How not to talk about Mitt Romney or Just Vote for a Conservative!

Mitt Romney, isn't he special. Who else can you expect to give you two candidates for the price of one liberal. He has taken on every position and then taken the opposition position. So, wait around long enough and you'll find him taking another position.

So let's not rip on Mitt just because he's indecisive or because he's trying to be a liberal while trying to be a moderate, while trying to be a conservative. After all, it's so hard to be something to everyone. We know that the establishment sees him as the best chance to beating the President. And because of that we should all just give in and say he's our guy.

But in reality, what's the comparison. Now, I don't mean between Mitt and say Gingrich, or Bachman, Santorum or any other candidate. What's the comparison between Mitt and the President. For that matter what's the comparison between the President and ANY of the Republican Candidates.

That's the Question we should really be answering. That's right - not asking but ANSWERING! We don't need to find someone who is close aligned in an ideological fashion with the President, it's our job in the primary to find someone who will offer us an opposing view, an alternative to the current method of doing business. That's called CHOICE - as I am sure many of my liberal friends would define it.

It's okay to pick a CONSERVATIVE candidate who believes in the exact opposite of the President - because that opposing viewpoint can be challenged - not just by the President but all those who wish to question it. So here are some of the rules - perhaps - that you can use to find your pick from the Republican Field. And please notice which is last.

1. Who is the furthest opposite from the President's Ideological base and philosophy?
2. Who can DEFEND their position the best, without the hesitations, the hiccups of being on the spot - the smoothest communicators of fact from fiction and the best orator of your choice?
3. Who can identify the weaknesses of the President's position (not just ideologically, but who can bring home the FAILURES of the Administration)?
4. Who will be able to bring in MORE Conservatives into the Congress and build the Conservative movement - now - not later?
5. Who is the most electable?

We want a candidate who is not only going to save our country. That man or woman will NOT be the same as our President ideologically. That person has to be the opposite. Answer these questions truthfully and not with the idea of who you like, but who you would choose.
