ROMNEY... OBAMA LITE'

Some of the conservative media understands that a nomination for Romney may be a sure win for Obama. Romney is a re-tread he couldn't make in Mass. when he ran for Senator and he didn't  cut the mustard in the last presidential election.

The left (most) leaning media understands that Romney is a lightweight when it comes to getting elected. That's the reason they are "turning over every rock" to destroy a candidate that has a record of creating jobs and economic growth in his state. Believes in smaller government, lower taxes, states rights, the second amendment  and the American people. be ###

Excerpt: Second, the establishment GOP is not aligned with the philosophy of the Tea Party. They like the philosophy of a Democrat-lite: more efficient, effective government, but not necessarily a smaller one. This is the philosophy of Mitt Romney, who rips Rick Perry for stating that Social Security is a Ponzi scheme (which it is), who established a health care mandate in the state of Massachusetts, who supports Obama's continued nationalization of education, whose tax cutting talk is weak tea at best.Even more than the Democrat-lite philosophy, establishment Republicans like winning. Was Ronald Reagan running in these primaries, the establishment GOP would attempt to dump him for Romney, the same way they tried to dump Reagan for George H.W. Bush in 1980.The problem, of course, is that the establishment GOP philosophy results not in victory but in tremendous losses. When conservatism is politically inconvenient, it sometimes wins (see Reagan) and it sometimes loses (see Goldwater). But when conservatism embraces the politics of convenience, it always loses.
 If the establishment GOP succeeds in nominating Mitt Romney, it will be able to add another black mark to its long record of failure — and, even worse, it will have co-opted the greatest Constitutionalist movement in a century for its own pathetic purposes.

Rick Perry is the challenger who needs to be supported by the Republican base, he has the strongest record of job creation since 09', 40% of all jobs were created in his state. His state has far out performed the rest of America according to all statics. He  cut general revenue spending. He signed historic tax cuts and some of the strongest lawsuit reforms in the nation. These and cutting red tape has created economic growth which is the basic successful recipe for putting Americans back to work.

Romney is working  to head off  his strongest challenger  Gov. Rick Perry of Texas, who

has a deep-pocketed network of Republican donors of his own.

Mr. Perry’s campaign announced this week that he had raised more than $17 million in 49 days from Aug.13 and Sept.30 from more than 22,000 contributors after he entered the race. A figure that aides to Mr. Romney have said he is unlikely to match. And Mr. Perry, unlike other Republican rivals to Mr. Romney, shows every sign of being able to raise enough money to finance a long primary campaign. Perry has the cojones to take it to Obama in a face to teleprompter matchup. be ###
