Come join us for a slice of Americana with a helping of conservative politics on the side. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed"

Well it goes to show that the conservatives are pretty divided over their POTUS candidate choices. After Paul Weyrich went to the Romney camp, Pat Robertson jumped onto Rudy's and Sam Brownback came out for McCain. Matt Lewis takes a look at how this may effect the race to February and the early states. McCain has made somewhat of a comeback since the Shamnesty debacle earlier this summer by acknowledging he was wrong to push a comprehensive bill before enforcement first but he has no money. Mitt has not shown any signs of slipping in Iowa and has strengthened his lead in New Hampshire and some polls show him now leading in So. Carolina and polling is a statistical deadheat in Florida and has by far the best run organization nationwide. Rudy still maintains his national polling lead but his position in the early states is not near as strong. Fred keeps slipping from his early strong numbers with his lackadaisacle campaign and gaffes on abortion and gay marriage, not to mention his unorganized constantly shifting staff. It is a wide open race with a great slate of candidates, may the best man win.
Perhaps this is the way it should be with no pre-ordained candidate. That way there is a real choice in the primaries.
ReplyDeleteI agree Shoprat, with it this competitive, the man with the best ideas, organization and message machine and ultimately the strongest candidate will get the nod. This is by far the most interesting campaign since '92.
