Rallying To Romney
Posted by: Hugh Hewitt at 12:31 AM
A large, enthusiastic crowd gathered on extremely short notice for a last minute Long Beach, California stop for Romney tonight. I talked to the get-out-the-vote staffer who was heading back to Sacramento and the headquarters even as Romney took off for West Virginia and that state's Super Tuesday convention. The Romney team is wired, the sort of energy that cannot be faked but only flows from conviction that the political wind is at your back. Similar reports are arriving from Colorado and Georgia.
Romney clearly has momentum in California, and a win here will send the campaign into a month of head-to-head contests culminating in Ohio and Texas in early March. Expect Romney to challenge McCain to a series of one-on-one debates that McCain really cannot accept, underscoring the weakness of the McCain campaign if it has to match up against Obama. Not only would McCain be overwhelmed by the volcano of money exploding for Obama, he can't match the Illinois senator on the small screen. The recognition of the mismatch looming is adding fuel to the Romney rally.
Romney by contrast has enormous energy and an appeal built on the future, not the past. He can easily raise the money necessary to contest the next eight months until public financing takes over on 9/1, and he would easily best Obama in one-on-ones on television.
Romney has reassembled the Reagan coalition and may have done so just in time to save the GOP from lapsing into its pre-Reagan days. If the Huck vote continues to dwindle at the rate it has been fading over the past ten days, tomorrow could have many surprises.
Romney thanked Rush, Sean, Laura, Mark Levin, Lars Larson and others among the conservative punditry for leading the rally. If he can keep it close tomorrow, the shift to him will accelerate as the GOP decides to contest 2008 on the basis of free markets, free minds, traditional values, and victory in the war --in short, on a 2008 edition of the 1980 platform.

A vote for Mitt is a Vote to end illegal immigration INSANITY!!!
Now is the time to unite behind the one Candidate who will stick to his word on ending and reversing illegal immigration.
Whatever your differences with Romney, face it you have two choices, A socialist or Mc Cain, an avowed open borders advocate who I will never believe is being truthful when he says he is now against illegal immigration, too much water under the bridge!
RP voters concrened about any affliation Romney may or may not have with CLR, what is your point in damning the one man who can save us on the issue of illegal immigration, to lose to Dems or Mc Cain.
Ron Paul and Huckabee willl not win, Romney is our only hope! Let us Unite to fight illegal immigration, other issues we can deal with later, lets beat illegal immigration, VOTE MITT ROMNEY!!!!"Â*An appeaser is someone who feds a crocidile hoping to be eaten last " Winston Churchill

I think the American people are too smart to send it McCains way. He is not sincere and you can see right through is snitty remarks during the debates. If America wants at least another 4 years of amnesty then that is the way it is.
We will still fight the senate and congress. We will try to stop McCain in his shoes. Maybe after 4 years of McCain, America will be willing to wise up.
But right now today, my bets are with the American people.<div>''Life's tough......it's even tougher if you're stupid.''
