Strong win in Michigan. True and proven leadership. A problem solver. There might be a few hiccups along the way as some States who favor one candidate or another for some reason ignore reality, but I can't fathom the Republican party selecting anyone but Mitt.
Onward, ever onward! KLR
I like the fact that Romney has more delegates now than McCain, Huckabee, and Giuliani COMBINED!
I really like McCain's straight-talk and honesty....not.

I read that Romney is getting a lot of support form evangelical voters. I found that curious. I would have thought staunch christians would be against a mormon candidate, but the numbers show differently.
Just thought it was interesting.
What did they say about each other?
Huckabee on Romney:
'dishonest'
'Mormons teach that Satan and Jesus are brothers?'
'Mitt is rich, I'm poor'
'money isn't everything'
'will never be negative'
McCain on Romney:
'dishonest'
'hypocrite'
'phony'
'waffler'
'pig'
'flip-flopper'
'liar'
'won't be negative'
Romney on McCain and Huckabee:
'why attack me personally'
'adds of contrast'
My conclusion: Huckabee and McCain are the worst liars, flip-floppers and hypoctites. So much for this kind of Christian and the old man with a hot temper and foul mouth.
Be sure and see my update on all of this in:

This will bring patriotic tears to your eye - a grade school/high school musical production of "The Battle Hymn Of The Republic"

Very touching.
That's actually an arrangement that was from the Mormon Tabernacle Choir many years ago, and a classic for them as well.
