1 You forgot Newt Gingrich. Seriously, though, I think that there is a void now that Allen is struggling so much with his re-election bid. I am impressed with Romney, although I'm not totally comfortable with his shift on abortion from somewhat pro-choice to a firmly pro-life position. I wrote a previous post on that hereIt does seem that the shift is politically motivated, but I am inclined to believe that his view is genuine. My ideological ideal is someone like Gingrich, rather than McCain, but I don't think Newt can win. So Romney would probably be my second choice if I had to pick from the current field of candidates. Sorry I got a little long-winded there.

2 Sorry for the double post there. I didn't realize that these comments can't include links, so if you want to look at that post, let me know and I'll send you the link to it.

3 Tancredo. All the way!! Between these two though...I don't know who is worse. I really don't know.

4 I can't see myself voting for either one. But in NC, I won't have any choice because the state won't allow anyone else on the ballot.

5 ANd Lisa, sure, send along the link!
