Please, we''re in this mess because of the current MBA from Harvard Business school. That is hardly a viable selling point after this disastrous administration.

I find it ironic that people are so concerned with Romney''s beliefs. If anyone cares to read what is written in the Bible...parting of the Red Sea, walking on water, a talking donkey, and a man swallowed by a whale...some pretty unusual events that test convential thinking.

I think Gov. Romney is very smart, received his B.A., with Highest Honors, from Brigham Young University in 1971. In 1975, he was awarded an MBA from Harvard Business School, where he was named a Baker Scholar, and a J.D., cumm laude, from Harvard Law School. He''s had an extrordinary career in both business and government. He is the only candidate that could even begin to turn around our economy and get rid of our trade deficit.

Gov. Romney is far and away the best candidate.

We need to rally around Mitt and carry him toward the nomination because he is the only one who in my eyes can win hillary, and bring America back on track.

Go Mitt!

So electing someone that promises to emulate Bush (and this goes for Hillary too) is going to bring the country back on track? I don''t think so.

The Presidential campaigns are in full-swing. Republicans have taken out round-the-clock ads promoting their candidates. Don''''t we already have that? It''''s called Fox News.

Oh, wah wah...Fox news is biased and wah wah...it''s not fair. We want more UNBIASED news from CBS, CNN, NBC, and ABC. For god sake...have some cheese with the whine...or better yet call 1-800-wah-whaa and complain. There is no such thing as UNBIASED news...can we just get passed all the complaining about where to go for unbiased news on anything politicial? The reason for that? Apparently YOU CAN''T HANDLE THE TRUTH!! So we all have to suffer.

Romney will still win Iowa for sure. I am confident of this because Iowa realizes that any vote for anyone other than Mitt Romney, is essentially a vote for Rudy, and a vote for Rudy is, in my eyes, not what this country needs. Iowa is smart, and they will choose the higher ground of Romney.

We can''t risk voting for huckabee who does not have anywhere near the funds, experience of turning things around, organization, or transformational leadership that Mitt posseses. We need to rally around Mitt and carry him toward the nomination because he is the only one who in my eyes can win hillary, and bring America back on track.

Go Mitt!

I think a third reason Huckabee''''''''s rising in the polls has more to do with the political climate. Hillary and Rudy are on the downswing, and Barack and Huckabee are on the upswing

People are starting to see a slimy component in both Rudy and Hillary .

I certainly do NOT see Hillary on any "Downswing"... none what so ever. EVERYONE knew Iowa was going to be difficult for her but after that the polling in all the other states show her with very large leads. The press is playing up Iowa to create some excitement... that''s what they sell but in reality the Democratic race is not close.

Romney is in a tail spin... Huckabee could have peaked a bit early... Watch for Edwards to close strong...

"perception" of being a tax raiser? Huckabee WAS/IS a tax raiser.

You and screenverify are going to have to come to grips with the fact that you are going to have to pay for the Iraq war. Freedom (even if you are getting it for someone else) isn''t free.
