While he has tried to talk a good game on guns and appear more moderate on abortion and homosexuality, he spent his time as mayor of New York City taking very public positions that were very much against what Republicans believe. People can criticize statements and positions that Mitt Romney has taken on some of these issues, but Mitt Romney never made an effort to get in front of every camera and every parade to lead the attacks on the Second Amendment or the conservative positions on these other issues. He came across as arrogant during the campaign. Folks in NYC may like that style, but he reminded many of us why we'd never want to live in New York City. He'd be foolish to run again. <br /><br />Mitch Daniels has received a great deal of criticism over suggesting a truce on social issues while we get people back to work, but many small government conservatives like the idea of a smaller, less intrusive government. That comment won't doom his candidacy. He doesn't seem to have as much charisma as many candidates do, but he'd be worth having in the primary. He could make a good VP pick for any number of nominees.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571954475140446599.post-18226642102687095152011-01-07T15:18:59.811-05:002011-01-07T15:18:59.811-05:00I think Rudy running would hurt Romney and Palin a...I think Rudy running would hurt Romney and Palin about equally.

It devoures everything in it's path. Frantic, the towns people try to stop it with everything they have. Nothing works until they discover the substance can't stand cold. When it's exposed to cold, it retreated. When the citizens were finally able to freeze the mass, they dropped it in the Antarctic, never really dead, just frozen.<br /><br />Rudy reminds me of The Blob. In 2008, he was the leader of the pack, devouring polls. Until he went to Iowa and was given the cold shoulder. So he retreated to New Hampshire. That climate, locally and politicaly also proved to frigid for him, so he shrunk back to the warmth of Florida. Despite the brilliant sunshine, Rudy was frozen out. <br /><br />Now sitting dormant in the political frozen tundra, he's looking to return? Highly doubtful.Doug NYC GOPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00457483710583021449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571954475140446599.post-79514131901370128092011-01-07T13:18:05.013-05:002011-01-07T13:18:05.013-05:00Romney and the establishment are TOAST.

However, if they do run, ironically it could help Mr. Romney. If Conservatives get scared enough of them (or one of them,) they could potentially hold there nose and at least quietly vote for Mr. Romney.
