something else. While a civil contract is enforceable in court, a contract like the one proposed by Newt Gingrich(click for link) is enforceable at the ballot box.

The idea behind the 1994 Contract with America was to ensure that the American people knew what they would get when they elected republicans into a majority in the House of Representatives. It worked. Enter the 21st Century Contract with America. Obviously, its introduction is intended to ensure that the American people know what they will get when they nominate Newt Gingrich. So, over the next few days we'll take a look at some of the key elements of the 21st Century Contract with America and discuss them like good Americans living in a free Republic do.

Essentially, the 21st Century Contract with America has four parts:

1. A set of legislative proposals to shi" America back to job creation, prosperity, freedom, and safety;

2. A "First Day" project of Executive Orders to be signed on inauguration day to immediately transform the way the executive branch works;

3. A training program for the transition teams and the appointees who will lead the shift back to Constitutional, limited government; and,

4. A system of citizen involvement to help us sustain grassroots support for change and help implement the change through 2021.

We will be looking at the legislative proposals which will arguably tend to have the largest impact on the way our government operates should we be fortunate enough to have the White House and majorities in the House and the Senate in 2013.

Let's get started with Number 10 on the Contract's list of legislative proposals:

Enforce the Tenth Amendment by starting an orderly transfer of power and responsibility from the federal government back "to the states, respectively, or to the people," as the Constitution requires. Over the next year, state and local officials and citizens will be asked to identify the areas which can be transferred back home. This bill will decisively return power and responsibility to the states and the citizens.

The Tenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America states as follows: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

The Tenth Amendment was designed to keep the Federal government from dictating to the states how they should govern. In some cases, how they WILL govern. However, it has been trampled on repeatedly by republican and democrat controlled legislatures.

Newt's proposal would require that whether in the House or the Senate a bill must first pass a simple test: Are we overstepping our bounds and usurping powers that should belong to the people and the states?

In Newt's own words in the contract:

"America works best when states are free to craft innovative policies and compete with one another for talent, resources, and investment. When Washington imposes one-size-fits-all rules and regulations, the positive and unique advantages of our federalist system are lost. Many responsibilities that the federal government has assumed to itself should be returned to the states."

James Madison put it thus:

"I find, from looking into the amendments proposed by the State conventions, that several are particularly anxious that it should be declared in the Constitution, that the powers not therein delegated should be reserved to the several States. Perhaps words which may define this more precisely than the whole of the instrument now does, may be considered as superfluous. I admit they may be deemed unnecessary: but there can be no harm in making such a declaration, if gentlemen will allow that the fact is as stated. I am sure I understand it so, and do therefore propose it."

The primary concern at the time was that the Federal government might power grab, leaving the states with little alternative other than to concede. The states understood the dangers of that and attempted to solve that with this amendment, despite calls that it was redundant and unnecessary. Unfortunately, the final language in the amendment did not use the word "expressly" to describe the delegated powers and as a result we now have a Federal government which consistently oversteps its boundaries. Newt Gingrich would have it otherwise. He is the only one of the republican candidates in the 2012 republican primary and presidential election who has proposed bold solutions in the form of a contract. He deserves our very serious consideration.

Tomorrow we'll tackle another one of Newt's 21st Century Contract with America legislative proposals.

But with a strong, conservative, and experienced candidate, we're not going to be grasping for votes in an election against a record as pathetic as Barack Obama's(click for link).


Moderate Mitt?  You Decide
As we move into the South Carolina Primary, I thought I'd remind our readers that there are those in the Republican Party(click for link) who have gone before and done the right thing. They were led in large part by Newt Gingrich(click for link), one of the Republican Candidates for President of the United States. As I write this, Newt is in the middle of a surge according to recent polling. In fact, it is a statistical dead heat between he and 2012 Republican primary candidate Moderate Mitt Romney, recently endorsed by his moderate brother, John McCain, the 2008 election republican nominee and loser of that presidential election(click for link).

If you think Mitt Romney is not a moderate then I suggest you take the following quote and match it up to your belief system which should be supported by your support of the Conservative Contract with America for which Newt Gingrich(click for link) deserves much of the credit.

Click for Link
Here's your quote: "Look, I was an independent during the time of Reagan-Bush. I'm not trying to take us back to Reagan-Bush. Ultimately, this is a campaign about change." This was a quote from his race against the Lion of the Senate, Teddy Kennedy, in the same year the Contract with America was produced by Newt.

You decide whether Mitt is a moderate.

Here's the Contract:

THE 1994 REPUBLICAN CONTRACT WITH AMERICA

As Republican (Party) Members of the House of Representatives and as citizens seeking to join that body we propose not just to change its policies, but even more important, to restore the bonds of trust between the people and their elected representatives.

That is why, in this era of official evasion and posturing, we offer instead a detailed agenda for national renewal, a written commitment with no fine print.

This year's election offers the chance, after four decades of one-party control, to bring to the House a new majority that will transform the way Congress works. That historic change would be the end of government that is too big, too intrusive, and too easy with the public's money. It can be the beginning of a Congress that respects the values and shares the faith of the American family.

Like Lincoln, our first Republican (Party) president, we intend to act "with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right." To restore accountability to Congress. To end its cycle of scandal and disgrace. To make us all proud again of the way free people govern themselves.

click to watch powerful video
On the first day of the 104th Congress, the new Republican majority will immediately pass the following major reforms, aimed at restoring the faith and trust of the American people in their government:

FIRSTrequire all laws that apply to the rest of the country also apply equally to the Congress;

SECONDselect a major, independent auditing firm to conduct a comprehensive audit of Congress for waste, fraud or abuse;

THIRDcut the number of House committees, and cut committee staff by one-third;

FOURTHlimit the terms of all committee chairs;

FIFTHban the casting of proxy votes in committee;

SIXTHrequire committee meetings to be open to the public;

SEVENTHrequire a three-fifths majority vote to pass a tax increase;

EIGHTHguarantee an honest accounting of our Federal Budget by implementing zero base-line budgeting.

Thereafter, within the first 100 days of the 104th Congress, we shall bring to the House Floor the following bills, each to be given full and open debate, each to be given a clear and fair vote and each to be immediately available this day for public inspection and scrutiny.

1. THE FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY ACT: A balanced budget/tax limitation amendment and a legislative line-item veto to restore fiscal responsibility to an out- of-control Congress, requiring them to live under the same budget constraints as families and businesses.

2. THE TAKING BACK OUR STREETS ACT: An anti-crime package including stronger truth-in- sentencing, "good faith" exclusionary rule exemptions, effective death penalty provisions, and cuts in social spending from this summer's "crime" bill to fund prison construction and additional law enforcement to keep people secure in their neighborhoods and kids safe in their schools.

3. THE PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY ACT: Discourage illegitimacy and teen pregnancy by prohibiting welfare to minor mothers and denying increased AFDC for additional children while on welfare, cut spending for welfare programs, and enact a tough two-years-and-out provision with work requirements to promote individual responsibility.

4. THE FAMILY REINFORCEMENT ACT: Child support enforcement, tax incentives for adoption, strengthening rights of parents in their children's education, stronger child pornography laws, and an elderly dependent care tax credit to reinforce the central role of families in American society.

5. THE AMERICAN DREAM RESTORATION ACT: A $500 per child tax credit, begin repeal of the marriage tax penalty, and creation of American Dream Savings Accounts to provide middle class tax relief.

6. THE NATIONAL SECURITY RESTORATION ACT: No U.S. troops under U.N. command and restoration of the essential parts of our national security funding to strengthen our national defense and maintain our credibility around the world.

7. THE SENIOR CITIZENS FAIRNESS ACT: Raise the Social Security earnings limit which currently forces seniors out of the work force, repeal the 1993 tax hikes on Social Security benefits and provide tax incentives for private long-term care insurance to let Older Americans keep more of what they have earned over the years.

8. THE JOB CREATION AND WAGE ENHANCEMENT ACT: Small business incentives, capital gains cut and indexation, neutral cost recovery, risk assessment/cost-benefit analysis, strengthening the Regulatory Flexibility Act and unfunded mandate reform to create jobs and raise worker wages.

9. THE COMMON SENSE LEGAL REFORM ACT: "Loser pays" laws, reasonable limits on punitive damages and reform of product liability laws to stem the endless tide of litigation.

10. THE CITIZEN LEGISLATURE ACT: A first-ever vote on term limits to replace career politicians with citizen legislators.

Further, we will instruct the House Budget Committee to report to the floor and we will work to enact additional budget savings, beyond the budget cuts specifically included in the legislation described above, to ensure that the Federal budget deficit will be less than it would have been without the enactment of these bills.

Respecting the judgment of our fellow citizens as we seek their mandate for reform, we hereby pledge our names to this Contract with America.

Additional Note: As the Contract With America worked brilliantly, Newt will of course, continue these policies and is in the process of developing "The 21st Century Contract With America ~

OBAMA - RUNNING FROM HIS RECORD, BUT HE WON'T BE ABLE TO HIDE FROM IT.

In a "60 Minutes" interview, Mr. Obama offered what might be insight into his 2012 presidential election strategy. It takes some decoding, but his underlying strategic goals emerge in what he says, "The question next year is going to be — and then this is how a democracy is supposed to work — do they see a more compelling vision coming out from the other side? Do they think that cutting taxes further, including on the wealthy, cutting taxes on corporations, of gutting regulations — do we think that that is going to be somehow more successful? And if the American people think that that’s a recipe for success and a majority are persuaded by that, then I’m going to lose."

It appears he wants the election to be a referendum on the Republican candidates and their political philosophy. By posing the key question as whether the GOP remedy for the economy will be "somehow more successful," he makes it clear that he wants this contest to be about the Republican Party proposals. The proposals from Newt Gingrich, do however hold promise; I’ve seen them work twice in my lifetime.

President Obama hopes he can fool the American People and appear to be running as a non-incumbent, abandoning all but a pro forma defense of his record and instead running as he would were there an open seat, thus pretending it’s the 2008 election again. He wants it to be the 2008 election all over again, where he is free to float ideas without taking any responsibility for his performance in office or that of the economy on his watch. Only this time, unlike his brief, insignificant, and often, "missing-in-action" tenure in the Illinois Legislature and the U.S. Senate, there is a record of his performance this go around – a record and legacy of failure.

I get the impression that he is determined to make the presidential election a contest between two policy alternatives, deliberately omitting the issue of competence, or more so, his incompetence. He wants all the votes that his point of view will permit him to garner despite his obvious incompetence in implementing it. Obama seems to want to turn the election into a referendum on policy, almost as if it were an issue on the ballot rather than a president seeking reelection. While this preference is understandable, given his dismal record, the Republican Party (click for link) cannot let him get away with it. He’s like an incompetent employee hoping to save his job by advocating a broad-based shift in his corporation’s philosophy in the hopes that his bosses will ignore his own poor performance. Anyone with a pulse and a functioning brain could not have overlooked poor performance. I don’t believe that he can convince the majority of Americans the he deserves another term or that it would in any way benefit ‘everyday’, American People.


The key question Republican Candidates must pose to the president: "What are you planning to do in the next four years to get the economy moving that you have not tried and failed with during your first term, especially during that portion of the term when you had total control of Congress and still couldn’t fix the economy?"

Of course, the other part of Obama’s presidential election strategy will be a slash-and-burn approach to attacking his opponent. Using the cooperation of the "bought-and-paid-for" media, he will throw any accusation that comes to mind against his Republican Party opponent in the hope that enough sticks to help him win. But in this essentially negative approach to the campaign, he is laboring under the handicap that the aspiring Republican Candidates will have been thoroughly vetted during the primaries. Any negatives that exist will have been aired so extensively that they will pack little punch in the fall. In this respect, the primary contest is serving to inoculate the potential Republican Candidates by raising all the negatives and exhausting them before the fall presidential election even starts.

As for the rest of Mr. Obama’s strategy — it won’t work. Nobody is going to forget the current state of the economy or fail to remember how ineffective the stimulus program was at doing anything other than digging us deeper into self-destructive debt. The fact is that an incumbent president is up for reelection and there is more than a clash of philosophies at issue. There will be two men, and one of them, Barack Hussein Obama, is a demonstrated failure(click for video).

 I would suggest, in opposition to Obama and his socialist agenda, that Americans not accept the media maneuvers to decieve the public and their attempts to, in effect, select Mitt "Rmoney" as the Republican Nominee and pick a strong, conservative to lead our country out of the current mess and into a properous future; that would be Newt Gingrich (click for link).

Mitt Romney and his Bid to Become President


Moderate Mitt (click for link) Is it a fair label? Can Mitt convince the Republican Party(click for link) electorate that he is one of them? After some research, I’m not convinced.

 
As most of our readers will know, Romney challenged Teddy Kennedy in the Massachusetts U.S. Senate race in 1994 after changing his affiliation from being an Independent to being amongst the Republican Candidates in October 1993. This switch is the point in the timeline of his bid to become POTUS which becomes a bit prophetic as we look at the years hence.

Romney has stated time and again that he was "not a partisan Republican" but rather was a moderate with progressive views. Well, that’s a bit uncomfortable for most in the Republicans Party. Indeed, when I read it for the first time I wanted to be sick Seriously? And what is a "moderate with progressive views," anyway? Sounds a bit discombobulated and squishy to me.

In the general election, after spending a ton of money to win the GOP nomination, Mitt ran on a strong family image and moderate stands on social issues. I suppose it could be argued that he had to express moderate positions to beat ol’ Teddy. However, his words as he campaigned betray that argument. He even said at one point, "Look, I was an independent during the time of Reagan-Bush. I’m not trying to take us back to Reagan-Bush. Ultimately, this is a campaign about change." Oh, really? I’d sure like to return to those years, wouldn’t you? But, then I’m not a moderate with progressive views. He either believed what he said then OR he really didn’t believe it and was content to just say whatever it took to beat Kennedy. In either event, it should bother those of us trying to make up our minds in the 2012 republican presidential election process. If he believed what he said, there’s not a conservative around that should vote for him. If he was just saying what was necessary to win, he can’t be trusted to be straight with us.

Moreover, he repeatedly has spent much of his own fortune to outspend opponents. While I have no problem with any candidate spending his own money, in our Republic much can be said for the candidate who is able to raise money from the "folks" to run his campaign. It demonstrates support from the grassroots, as opposed to buying support in a presidential election process. I separate the two. Romney contributed over $6 million to his own campaign during the election against Kennedy, a state record at the time. He’ll do much the same thing in the 2012 republican presidential election contest.

Even while Governor of Massachusetts he demonstrated his moderate, progressive tendencies much of the time. Romney(click for link) supported raising various fees by more than $300 million, including those for driver’s licenses, marriage licenses, and gun licenses. He increased a special gasoline retailer fee by two cents per gallon. Anytime fees and taxes are raised they impose a hardship on those who can least afford them. Something progressives have no problem with.

Republican candidates
for POTUS have to do everything in their power to demonstrate leadership skills, strength of conviction, ability to raise money, support from grassroots voters, strength of message and its applicability in the world today, resourcefulness, capacity to respond instantaneously when challenged, and an distinctly American spirit. Mitt has failed on all those fronts in both the 2008 election and the 2012 presidential election. In this presidential election, there is one candidate who has demonstrated all of those traits and that’s Newt Gingrich(click for link). When the mainstream media had Newt’s candidacy DOA, Newt proved his resourcefulness and raised money, stayed on message, demonstrated leadership skills, spoke well of all the candidates, remained convicted that the country could do better, and responded instantaneously when challenged.

Mitt Romney is a Massachusetts Moderate with progressive views. Newt is a Reagan Conservative with a track record to prove it.

I wish you success in your quest to live your life on your terms.
