Florida, Romney Can Beat Hillary
Posted by Terrie Soberg under: Presidential Election 2008 .
I keep hearing people say that even though they don’t really like McCain, they are going to vote for him because the polls say he is the only one who can beat Hillary. A woman talking to Rush just said that everyone in her family is probably going to vote for McCain even though they dislike him. To them, the important thing is to beat Hillary. Rush reminded her that a few months ago the polls were saying that the only one who could beat Hillary was Giuliani. Polls change constantly. Romney has just moved into first place nationally so with a Florida victory, the polls will start to show that he can beat Hillary. Rush said that he would rather have a democrat in office to get the blame for everything and then have us take back the white house afterwards rather than move the Republican party left by supporting a democrat in sheep’s clothing.
Florida, please stand up against a man who has shown himself to be completely dishonest and manipulative. Stand up for values. Mitt is not a flip-flopper. He flipped on abortion after studying the issue but he never flopped and he won’t. Good luck tomorrow. Conservative Americans are praying you will do the right thing.

I just snagged this from a comment portion of an article. I thought it was great:
“Sure, if the national election were held today, absolutely Clinton would beat Romney. He simply doesn’t have the name recognition. But when he DOES become the nominee, and gain’s the national spotlight you will see those number change dramatically as people take measure of the man, his accomplishments his moral fabric. Family-Man”

Matt has it right in a comment below. There is a real danger of voter fraud in Florida. This is something I have followed to and there is a lot of hard evidence and court cases proving this happens. Everyone supporting Ron Paul knows that the vote was stolen from Mitt in New Hampshire. They were tied all day and suddenly at the end McCain shot up. Hillary’s theft of the election was even more dramatic. There are groups that have tried to take this to court but they have been getting railroaded. I could go on about all the evidence but will just give three quick examples. A lot of small towns have reported that they have people who voted for Ron or Mitt but the results showed no votes for either. Also, the group that looked at the boxes with the votes found slits in the side. They were told if the top was sealed and that is all that counts and they should ignore the slits. Finally, paypal froze the account of the group who paid to protest the vote count. They did this at the last minute before the deadline so nothing could be done. I have to add one more. A woman who checks into voter fraud for her living checked the voting machines in N.H. a week before the election and said a moderate hacker could break in and change things in ten minutes. I am very worried about tomorrow’s election.

Jesse, I did a little surfing on the subject. You are right. Ron Paul followers are up in arms about voter fraud. The sad thing is alot of people think anything his followers believe is a conspiracy theory and crazy. That makes me sad because there is so much history of this. Even the Kennedy/Nixon race had voter fraud but Nixon decided to drop it. There is alot more info out there besides Ron Paul people though. I pulled a few paragraphs from an article about the New Hampshire problem:
Attempts to delay the New Hampshire Republican recount are provoking some to suspect state officials are engaging in chicanery in a ploy to scupper the entire process and derail the recount, ensuring it goes the same way as its Democratic equivalent did last week.
Republican candidate Albert Howard, who has been the driving force behind the recount, was told by officials that the recount would be suspended for two days during Tuesday and Wednesday of this week.
No justification has been offered for suspending the recount, which was already delayed for two weeks after the initial primary took place.
In a letter, Howard slammed New Hampshire Secretary of State Bill Gardner and objected to any delay in the recount.
“The nation is in the early stages of the 2008 Presidential electoral process. The performance of the machines used in New Hampshire is of vital importance. The sooner the results are known and available to the People and to other units of government charged with conducting Primaries and General Elections, the better for the nation,” writes Howard.
According to Bev Harris, following Howard’s complaint there will now be no recess in the recount and it will continue as normal, but this has not been confirmed by state officials.
The attempt to hold up the recount by state officials and their apparent reversal when it was challenged is causing many to view the whole process with increasing suspicion.
“There’s no question the office of the Secretary of State does not want the light shined on their ability to conduct fair and impartial elections. However, what they’ve done is patently un-American and they should be ashamed of themselves,” writes Devvy Kidd, who has been tracking the issue.

More of us Thompson Fans going for Romney. I hope it is in time to help with Florida. Romney has to beat McCain there.
WASHINGTON — Former Indiana Rep. David McIntosh, who had been an advisor to Fred Thompson’s presidential campaign, is now backing Mitt Romney for the GOP nomination.
David McIntosh
- Grew up in Kendallville
- White House special assistant domestic affairs 1987-88
- Special assistant to Vice President Dan Quayle 1989-9
- Three termis in Congress from Indiana’s 2nd District, 1994-2000
- Republican Party nominee for Indiana governor, 2000.
McIntosh said Romney “has the vision to bring true conservative change to Washington and strengthen our economy.”
McIntosh had been volunteering with Thompson’s campaign, helping pull together experts and proposals on various domestic policy issues. Thompson withdrew from the race last week after failing to catch fire with GOP voters.
The Romney campaign said McIntosh will be an advisor on Constitiutional and judicial issues.
“I am convinced that Governor Romney will appoint judges who will exercise judicial restraint, respect the rule of law and appreciate the Constitution as written,” McIntosh said in a statement.
McIntosh is a founder of the Federalist Society, a conservative legal group.

Looks like you are all getting pretty intense about Florida. It is a crucial moment in history. McIntosh is a good addition. Thanks for posting this.

This is not a well known poll. However it was the closest in American in predicting the outcome of the Democratic primary in South Carolina.

By the way, the poll I just referenced puts Romney up by 7.
