If my name was "Mo" I would not have a story making fun of ANYONES NAME> Mr. Mo! At least we can say stuff like Mitt is a hit or Mitt has wit. What could we make from Mo....hum... Mo the ho or No more Mo! The latter sounds good to me.

Romney has had to endure more "negative campaigning" than any other GOP candidate (yep, true), and for far longer. The media doesn't talk as much about this negative campaigning as the attacks have typically been made behind closed doors to thousands of people, away from television cameras. Huckabee is primarily where he is at in the polls because many of a similar religious mind have been convinced by their religious leaders (in both direct and indirect manners) that Romney, a Mormon, has horns growing out of his head. Huck did not get where he is secondary to his own accomplishments.

Without Mitt, Huck would be nothing. Mitt on the other hand is a very different story.

When the issues of Economy, Defense/Foreign policy and Family are considered in aggregate, Romney is the obvious winner. He has proven in his life again and again by ACTIONS that he knows how to build strong teams with the best talent and the sharpest minds and to subsequently get the best RESULTS. He has proven in his personal life that he cherishes and strives to follow the core moral principles that so many conservatives hold so dear.

For more of the same... vote a career politician. Otherwise, vote Mitt.

It will be unfortunate if this extremely talented and intelligent son of America is pushed to the wayside due to bigotry. If so, in the end, those influenced by this bigotry will receive that which they want least cause Huck is in no way going to win a general election.

My vote is going to Mitt, he is clearly the best candidate for the job.

DOESN'T MATTER. EVEN AMERICANS ARE NOT STUPID ENOUGHT TO PUT ANOTHER EVIL REPUBLICAN IN THE WHITE HOUSE. (AT LEAST I HOPE NOT).

Let's put some focus on what is behind the name instead of how to pronounce it or spell it!

Willard Mitt Romney-
He was named "Willard" after hotel magnate J. Willard Marriott, his father's best friend. Yes! That would be one of the most well known hotel chains in America.
“Mitt“, comes from his father's cousin Milton, who played quarterback for the 1925-29 Chicago Bears.

Romney attended Brigham Young University, where he was the valedictorian, earning his Bachelor of Arts degree summa cum laude in 1971. In 1975, Romney graduated from a joint Juris Doctor/Master of Business Administration program coordinated between Harvard Law School and Harvard Business School. He graduated cum laude from the law school and was in the top five percent of his business school class.

He has been married to Ann Romney since 1969. He has attended the SAME church all of his life, pays his tithing, and rarely misses a Sunday service.

*Romney was a vice president of Bain & Company, Inc.
*He then founded a private equity investment firm called Bain Capital.
*After 14 years he was ASKED to return to Bain & Company, which was facing financial collapse. It only took one year for him to return the firm to profitability without layoffs or partner defections.
*Romney served as president and CEO of the 2002 Olympic Winter Games. The event was running $379 million short of its revenue benchmarks PRIOR TO ROMNEY.
The Games ended up clearing a profit of $100 million under ROMNEYS’ LEAD.

BY THE WAY- Romney contributed $1 million to the Olympics, and donated the $825,000 salary he earned as President and CEO to charity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*Romney was elected Governor of MA in 2002.
Romney faced a projected $3 billion deficit. Through a combination of spending cuts and lower taxes, and removal of tax loopholes, the State had a $700 million surplus by 2006. Romney's cut spending by $1.6 billion.

AND...now he is running for the highest office of the land.

SO CALL ME CRAZY…… BUT HE WAS NAMED AFTER TWO GREAT MEN AND HE HAS LIVED THE LIFE OF A GREAT AND HONORABLE MAN. Looks to me it’s not so bad to be named Willard or Mitt.

Mitt will be a spectacular president.

Huckster is far from being qualified for the office...as he demonstrated with his apology in the aftermath of the Pakistan assassination.

If you want a comedian for president, vote for the yukster (who could not even graduate from seminary)

If you want a qualified individual (two graduate degrees with honors from Harvard? Success at everything that he has ever done? And NOT on judicialwatch.org 's top ten list of most corrupt politicians, like Mr. Huckabee is).

Unlike the Huckster, Mitt has not personally attacked his opponenents. Mitt has merely pointed out the fact that the Huckabilly pardoned a dozen convicted murderers, (and over 1000 other convicts without any dna evidence or some other good reason to let them roam the shopping malls freely) and many, many other liberal big government items.

Huck is nothing more than an early-morning televangelist, which is why he and the infomercial king chuck norris get along so well, both of them love selling to the late night crowd.

Huck will be a gift to the Democrats. His corruption will not play well nationally...dumond!?!?! a rapist who got out of jail only to murder a woman? WOW!

Iowa, stop the insanity.

take the black out of your hair, Mitt. You look much more sincere with brown hair and grey sideburns.
