There won't be any interns in the chambers after hours. The way he took the Salt Lake Olympics from scandal to success was impressive. Maybe with his Mormon upbringings there will be a renewal of respect towards women and children in our country. The guy is intelligent, motivated. Education, hard work, industry will be encouraged.

And I'm sure being handsome and wealthy he's lived life to the fullest and I certainly don't begrudge him that. You have to give credit where it's due. Mitt is a Great Speaker and Orator.

Yes, he makes many in America, including some of the very candidates he's running against, look bad on an ethical and moral level because he's a straight-shooter. As for his supposed flip-flopping on abortion, his position in MA was that he would support the current law as a duely instituted law of the land decided by the Supreme Court. (What's remarkable about that?) He has never said or written that he personally supports abortion.

Can there be any doubt that Ron Paul is who this country needs? A man of the utmost integrity and a man of humility. But most importantly, a man with the right ideas – of tolerance, of love, of freedom, and – of course – of the people. Ron Paul is in the thick of this race. Almost 30,000 proud Americans already have cast their ballots for Ron Paul in both Iowa and New Hampshire: 1. Romney 103,755 30% 2. McCain 102,361 29% 3. Huckabee 66,876 19% 4. Paul 29,648 9% 5. Giuliani 24,151 7% 6. Thompson 18,712 5% Looks shouldn't figure into the election.

W. Bush. He continues to be attractive even at his current age 84. Presidents Reagan, Clinton and G. W. Bush were all very attractive in their younger age. Actually probably the last unattractive President was Pres. Nixon. However the only one that got elected purely on looks was JFK. Probably the most handsome President we've had recently is George H.

I'm no fan of Mitt Romney's, but this is pathetic. If this is the best that the "best political team on television" can produce, why don't you guys just quit pretending, fire your current staff, and hire the presenters of "Entertainment Tonight" and the TV Guide channel.
