For establishment Republican's a lot of sentiment is given to "who's turn" it is to be the candidate. That's how we were saddled with Bob Dole and later John McCain who were more eminently uninspired and unelectable.

Many of the party leadership think it's Romney's "turn" to be the candidate and have this unproven theory that his "appeal to the middle" will make him the better candidate. The fallacy of this is that if I want a candidate "more to the left" to vote for, I'll vote for the Democrat. Why vote for a "wannabe". My example would be "John McCain 2008".

The great Ronald Reagan proved that if a candidate can espouse conservative idea's, conservative values, love of country, and optimism in the future, he will resonate with the true majority of this country. Those people who toil daily to provide for themselves and their families, praise the Lord regularly for their good fortune, and look to themselves and not a government benefactor for their future security.

Nobody verbalizes those value points better, at this time, than Gov. Rick Perry. Mitt Romney is OK with me, but he's not as dynamic or convincing. Either one with Marco Rubio as V.P. will be hard to beat.
