Most Huckabee people have good hearts so there's hope that their goodness will transform those who are poisoned with prejudice into reason and enlightenment. Romney supporters see "the big, AMERICAN picture" - beyond gender, social status, skin color, or religion. The higher a barrel of oil costs, the better the "blind" can see Mitt. Even bigots have to buy gasoline. Thanks, Frozone for the "heads up" on Mitt's first post on PAC. Four new grandchildren this year - congrats to all the Romneys on their new little angels. What a Kodak moment on the convention podium if he's named VP! Emily, good comments.

Thanks, Frozone for the “heads up” on Mitt’s first post on PAC. Four new grandchildren this year - congrats to all the Romneys on their new little angels. What a Kodak moment on the convention podium if he’s named VP!

They are certainly profound people and you are right, too bad they are not the nominated family. It is what it is though and I shall TRY to be supportive. I just heard Kevin Madden talking on Foxnews about this weekend's events. As always, tried to keep a low profile.... I read that and what an awesome read it was.

My fervent belief in regards to Huckabee supporters (they're reachable, liberals aren't) is to be as gracious as possible, whether deserved or not. Why? Feelings. He's their guy, the one that they see themselves in, etc. One can't make them feel good about Mitt if one is insulting them as an insult against Huck, in their eyes, is an insult against them. I truly believe further that many of the secular Republicans on the internet have done profound damage to the party by going overboard in mocking Huckabee and his supporters. Huckabee has some serious flaws, but most of his supporters are very good people. One may not be able to reach a hardcore argumentative Huck supporter, but there maybe several reading, listening to the debate and could be persuaded by the magnamity shown. In fact, the more hostile the other is, the more inspiring and appealing one's graciousness and thus, argument. John and KKSM,

Most of these people seem to have narrowly escaped being lunatics. I don't see any intellect, it's all emotion. And the emotions on display are hatred and jealousy. Sad. KKSM,

Man o Man, did I have alot to say back at them... People just throw out things out of hate and vitriol and don't even ever know what they are talking about.

So at the least it's a nice vetting process for conservative candidates. These guys are the good ones and need our help more than ever this year. When I looked earlier, there were five and all were running for the U.S. House and I donated to each of them *something*; I hope to donate to all. All at that time were 100% pro-life according to the NRLC. I emailed to ask if all his pac's candidates would be and am looking forward to the response. Also, a couple made strong border/ anti- illegal immigration stands front and center in their campaigns. These candidates are very conservative. Lizzy,

First the facts:

Mitt Romney’s PAC is called Free and Strong America
