I like him. I'm a Republican and I have looked at all the candidates closely. McCain scares me because his temper gets him into trouble and who the heck knows what really happened to him those years he was held hostage in Vietnam. Giuliani's kids hate him, which doesn't sound good but I also think that he doesn't have the experience. Romney seems like a good guy, great father and family man, excellent business man and a strong leader. I would rather have a Mormon than someone without any religious beliefs whose head is so big that they think they ARE God.

His track record is a very good one and he seems to be a very nice fellow. Would he be a capable president of the USA? Who can tell? I believe that he would be far better than Hillary Clinton or Obama. At this moment in time I still have not decided who I will vote for in 08. I will probably have a better idea by the end of this year.
