I want Romney!

I'll say it now...I want Gov. Mitt Romney to be Sen John McCain's running for this election. I believe if he actually chooses an Independent as in Lieberman, than we will take two giant steps back with this party. He needs to look at the conservative wing of this party and more importantly, the Pro-Life crowd. I am a strong Pro-life advocate and believe that any other choice than a Pro-life running mate is calling for disaster.

This is a short note only to give my support for Gov. Mitt Romney for VP. He is a very articulate man and understand the bells and whistles of governing. If McCain does not chose Romney, my two other choices are Sec. of State Condi Rice and LA. Gov. , Bobby Jindal. Conservative, experience and able to get the crowds going is key here. We must stop the Obamamania from taking over the middle votes. We must remain America the Beautiful and Home of the Brave. We will move away from our freedom if Obama is elected by securing more debt to pay for useless programs. Not too mention, he is not a military person, thus putting our national security at risk. Remember the downsizing that Clinton did in the 1990's? It will be far worse if Obama is elected.

God Bless America! God Bless our soldiers, sailors, airmen and marine who fight for our freedom everyday in honor of our great country.

Hatred: That's what is wrong with politics these days!

I truly enjoy the American political scene. I love the debates of ideas that could move our nation forward. I love the historical aspect of elections as well as the issues that are relevant at the time. With all these positives, there bounds to be negatives that bridges the gap of Americans. The negative here is the vast amounts of energy put towards hatred of political parties and political figures. You go to any college campus and the negativity and outright hatred towards one particular person is astounding. That person of course is President George W. Bush. Comments by many professors or other public figures is sickening. Last year Michelle Malkin talked about one person in particular, Betty Williams and other peaceniks and their hatred toward our nations leader. When you get Hollywood actors and actresses spilling out the hatred towards one person, it get sickening.

The point here is politics can become great again but it needs effort from both sides of the aisle. It doesn't mean that we have to join forces and become one party. Frankly that would be the worst thing to happen. What we need is to understand the differences in the parties but use less hatred. I had a conversation with a really good friend of mine that happens to be a public figure in the Maine Democratic Party in and we talked about that very issue. She had said that it might be better if the parties moved closer together. I explained that America needs to see the differences in policies. Our policies are different but the message is not as clear. It the differences that helped us become a great country. There were differences in religion, ownership of property and beliefs if government control. After that, she agreed that showing the differences is probably better. Both parties have essentially become watered down with hatred and at times they look too much alike. It's time is stops to move us forward. Remember President Bush and other political figures are human and make tough decisions for the betterment of this great nation. I hope we can all remember that when President Bush leaves office.

I guess this short little message is done. Just remember the hatred you may spill out towards another may comeback at you someday. Is it deserving at that point?

God Bless America!
