    ALL Sunday morning on Fox.
    Republicans fail to support Romney.
    4 names keep showing up.
    1 Jeb Bush
    2. Some guy from Indiana
    3. The 2 year gov. of NJ. who already endorsed ROMNEY.
    4. Paul Ryan ?

    and Palin. which makes 5.

    Why does FOX keep telling conservatives that Romney cannot win ?
    The CNN delegate score board says other wise.

    They ( FOX ) make the case there is no reason for any of the other 3 to drop out.. even though it has been all along the only reason was to show Romney couldn't win. They themselves can never win..but by having 22 debates they can attack Romney on all fronts .

    These other CHICKEN POO so called conservative leaders.
    How many debates were they willing to endure..how many FACE the press without direct questioning of their ideas did they go through.

    How much WORK did they put in..shaking hands.. standing in the rain..doing town halls and meet and greets ??

    How many campaign speeches did they give with multiple chances for a Gaff or mis statement of policy ?
    Did these so called OTHER conservative leaders travel away from Their SAFE ZONE to see if they had any national support?

    Palin sort of endorsed NEWT..her husband did ..and THAT was BIG news at the time..how come she never left ALASKA to work for him ?

    CHRISTIE of NJ is on the trail when possible for Romney..

    Jeb Bush ? A huge reach to say he has any national support..Many wont vote for another big spending Republican..How much do your eally know of HIM..not his family..but HIM ?

    Daniels of Indiana ? Really ? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitch_Daniels

    Previously, he was the Director of the U.S. Office of Management and Budget under George W. Bush. He was formerly Senior Vice President of Eli Lilly and Company, Indiana's largest corporation, where he was in charge of the corporation's business strategy. He is cited as a rising star in the Republican Party, and was widely speculated[1][2][3] to be a candidate for President of the United States in 2012 before choosing not to run.[4]

    During his tenure as head of the Office of Management and Budget, from 2001 to 2003, the federal budget went from an annual surplus of $236 billion to a deficit of $400 billion, and Daniels's projection of a return to surplus by 2005 proved to be inaccurate.[5]

    During his first year in office as Governor, he proposed a number of controversial plans to balance the state's $24 billion budget through tax increases, budget cuts, and privatization plans.
    His second term saw a large drop in state revenues, leading to major spending cuts to maintain a balanced budget.

    In 1970, while an undergraduate student at Princeton, he and two roommates were arrested for possession of marijuana, LSD, and illicit prescription drugs.[14] He spent two nights in jail.[15] In a plea bargain, he pled guilty to "maintaining a common nuisance" and was fined $350.[14] Daniels told The Daily Princetonian in 2011 that "justice was served,"[16] and has disclosed the arrest on job applications, and spoke about the incident in columns in The Indianapolis Star[17] and The Washington Post.[18]

    On March 4, 2009, Daniels signed into law a bill which allowed the state to mandate the use of syngas through coal gasification technology.[65] Developers of Leucadia National proposed a $2.6 billion syngas plant in Rockport, Indiana. Under the terms of the deal endorsed by Daniels, the state of Indiana would buy syngas under a 30-year contract and then mandate that utilities within the state purchase and sell the gas to their customers.[66] Gas from the plant would make up about 17 percent of the state's supply. The deal received criticism due to government intrusion in the energy markets, and for forcing consumers to sign up for risky long-term gas purchases at prices substantially higher than market prices.[67][68] Questions were also raised due to Leucadia National hiring Mark Lubbers to promote the deal. Lubbers is a former aide and close friend of Daniels.[69]

    End For now..So we have many good guys but no perfect guys..

    Before you VOTE NO FOR ROMNEY ON MANDATES..reread that last paragraph about Daniels.

    Before you convict Romney on DOG abuse..Daniels was convicted of illegal drug possession.
    Before you say Romney raised taxes...( he increased fees and closed loop holes ) Daniels actually did raise taxes.

    Daniels worked as a Budget manager that FAILED MISERABLY UNDER BUSH..while a Romney led budget NEVER HAS.

    You might consider this garbage before presenting someone who fights against ABORTION and unions. There is MORE to every candidate than what they show.

    ONLY by VETTING them will that come out.

    To simply say No at convention time and select one of these 5.. has done all the states that came before a great dis service as well as thrown those voters under the bus. It cheapens the entire system and turns it into a popularity SURVIVOR ISLAND election...except these players never had to be on the island the entire time..they just showed up and won the last day.

    Then get beat by Democrats in November.
    Anybody but Obama MUST be Proved..not just talked about.
    We can all do that.

    There would be a rift in the Democratic Party too if they weren't afraid of being called racists if they put someone up against Obummer. This is the media creating news...again.
