After Romney’s Performance in Interview with Hannity, I Like Him Much More

November 22, 2011 Featured, Publisher's Blog 11 Comments

Is THIS “The Ticket”?

We came out with our picks for the Republican Nomination on November 4, and a lot has happened since then.  While I do not hold the allegations of “sexual harassment” as even possible for Herman Cain, his string of gaffes just brought me back to reality.  The “Taliban” in Libya was really the last straw to me.  It showed me he has not real understanding of the Middle East, and cannot possibly be ready in time for a Fall campaign against Barack Obama.

I was more impressed lately with Mitt Romney.  My reasons for discounting him before was that he has held many different positions on many different issues.  I have not trusted his conservative credentials. To say he was a “flip-flopper” seemed to be an understatement.  I have to give it to him following his interview on Hannity’s Fox News show.  Clearly he has a grasp of every major issue.

I particularly liked how he was able to frame almost every issue back to Obama. He had one great answer where he highlighted all of the failures of the Obama administration in a matter of a minute or two.  I could see him looking over at Obama in a debate and spitting some of that save verbiage out and seeing where our current “Commander-In-Chief” runs with it. More than likely he would run off stage in shame, and start looking for a home to move into in the suburbs of Chicago starting on January 20, 2013, just hours after being put in the ejection seat of history.  Like Jimmy Carter was.

I am now between Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney on the GOP Nomination.  I think Mitt may be more likely to win.  I think the attacks on Newt will likely pick up, and then we will see what he is made of.  I tuned into a few minutes of MSNBC yesterday to hear the fully repudiated take on Newt Gingrich serving divorce papers bedside with a cancer-stricken wife.  It was said to be accurate, no matter what what Gingrich says now.  ’Unnamed sources’ told the reporter, and he stuck by those sources.  I am not sure which of Matthews ‘unbiased’ minions it was, but the partly line was held to.  Of course that is the Democrat Party Line.

So Newt is under attack. Then I see this on NPR and other places about Romney:

NPR: Romney’s Gubernatorial Aides Bought Their Gov’t Hard Drives, Raising Eyebrows (See here if you must)

My take: Smart thinking for Romney and his team.

They KNOW that the cut-throat world of politics favorite thing to do is to search hard drives and emails.  Taking those out of circulation is great. It kills the left’s chance to launch a “search and destroy” mission.

I always take and destroy the hard drive in any computer I put aside.  Even an old laptop.  If I cannot satisfactorly wipe it clean, I hammer it clean.  What Romney and his crew did was logical.  Considering that the ultra liberal Deval Patrick assumed the Office of Governor for Massachusetts in 2007, why would he not wipe it all clean?

My current picks: NEWT & MITT.  One will likely get it.

    IMO, the Republican Party has decided that Mitt is the one to beat Barry and he will be the nominee. This time next year we will be saying “President-Elect” Romney. I didn’t see the interview, but everytime I see him being interviewed, he comes across as clear headed and calm. Which is what we need after Barry’s constant temper tantrums when he doesn’t get his way. Unfortunately, Newt’s past baggage will come back to haunt him. The left will not let that get away. Herman Cain’s lack of experience in politics has come back to bite him in the behind and Perry, well seems to be an idiot.
    Not Ron Paul though, he scares me.
    Just my thoughts.

    While it is only ‘mildly comforting’ – Romney has finally learned all of the right things to say (except that little issue with Romneycare). But he swears there is a difference. Maybe it will be pres elect newt. I am okay with romney.

    Four more years of obama is hell on earth. We cannot have that.

    Also, I have been reading some scary things on some of the conservative sites. If Romney is the nom, people are just going to stay at home and not vote. That would be the worst thing. No vote is a vote for Barry.
    Nobama needs to go, sooner rather than later.

    They better not stay home. We need an exciting VP, too. Just like Sarah took a totally failing campaign and almost saved it, a great VP could turn it around.

    Newt vs. Joe “better than you” Biden in a VP debate! Even the SNL writers on their very best day couldn’t top that one!

  • JDK

    you mean conservative sites like this? ha.
    Romney will get the nomination, possibly newt as his running mate. But only if Romney doesn’t mind carrying all that baggage along with him.

    on another note, did anyone else squirm at the beginning of the debate when santorum completely made all Muslims out to be terrorists? the look on ron pauls face was classic when santorum made those racist remarks!

      No not sites like this one. Although I am sure there are some posters here that feel that way. I have seen comments about staying home on the Free Republic, American Thinker, ect.

    Great interview!! Romney is an idol not only political leader. I truly impressed to watch that interview live season. Thanks!

    No, not sites like this one, although I am sure there are some people here who feel that way. Sites like American Thinker, Free Republic ect.

  • whosrunningmate

    Personally I’m also concerned and curious about who the candidates have in mind for their running mates and those they refuse to partner with. A ticket with both Romney and Gingrich would be on excellent footing both financially as well as politically. The trick will be overcoming the inevitable race card now that Cain has bowed out.

  • JDK

    race will only be an issue if the “crazies” on either side make it an issue. and Romney/Gingrich will work, but not the other way around. I still say someone needs to emerge from the shadows and show us what a real Republican candidate looks like.
