A Capitalist Manifesto
Here is a brief excerpt from an article in the Monday, Oct. 13, 2008 edition of the Wall Street Journal print edition. It is so ironic to see the same, not similar, but the same things that you have written about on Committed to Romney on the pages of the Journal. If you have not read the article, please take a few minutes to check it out.

These days, it seem difficult to defend the efficacy, let alone the morality, of an economic approach to human interaction that is now blamed for having put the entire global economy at risk. But that is exactly what we need—-most importantly, from America’s next leader.
Sometimes it takes an outsider to help us gain perspective. Deep within the condemning speeches delivered by Mr. Sarkozy, ( President of France ) both in New York and Toulon, are the grains of a new approach to capitalism that should give Americans reason to hope, not only for economic salvation but for a sense of redemption on a deeper level. France’s President held out the possibility that all is not lost, that we can fix what is broken. “”The financial crisis is not the crisis if capitalism,” according to Mr. Sarkozy. “It is the crisis of a system that has distanced itself from the most fundamental values of capitalism, which betrayed the spirit of capitalism.”

It’s nice to know the French are with us.

McCain is missing his chance to act conservatively

Palin sure got the memo on being a politican with her hand out, so others can get their hand up.
I know, it’s from the kos. But… if it’s even remotely true, Ted Stevens should not be hanging alone.

I want to apologize to my fellow Romneyites , I commited a conservative felony , I turned my back to all that I believe and now have to live with myself for the rest of my life and wonder if I did the right thing………when it came time to vote ( absent-tee ) I could not see myself allowing Obama to win Florida possibly because of me , so I did the unthinkable and voted for McCain …………
Forgive me ?

Evelio,
You voted “YES!” to the unborn, “YES!” to putting children with special needs first in line, “YES!” to the end of ear-marked pork-barrel spending, “YES!” to victory in Iraq and Afghanistan, “YES!” to illegal immigration reform, “YES!” to securing our borders, “YES!” to developing alternative energy sources, “YES!” to drill, baby, drill now, and “YES!” to American ingenuity and the AMERICAN way.
Mitt Romney would be proud.

Evelio-
You are in a very crucial swing state and I feel you made the best choice possible given your political convictions. Mitt Romney would have done the same thing.

Mitt will be so strong going into the primaries in 2012, that it won’t even resemble the 2007-2008 contest.
Name recognition off the charts, experienced campaign volunteers in place, 4 years of God knows what kind of leadership coming out of Washington and a country fed up with tax and spend, economic illiterates from both parties.
Go Mitt!
