With 1144 delegates needed to lock up the Republican Nomination to run against Barack Obama this November, former Governor Mitt Romney has 658, former Senator Rick Santorum has 281, with Newt at 135 and Ron Paul at 51.
There have been approximately fourteen national polls, if you give polls any credence, since the beginning of March 2012,....from Gallup, CNN, McClatchy, Ramussen, Fox News, etc. Romney came out ahead in 13 of these polls by margins ranging from 4 to 13 points, while Santorum was tops in one poll by a margin of 4 percent.
Santorum's slight to moderate slide since Feb and Romney's upswing in the same time period, combined with the curent delegate count would lead one to believe that in the interests of getting ready for the bigger and far more importance contest with Brack Obama, that Santorum, as well as Gingrich and Paul would concede, suspending their campaigns for the greater good. Yet attacks on Romney continue, mostly from Santorum, this is NOT in the best interest of the Republican party nor this Country.
I get it that Santorum is the more conservative candidate. He is largely more experienced in foreign policy and is certainly more conservative on the family values and morals - which incidentally does not make him more so that Romney, it's just that these issues are more important to Santorum. In fact, this is also Santorum's weakness as the Liberals deceive and outright lie about Santorum's and the Republican's platform,...and example is Obama's speeches about the "Republican War on Women". How the President can lay down to sleep at night when he spent the day lying, is beyond me.
Up until about three weeks ago I was a Santorum supporter. No more. We have to unite as a party in order to unite as a Nation. So now I am not only comfortable supporting Mitt Romney, I am excited about our chances of wining the White House and not only bringing a screeching halt to the collective socialism and anti-constitutional direction of the Obama Administration, but moving forward as a conservative nation with personal freedoms and market based capitalism as the focal point to restore the promise of this Country and our status as the beacon to the world.
Cowboys and the Tea Party political movement have a lot on common. Both believe in individual responsibility; judging a man by his actions not words; and, both are disgusted with government intrusions into our lives and particularly our God given rights.

Romney Attacked By Other Mormons
While it is no hidden fact that Mitt Romney's father was born in Mexico, many people don't know the extent of Mormonism with the at-large Hispanic community. It makes sense since many young Mormon men and women do two year missions all over the world in fact, bringing the Mormon brand
of Christianity to others. I studied Mormonism for almost two years, attending classes at a local Temple, recieving visiting missionarys before I decided not to join this Church - no major reasons , I just preferred a different brand of Christianity that was more ecletic in nature.
But recently there are articles coming out, of course propelled by the legacy media, about the extent of opposition to Mitt Romney by Hispanic Mormons based on Romney's stance on illegal immigration and path to citizenship.
In all of these articles one would find shorts quotes by Hispanic Mormons saying words to the effect, "We are not supporting him because of his stance on immigration.", "I would never vote for him, even though he is a Mormon, because of his anti-immigration stance.", etc, etc.
First of all the word or term these people are looking for is "anti-immigration". The Liberal politicians and left wing legacy media will often use the term "immigrants" to replace the term "illegal or undocumented immigrants". They know the difference yet they continue to spin and lie to pull support from conservatives and give to liberals. All conservatives not only support immigration, they also call for an more fair and streamlined immigration policy and process. Law breakers, those who are here illegally, should not get special priviledges.
Mormon Hispanics who won't vote for Romney simply because he believes in border security and a legal immigration process, are really saying Hispanics should get special priviledges,....they are voting their race/ethnic group and, are in fact, racists, pure and simple. Just like the actor Samuel L. Jackson, a very good actor by the way, who said he voted for Obama because he is black. Just think what would be said about Mel Gibson saying he will only vote for a white candidate? And of course, this would also be another racist opinion.
