What a hypocrite Mitt Romney is, he says that the three that didn't go to Iowa knew they would lose...and he is skipping the Townhall.com Texas Straw poll over labor day weekend, is this because he thinks he can't win? He needs to answer why he is a hypocrite?

This is such a joke. It's a straw vote and people are paid to show up! Hello! Check out how many millions Romney put into this meaningless event. Why can't the media do it's job? This guy bought a win in a meaningless straw poll. Heven help us if this flip-flopping Neo-con gets into office.

Romney is a winner. He does not take on any challenge expecting to lose. He reversed the direction of the 2002 Winter Olympics and turned it into an organizational masterpiece - successful by any measure! America needs that kind of leadership.

This guy's scary. First he's for abortion then against, for gay rights then against, then wins a straw poll in the heart of the Bible belt, known for expulsion of the "cult" Mormon's in the mid 1800's. The wife seems to be no better, donating to Planned Parenthood, but can't remember, and has changed her views now as well as Mitt. Seems like their views and principles change according to whatever group they're seeking to placate at the time.

So what if he spent x amount of money at the straw poll? He raised that much by his leadership and character. I was in Utah for the 2002 Winter Olympics, and I was here in Iowa during the straw poll. I've seen what he can do and what he says. With Romney's strength and values, this nation can be rich, powerful, and respected in the world again.

Mitt Romney has been consistently pro-life in his actions and personal belief. I trust his change in political view based on his actions and his word. Conservatives should recognize the right of a state to decide its laws. Instead of name-calling, skeptics should push him on what he would do if Roe v Wade is overturned and states vote to have liberal abortion laws. We would then learn when his respect for state laws takes precedence over his personal moral and political views. We also need to see if we can develop deterrents in the law other than the threat of jail.

Mitt is the quintessential "plastic politician" - the kind who is utterly devoid of originality and panders to anyone who will listen. At the Iowa Debate (read, "Serial Press Conference"), Romney had a chance to refute Brownback's points, but couldn't. He's skipping the so-called "YouTube debate" because he dislikes the format. I might dislike it to if I were him and I had to face innovative, hard questions from "We the People" rather than the same questions from the Brunch with the Living Dead crowd.

Slick Mitt will never get my vote! NO ONE for SHAMNESTY will. And have no doubt, he IS for SHAMNESTY. He flip-flopped on the issue AFTER the debates started. Anyone willing to sell the U.S. down the river to Mexico, doesn't deserve to be president.
